SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY!! 💐

The farmstand is open for flower friends and PEONY ROOTS were just added to the stand!!

These roots will last generations and produce the most beautiful coral blooms 😍

They can still be planted by using a drill auger OR you can store them until spring when the ground thaws OR you can plant in a pot!

The OFFICIAL official end of fresh cut flowers on the farm. Last night our high tunnel finally got hit with a hard freeze, which means so did the final flowers I had in there. I was hanging onto a few plants just to say I grew my own Thanksgiving flowers 💐

We cut a bouquet yesterday to put on our table for this weekends festivities and totally forgot to bring it inside 😭 It was still quite the accomplishment to say I had fresh flowers blooming up until November 25th in zone 4 Minnesota! 🤯

P.s. keep you eyes open for a special post about this weekend and our flower farm offerings from our farm stand for Black Friday and Small Business Saturday 🎄

The nice fall weather has allowed me to take my time with fall planting…which I’m so thankful for!

Our spring tulips are finally done being planted! If you didn’t know, we grow tulips as annuals and it’s always a big project to get them all planted. Thankful for extra helping hands this season to get the job done ✅

3,500 in our high tunnel
3,500 in our outdoor field space
1,000 in crates that will be brought into the high tunnel in the spring to manipulate their bloom time 😉

Spring is going to be beautiful! 🌷💐

Never did I ever think I’d have fresh blooms from our farm in late October!

Thankful for our high tunnel space that allows us to extend our zone 4 growing season. Even though I was excited to say “yes” to these orders this week along with a few more orders, we’re pretty much done with fresh blooms…

Tulip bulbs for fall planting in your own home gardens will be available very soon!!! 🌷

Lastt week, I had the joy of creating an everlasting arrangement out of dried florals from our farm!

I have really loved the process of growing and drying flowers to use. So much so that I purposely planted more blooms this past season to dry more, but I ended up needing all of them for fresh orders!

Next years plan is even more flowers in hopes of more dried arrangements ☺️💐

Spent the majority of my 32nd birthday in the best place - right in the heart of my flower garden. 🌸

Surrounded by blooms, sunshine, and peace, I couldn’t have asked for a better way to celebrate. Grateful for another year of growth, both in the flower field and in life. 🌱

Here’s to new seasons, fresh blooms, and all the beauty yet to come. Thank you to those who took time out of your day to say hi and send your best birthday wishes ☺️

P.S. currently saving celosia seed from this beautiful variety that i need more of next year!

2024 season coming to a close…
2024 season coming to a close…

It is the LAST WEEK of flowers from the farm 🥺💐These beauties are heading out the door today. It was my last day of bulk bouquet making for the season….I have come along way in designing and growing florals that do well together and I have already sat down to plan next year’s flower fields! So grateful for such a wonderful season ☺️

The 2023 growing season in 23 seconds 🌱💐

A little farm news sneak peek 🫣 🦆 We’re really excited to learn all there is to know about having ducks on the farm! They love to eat bugs and slugs without scratching and eating your garden vegetation. We don’t deal with much pest pressure here on the farm….EXCEPT for slugs. Hoping these new friends will help us with that! ;) Their compost and eggs are going to be an additional benefit! Now the snow just needs to melt away so we can have a home for these cuties! Do you have experience with ducks?! If so, I’d love to hear your tips,tricks, and advice! 👇 Also, shout out to our friend Erin and her son for doing a wonderful job raising ducklings and letting us be very excited customers☺️

The growing space is officially full and we have so many more seeds to start! Patiently waiting for the warmer weather to arrive so that many of these plant babies can head outside and make way for new ones! 🌱❄️

✨Dahlia Obsessed ✨ I’m currently working on my dahlia plans for the 2023 season in hopes that it goes better than this past year. The tubers were planted a little later than I’d hoped, which in return produced late blooms. There were only a few to enjoy before the first frost came and wiped them out. Having a protected high tunnel for indoor growing will surely help 👌 Looking forward to sharing more about that soon! ;)
