This post is just a little bit different, itâs a kind of dear diary post for those who love to have a nosey lol!
What is the farm, why do you do it, what do you do ?
The flower farm for me is first and foremost a place of calm and serenity.
Itâs my space to relax, Be myself and be creative. The sense of accomplishment and achievement to watch the simplest of things in life that really cost nothing. To plant a seed and watch it grow never ceases to amaze me, the beauty of Creation is all around us.
The wildlife that also enjoy this space just blows my mind every day, from the tiny wrens with their newly hatched brood in the polytunnel to the thrushs and blackbirds darting up and down between the flower beds and rooting around in the flowerbeds for slugs snails and wee flies And The robins are always close by following you round after weeding looking for their next meal too. Evening time brings out the moths and my goodness they are huge!!
The days come and go just as quickly as the seasons, but Iâm so grateful for my space and my time here to soak up every tiny little thing.
The flower farm is producing an abundance of flowers and itâs turning out to be a lovely summer.
Iâm not trying to grow thousands of different flowers, just enough for my own retail customers and brides. Im content to work and be on my own and not part of a rat race. Keeping life simple, growing flowers and some seasonal fruit and veg.
If my flowers bring half as much joy to others as they do for me then thatâs more than enough for me.
