Flora Borealis

This one was just for me. I was feeling a little off earlier in the week, and I’ve been learning that it means I need to get out of the house and do something for myself. So I filled a bucket with water and grabbed my snips to go enjoy the flowers - instead of working in them. I cut little bits and bobs, and brought them into the kitchen to rest in water. The next day I got inspired to make an arrangement. It was fun and made me realize I need to play in the flowers a lot more than I do. So this is my ode to the first dahlias of our season (yep you read that right). The next couple of weeks will be filled with their blooms!!

Our Subscription bouquets went out the door this evening. The season is almost over and I’m like 👀 where did the time go??

So what do we think about these muddy moody colour palettes? Love ‘em, hate ‘em? Indifferent? I’m growing three “muddy” coloured lisianthus this year and need to decide if they’re making the cut for next year 😉.

Playing with flowers 🌸. When does a floppy tulip not look so sad? When you pair it with bleeding hearts who are just hanging out doing their thang 💃🏻

So here’s a little ditty I worked on over the holidays. It’s filled with lots of goodies saved and dried from the farm. The gorgeous lunaria was a gift from my neighbour. If you look closely you’ll even see some luscious peonies! So are dried flowers your vibe? Love them, hate them? Think I should make more wreaths?

I took a lovely break from social media over the holidays - it felt so good to detach and concentrate on our family and a peaceful rest. Our time wasn’t all comfort though. For about two weeks our central heat was down and we were lighting our stove heater and using electric heaters around the house. We would turn everything off overnight and temps would dive to 14C by the morning. Let’s just say, I was wrapped in a blanket, with a hot magic bag on my lap for a while there! Thankfully our heat was repaired last week and I have NEVER appreciated the basic necessity (luxury) of a warm home more than I do now. These dried flowers and the warm light surrounding them emulates the gratitude I feel for being safe and warm on these cold winter days. How were your holidays?

The last subscription deliveries went out the door yesterday. So bitter-sweet but also it felt like we really finished the season strong. Check out those juicy colours!!

You’ll still find us at the farmers market for the next couple of weeks. Come get your flower fix before the season ends 💕

Playing with flowers🥰. I took a stroll through the cutting garden today. It was overcast with a small breeze and these blooms called to me one by one.

The days are shifting…..the evening light is becoming more golden and that feeling deep inside that implores you to savour these moments is bubbling to the surface….

I want to THANK EVERYONE from the bottom of my heart for spreading the word, cheering us on and coming out to support our spontaneous pop-up Flower Market yesterday in Ancaster. You filled my heart with joy 💕💕💕. People came from FAR AWAY to buy flowers for themselves and others and we had such lovely conversations and laughs.

There are days when I wonder if what I’m doing is important or meaningful in any way— and yesterday you reminded me that this work IS cherished. I’m very humbled by our community’s support💕

I hope you have a wonderful week— and please know that you have set a fire in this flower farmers heart 🔥💕🔥💕

Yesterday wouldn’t have been possible without my friend and fellow flower magician who didn’t hesitate to offer her home as a pop up location. Thank you! Thank you my dear friend!! We had so much fun!!!

Today I spent some time outside tending to the flowers. My neighbour has a wind chime that sounds exactly like a spoon stirring tea. The sound filled me with anticipation of a warm mug in my hand and a joyful conversation with my mom 💕.
