This stunner stopped us in our tracks this fall! This is peaches ‘n cream, which is usually has more soft pink and white! Look at those almost iridescent tips🤩! This just goes to show how unique each bloom can be on the same plant! If you love unique late season blooms like these, you might want to snatch up one of our fall flower subscriptions! They are loaded with late season blooms like these that are delivered to your door! (The summer delivery options have sold out already! 😱) Or if you like to grow your own, we will have at least some of these in our dahlia tuber sale coming up in the next month! #peachesncreamdahlia #peachesncream #dahlias #fallflowers #illinoisflowerfarm
Even after working in the field all day long, my favorite thing to do is leisurely walk around the flowers at sunset every evening during the growing season. I love to check on the progress of all of our little plants, take stock of what’s blooming, and pull weeds. I make a game of watching all the little critters like fuzzy, pollen-drunk bees sleeping in the cosmos, or the bunnies who get the zoomies just before the sun goes down. It helps me to feel grounded and remember why we do this. It also brings about a feeling of deep connection to my dad and grandma who both loved sunsets so much. ✨I once read that watching a sunset is one of the most powerful practices we can do to grow our trust and faith. Every single one of us has experienced hurt, broken trust, or disappointment on some level as humans. Yet, deep in our soul, as we watch the sun sink behind the horizon and give way to the dark of night, there is a knowing that it will rise again tomorrow, bringing with it the light. Such a simple, but profound meditation. ✨We are taking a few days off to unwind a bit before we head forth into all of our winter tasks. Please enjoy some of my favorite sunsets from 2024. We wish you all the child-like wonder and joy in this new year!🌸 #sunset #sunsetlovers #flowerfarming #flowerfarm #flowerfarminglife
I swear, we did not plan to say Merry Christmas in unison at the end…we may spend too much time together 😂😂😂 #flowerfarm #flowerfarmer #locallygrownflowers
Our hoop house redo is finally done! We decided to build raised bed this year so we can control the weeds better, control the quality of the soil, and also make better use of the space. The walkways are a bit more narrow due to the size of the beds, but harvesting and weeding will be much easier! Ranunculus and anemones are almost completely tucked in for the winter! This took us longer than expected, and being sick cut into that time, but the payoff will be worth it when we see those beautiful blooms kicking in this spring! #ranunculus #greenhouse #greenhousegardening #ranunculusflower #hoophouse
Our flower subscriptions are such a unique and special gift! These large bouquets feature seasonal flowers that we grow right here on our farm and are delivered weekly for 6 weeks during either our summer or fall session! We send a pretty magnet for gifting with the dates of the subscription so they have a constant reminder of the beauty to come! These are so perfect to remind someone how much you love them and they also help support our farm this time of year when we are purchasing all the seeds/bulbs/supplies for our 2025 growing season! This weekend only, make any purchase over $100 and receive an additional $15 bouquet voucher to use at the market or farm stand! No code needed! #dahlias #dahliaseason #flowerfarm #flowerfarmer
