Maine Flower Show - Garden Cocktail Inspiration

The Maine Flower Show is coming up at the end of March to Thompson’s Point. That must mean gardening, warm weather, and bright colors are right around the corner!

The Maine Flower show is a huge garden and flower show where landscapers, enthusiasts, and designers come together to immerse themselves in the smells, colors, and trends of Maine horticulture. It is always such a fun and beautiful event! 

Whether you make it to the show or not, let’s think about full gardens and warm weather while we sip on these garden and florally inspired cocktails!
