I'm so pleased to be offering CSA Bouquet Subscriptions for a third year!

New this year, CSA subscribers can enjoy free delivery to Hamilton, as well as Keokuk!

Also new are the early and late season subscriptions. This is something I have been working on for 2 years, and it's finally possible!

As always, subscription certificates are printed on lovely glossy stock and include complimentary gift wrapping.

Happy holidays from The Flower Mom!

My first wander into the garden since my surgery, and I am blown away! Apparently, Mother Nature didn't get the memo that it's mid-November.

The everbearing raspberries are still fruiting, there are tomatoes on the vine, and my irises are loaded with blooms. Anything I didn't cut back is somehow still verdant, if not in full flower. Plus, my "winter kill" cover crop looks like it will require some manual action before it bolts.

Isn't funny how every season is so different?

Merry Frostmas Eve!

We'll have overnight freezing temps, so anything tender must be harvested, moved indoors or have cuttings taken to create the next generation.

Don't forget to disconnect your hoses!
