New York Flower Farm

Cultivating Biodiversity in the Hudson Valley

  • The New York Flower Farm, founded and operated by Mackenzie Younger, specializes in cultivating, curating and selling native plants to public via farmers markets and landscape design projects.

  • Over the next five years, the New York Flower Farms mission is to create a line of distinctive native plant offerings for nationwide shipping, while helping local residents achieve their garden and landscape design goals.

  • Plants are available at the Ellenville Farmers Market every Wednesday from 3:00–7:00PM, June through October.

    For landscape design projects or plant sourcing inquiries please contact us at hello@newyorkflowerfarm.com

  • The New York Flower Farm is a small, land-based operation growing native plants across two properties—one outside Wallkill, NY, and the other high in the Shawangunk Mountains near Ellenville. Both sites are privately owned and zoned for mixed residential and agricultural use. While the Wallkill property is dedicated solely to cultivation, the Ellenville location is occasionally open to the public for seasonal tours.

He studied Painting at the Rhode Island School of Design, Botany at Brown University, and Landscape Design at the New York Botanical Garden. In 2015, he co-founded Native NY Gardens, and in 2017, debuted his notable painting series Jackets.

  • Are You a Landscape Designer?

    Landscape design projects require a lot of coordination—and not all landscape designers are native plant experts.

    If your client is looking for something ecologically impactful and aesthetically beautiful, we can help you bring that vision to life by curating, sourcing, delivering, and even installing the native plants your project needs.

  • Lets Plan for Next Spring!

    With summer heat already here, you might feel like you’ve missed your window to plant—but don’t worry. Take a deep breath.

    Fall is actually the best time to plant. It gives roots time to settle in so your plants can truly thrive next year.
