It was our first outdoor planting day of 2025! It felt so good to get outside and get some sun on our faces! Our second round of ranunculus and anemones went into their outside beds that we prepared in the fall. These will be blooming during the tail end of our spring flower subscription! Spring is coming, ya’ll!🙌🏻🌷✨

This may be an unpopular opinion, but it’s kind of crazy that the biggest flower holiday falls during the off-season for the majority of flower farmers in the U.S! Some farms have started growing tulips indoors in the winter, (which is awesome!) but winter is a time for the two of us to rest a little and dive deep into planning and planting for the upcoming growing season, while also working with our dried flowers, dividing dahlia tubers, and catching up on a million tasks that get set aside during the chaos of the flower growing season. Our flower subscriptions and bouquet packages are a great way to give one bouquet or a series of bouquets to your loved one, while still supporting us little guys👨🏻‍🌾👩🏻‍🌾They are perfect for someone who loves flowers or nature, someone who loves supporting local farms and businesses, or someone who appreciates uniqueness and creativity, because you will not find flowers like ours in a grocery store. Our flower subscriptions and bouquet packages are a promise of beauty to come and a reflection of a true labor of love. Both come with cards for gifting, which we usually mail, but if it comes down to the wire, let us know if you purchase yours and need to pick yours up!

02/07/2025

It’s easy to forget how many different types of bodies we actually inhabit in our lifetime. Little babies, stumbling curious toddlers, more independent middle school age bodies, teenagers who can’t wait to be adults, adults that wish they were young again, and if we are lucky, older bodies with so much to teach.

This man, my almost 83 year old grandpa who we live with, has been teaching me since I can remember. He’s taught me how to play and be silly no matter what age. He’s taught me how to use tools and build things. He’s taught me to how to have vision and how to make that vision come to life. He’s taught me the importance of family and how to take care of each other, no matter what. He’s taught me to always be kind to everyone and to help when you can, in whatever way you can. And he’s taught me the importance of working hard and to do something that’s enjoyable if you can, because so much of your life is spent working.

My sweet grandpa has had some serious chronic health issues over the last few years and we are lucky enough to be here with him to walk him through them. They’ve affected his ability to do anything physical, his memory, and cognitive processes. This has been really tough for him for many reasons, especially because he’s not been able to get outside and work on things like he’s always done. He’s always been the strongest go-to guy of our family who would lift things with super-human strength!

Each day varies on how he is feeling, and it can even vary from hour to hour. So today, when he asked if we had something he can help us do, I was thrilled to find him a job! He helped us sticker tons of our bouquet sleeves with us in the workshop. He kept saying how much fun he was having and how he was so glad to help!

This man is still teaching me. Every. Single. Day. Some of the lessons have been hard, and those are the ones I’m most grateful for. Lessons in patience, humility, the ability to not take things personally, to trust my gut, and the fact that everyone needs to feel purposeful, needed, and remembered, no matter what type of body they are in. No matter what kind of day he is having, he still approaches life with a light heart. Even when it seems like a situation that’s not funny… he finds a way to make me laugh. I’m so grateful to have this time with him and for the lessons he will continue to teach me!

My hope is that this spring or summer when you see our flowers, you will remember this story and the extra joy that went into these special bouquets you take home, right down to the stickers!

Thank you all SO MUCH for kicking our spring flower subscription sale off with a bang! It’s by far our craziest time of year with planting and harvesting, but we are so excited to see all the color again that we barely notice the sore backs and lack of sleep😂 We still have some spring spots available if you missed the opening!

We call our spring blooms✨precious✨ because they have to be planted in the fall and fight hard during the winter to survive the cold temps.💪 In turn, they grow deep, strong roots to help them bloom for spring. They are survivors. The product of their survival provides food for all of the newly emerging pollinators, creates oxygen and purifies the air, and brings a much needed dose of color for us humans who are emerging out of the grey winter. What an honor it is to help facilitate this miracle! If you or someone you know could benefit from these 🌸beautiful survivors🌸 please join us for our six week spring flower subscription. Available Saturday at 10am for spring delivery or pickup.

Lots of green in the hoop houses! Our hoop houses are not heated, but you would be shocked at the steam that comes out of them on days like today. Jared’s giving all these ranunculus a good watering now that the snow and ice have melted and temps are going up! Spring is going to be a flower explosion! 💥 🌸💥

I cannot express to you how heavy the pretty armloads shots typically are! Especially the spring tulip armloads that still have the bulbs attached! Jared would agree that this is probably the most stress inducing part of our job because we are usually grouchy and tired walking into the house at the end of a hard day and then one of us says, “we forgot to take a photo!” So back to the cooler we go to pile up the most beautiful blooms we can find. One of us has quivering arms and the other gets frustrated for being told, “just a few more, the lighting is wrong.” Can you guess who is who?!🤣🤣🤣 But, hey, it’s all in the name of spreading love and joy through flowers, right?!

This spring will have EXTRA beautiful flower shots because all of our spring bulbs and plants are looking fantastic! If you love spring blooms, don’t miss joining our spring flower subscription which launches Saturday (Feb 1st) at 10am!🌸🌸🌸

It still blows our mind that dried flowers can be this vibrant! We’ve been working to get as many wreaths as we can ready for you for tomorrow’s sale! It’s a very tedious process (especially with just two people) so if we don’t have enough to go around for everyone tomorrow, don’t worry! We will have more wreath sales in the near future! These will be available on our website tomorrow (Friday) at 6pm!

Our summer flower subscription delivery options are now SOLD OUT!🤯 We DO have some delivery options for our fall flower subscription which is full of dahlias, sunflowers, zinnias, cosmos, celosia, and lots of late season blooms just like these!
