Blessings Blends, Flowers, Local Produce, Route 1, OMRI Listed Premium Compost, Milford, Delaware
In early spring, Blessings Blend is one of the first to have flowers out on Rt. 1, South of Milford. The actual location of Blessings Greenhouses and Compost Facility Retail Center is the corner of Rt. 1 (north) and Sugar Hill Rd.
Driving to or from the Delaware Beaches you might have seen these 2 giant tomatoes. That’s the location!!
I decided to stop and get some peaches and tomatoes. To tell you the truth, tomatoes this year have not been the greatest, in my opinion. These tomatoes ended up having a pretty good taste. I can’t believe it took almost all summer to find them.
The peaches were sweet and juicy. They told me all their produce is locally grown.
You learn something new every day and I found out that the owner of Blessings Blends, Bruce Blessing…I have not met him, developed a premium compost that is being used on golf courses and farms on the Delmarva Peninsula. For the second year in a row he has been selling it bagged and bucketed at his flower and produce stand located on Rt. 1. It has taken him 6 years to develop it.
I really don’t anything about “composting”, but, learned that this Premium Compost has received an OMRI (Organics Material Review Institute) Listing .5-.5-.4.
There are hundreds of organic farmers in the Chesapeake and Delaware watersheds and Blessings Blends will be targeting them, since they have gotten the OMRI Listed Premium Compost.

In the meantime, safe travels as you leave Summer of 2013, and begin the Second Season at the Delaware Beaches…this produce stand is open!!
