In this photo, you can see the lovely American Dahlia Society Bonneyville Mill Park Garden. Dahlias are also known as the Valley Flower because the word “Dahl” is similar in sound to the Swedish equivalent of “Valley.” Many people grow them because they bloom longer than most garden plants.
In the Victorian era, Dahlias symbolized a lasting bond and lifelong commitment between two people, and on the day we arrived at the Bonneyville Mill a wedding party was just exiting the location.
There are walking paths and plenty of picnic tables nearby so it makes a great spot to stop for a picnic or you might want to plan in advance and utilize it for a wedding, engagement, or class photo.

Thanks for checking out this posting! We love to tour old Mills and occasionally purchase flour from them. I know there is glass work and often other perishable products available- what do you purchase when touring a Mill?
