A variety of sunflowers and dahlias were offset by peegee hydrangea blossoms, and given height and greenery by&#8230;.yep, cornstalk tops!  I&#8217;m sure I never would have thought of putting in the corn, but it looked really lovely.<\/p>\n<p>After lunch we made some wreaths from dried flowers, then picked peaches and nectarines.  We finished the day by buying yummies from their little market, including purple basil jelly, blueberry bread, and fresh-picked fall red raspberries.  It was a wonderful day.  Hurd&#8217;s have plenty more opportunities to enjoy the farm throughout the fall and right up to Christmas.
