Renovating My 92' Japanese Mini Truck into a flower truck.

10/01/2024

I was able to scrounge up enough gas found In odds and ends - a bit from a neighbor or the lawn mower - just enough to get to the airport and fly out of asheville.

I’m in shock at the devastation that hurricane Helene has brought to my beloved city and I’m feeling so tender - both for my love of this place, and for the love of everyone around who has been lending a hand - I’ve been witnessing so many acts of kindness around me these past 4 days.

Packing to leave, I felt the need to pick some goldenrod, and tucked a few acorns from my favorite tree in my right pocket, just because my connection to this place is so palpable and the grief of leaving it behind hurt so much.

I feel guilty for leaving this community and tiny meadow - the hurricane has left most of us here without cell service, water, or power, and entire homes, and business have been wiped out that I dearly love.

I couldn’t even check on the farm before I left but I just got word that Tiny Meadow is okay there was some flooding but it’s most intact and will bounce back quickly. ❤️

It’s been comforting to see signs of resilience after the storm; hummingbirds, the sun peeks through the clouds, and the zinnias in my front garden remain intact. Nature is resilient.

Now that I am not In Asheville I’ll be posting as much as I can about resources I hear of, or anything that can be of help and if you’re not from around here and want to help, please consider donating to
I love you Asheville ❤️❤️❤️

A summer highlight: harvesting armfuls of chamomile before the rain

I figured I would do a little reintroduction since it’s been a while, and this account has grown since the last! I’m Rowen (she/they) I’m an Aries sun/Libra rising /Ta**us Moon. I’ve always been pretty reserved for an Aries, but with all the fiery determination.

This month marks 3 years since I graduated with my visual arts degree, bought a Japanese mini truck sight unseen, moved to Asheville, and started Tiny Magic Flower Truck. Throughout that time, I’ve also been working a day job in graphic design to help support my vision.

The past couple years I’ve spent remodeling my truck, learning the ins and outs of flowering, and doing pop ups all around Asheville. It’s been such a pleasure to be able to connect with the community in person which has always been one of my favorite things about this venture.

This year, I shifted towards operating out of a more sustainable business model when I started taking classes aimed at becoming a naturalist, and decided that meant growing flowers myself. We started building tiny meadow, a cut flower farm just this January.

I’ve always made it a point to grow slowly, and try to be as authentic as possible. It’s pretty chill here and I try to not add to any digital clutter and share things that I feel are truly valuable - to get to know my current community, instead of trying to increase it as much as possible. This is also why I started a YouTube channel and a newsletter because I want to connect and get to know YOU better!

I’ve had a few people asking when my next pop up is and the answer is very soon!

Pop ups will likely be less frequent as we’ve focused all our attention and resources on our flower farm. I’m currently working towards shifting towards other offerings including a CSA, bouquet subscriptions, and events and weddings, or wholesale options. We’re also working on a flower installation at revolve gallery this week 👀

The more I’ve immersed myself in flowers the more I fall in love with it, and I’m so grateful for all the support I’ve received along that way. Thanks for being here as we grow and evolve, may not always know exactly what that looks like but just know it will always involve more flowers ✨

One thing I’ve learned as I grow as a florist is that I tend to gravitate towards warm color palettes, like in the first picture, but I also love a good cool palette like in the second. Which one is your fave?

Is it just me or is instagram lately feeling.. off?

As a small business owner, I’ve always felt the pressure to be playing the algorithm, making reels, and sharing content constantly.

But lately I’ve been feeling the need to connect in ways that I feel are more authentic. Connecting in person, helping pick out flowers, and community building has always been one of my favorite things about owning Tiny Magic.

And I also felt the need to have an offering to share on the truck, so I’ve made these 10 page Riso zines, written & illustrated by me, and printed & bound by . They’re sweet little how-to’s on starting your own cut flower garden and include my must-have cut flowers. I’ll be sure to have these on the truck at my next event!

But also, I’d like to step away from Instagram being my primary platform for sharing news, so we started a newsletter called Field Notes where I’ll be sharing updates more regularly.

Field Notes will be the most reliable place to receive news and updates about the truck and farm events as well as some more unfiltered thoughts along the way.

Plus, anyone who signs up will be sent a free PDF Verizon of Grow Your Own Cutting Garden.

You can sign up via my bio!

More updates on the farm soon✨
