no they don't. Snowflakes only grow in clouds and once they drop they actually start to slowly melt. When they hit the ground they will either melt or stick and this depends on the tempature.

No, snowflakes do not continue to grow once they touch the ground. Once they land, they can be further compacted by footsteps or other forces, but they do not continue to accumulate additional ice crystals.
