Dahlias and lisianthus are a match made in heaven! These beauties are going to Simon and Clara's new teacher. I'm so grateful for the incredible educators who invest so much in helping out kids learn and grow 🌸

The dahlias are showing up and showing off! The rain and cooler weather are exactly what we all need right now.
These beauties will be at the Utah Flower Market tomorrow.

It's dahlia season and everyday I love seeing new blooms in the garden. This dahlia is new to the farm and definitely a keeper. It ticks all of the boxes: beautiful color, large flowers, and early and prolific bloomer! Meet Bloomquist Alan 🌸

"I want to observe the ordinary things of earth—the moon, the stars, the rainbows, even the yellow leaves of the old cherry trees—and receive their messages. To hear them say what every weary traveler, every earnest seeker, longs to hear. Welcome home."

"In my own worst seasons I've come back from the colorless world of despair by forcing myself to look hard, for a long time, at a single glorious thing: a flame of red geranium outside my bedroom window. And then another: my daughter in a yellow dress. And another: the perfect outline of a full, dark sphere behind the crescent moon. Until I learned to be in love with my life again." - Barbara Kingsolver

There is a galaxy of nigella about to bloom in my garden! I love the star shaped form and feathery foliage of this little accent flower. I also love that it can be used in all of the stages of maturity - as a fresh cut flower, a seed pod, or dried. When these little flowers are tucked into an arrangement or wrapped bouquet they make it sparkle!
05/15/2024
I love when I have the opportunity to play with flowers and create something unique!
If you need flowers to celebrate someone special in your life - or for yourself - let me know.
I offer premium wrapped bouquets for $30 and custom arrangements starting at $50. Just DM me to place an order.
I'll also be teaching a Garden to Vase workshop on Saturday, June 22 at the if you are interested in the basics of creating your own arrangements!

This poem is one of my favorites and captures the essence of the work we do as mothers and women (and farmers). Our days are filled with a million tiny moments of cultivating creation and bringing order to chaos. Happy Mother's Day!
Creation Continued
by Carol Lynn Pearson
I will continue
To create the universe today
Right where God left off.
Little pockets of chaos
Somehow survived the ordering
And I feel moved
To move upon them
As in the beginning
The Spirit of God moved
Upon the face of the waters.
I will move upon my backyard today
And the weeds will be subdued
And the flowers can grow
And it will be good.
I will move long distance
Upon a broken heart
And leave a little balm
And it will be good.
I will move upon the hunger of my children
With salad and spaghetti
Which is Emily's favorite
And it will good
And even they will say so.
And I will move too upon their minds,
Leaving a little poem
Or an important thought
And that will be even better
Though they won't say so.
I will move upon
Birth defects and AIDS
With five and ten dollar checks
To help the scientists
Who are battling the big chaos
And I will move upon world hunger
With a twenty-four dollar check
For little Marilza in Brazil
And it will be good.
I will move upon
The kitchen floor
And the dirty laundry
And a blank piece of paper
And at the end of the day
Have a little creation to show.
And the evening and the morning
Are my eighteen thousand
and ninety-sixth day
And tomorrow will start another one.
And here is chaos and there is chaos
And who knows if creation
Will finally be done?

It's the most wonderful time of the year! The ranunculus are blooming ❤️
Ranunculus are one of my favorite flowers because of their lush fluffy layers of petals and long vase life! They can last more than 10 days after they are cut and come in so many gorgeous colors.
This ranunculus was left in the ground last season, overwintered without any protection, and was the first to bloom.

"We are showered every day with gifts, but they are not meant for us to keep. Their life is in their movement, the inhale and the exhale of our shared breath. Our work and our joy is to pass along the gift and to trust that what we put out into the universe will always come back."
Robin Wall Kimmerer

"In a world of too much information about almost everything, bodily practices can provide great relief. To make bread or love, to dig in the earth, to feed an animal or cook for a stranger - these activities require no extensive commentary, no lucid theology. All they require is someone willing to bend, reach, chop, stir. Most of these tasks are so full of pleasure that there is no need to complicate things by calling them holy. And yet these are the same activities that change lives, sometimes all at once and sometimes more slowly, the way dripping water changes stone." - Barbara Brown Taylor

This is the nature of spring flowers. You turn your back for a minute and they burst into bloom!
We came back from a few days in southern Utah to find so many gorgeous narcissus showing off. If you need some of this sunshine in your life this weekend let me know.

I began growing things in my deepest grief.
My heart was shattered by the death of our young son and I desperately needed peace and healing.
So God called me outside, to the mountains and the wilderness and the land surrounding my home. I walked and wandered and searched for comfort.
I dug up grass and planted seeds. Sometimes there was struggle and sometimes there was an unexpected abundance.
As I spent time in nature and moved my body and tried to nurture small plants I felt connected to something greater than myself. I saw the incredible beauty of creation and witnessed the impermanence of each season.
It helped me process and accept the incredible sorrow that saturated my days, and my heart began to slowly heal.
As I healed I learned that God intends to give us more than healing. God can give us renewal and abundance.
When I began growing flowers I wondered if I was allowed to spend so much time and energy creating something just for its beauty. I thought I should grow something more practical, something edible.
But I saw reckless beauty in nature and flowers called to me and so I followed.
They have renewed me. They have taught me that life is more than suffering and surviving. There is space for beauty in our lives. Their beauty is a source of life and connection and healing for others.
I love this quote from Christie Purifoy:
"God does not erase our losses, those empty places in our lives, but he does something almost more miraculous. He fills the loss with a sign of his presence."
When I'm in my garden I see God everywhere and I feel so grateful for all of the heartache and healing and beauty I've experienced.
Happy Easter friends! May you find the healing, hope, and renewal you seek in God's grace and the beauty of this world.

"Our human inheritance is an eagerness to climb stairways to heaven and send rockets to the moon. We dream big and aim high, yet ironically it is when we bend low to the ground, when we give our full attention to the dirt right around our feet, when we devote ourselves to tending and caring and planting, that we really do change the world." - Christie Purifoy

Here are some of the beautiful ranuculus I am growing this season! I'm still perfecting my timing on these fickle little flowers, but things are looking good so far. Our growing zone change from 6b to 7a has helped (thanks global warming 🤔)
I have some that overwintered from last season and some that I planted in the winter. If all goes according to plan 🤞 I'll have some incredible blooms to share with you in May and June!
Despite being a little extra, ranuculus are one of my favorite flowers to grow because they have such a long vase life, price lots of stems and their fluffy layers of petals are to die for.
If you need more flowers in your life consider signing up for my spring flower share! It starts at the end of April and I only have a few more spots available (link in bio)

The women in my life have taught me how to grow things.
I have watched them cultivate and nourish seeds and souls. They have generously shared with me how to prepare good ground and weather fierce storms. I have witnessed them move through difficult seasons and celebrate a good harvest.
We are often told that we reap what we sow, but I know the truth is that I'm harvesting more than I've sown.
I'm the beneficiary of the collective efforts of generations of seed sowers - women who believed in equality and kindness and education and community who had the faith to try to grow something beautiful.
I hope I can do the same 🌸
Happy International Women's Day!

As I walked around my garden this morning I noticed this first little anemone bloom! It's the first flower of the season and definitely an overachiever.
I have felt a lot of anxiety and heartache lately about the suffering and conflict in the world. Maybe you feel the same way.
Somehow being in my garden and seeing things grow helps me feel better. It's empowering for me to put some of my energy into making the world more beautiful - instead of just absorbing it's pain.
Michelle Obama said "The world will always be beautiful and broken." That feels true to me. I think sometimes we have to carve out more space for beauty in our lives.
How do you make space for beauty in your life?

I'm always looking for small moments of beauty in my life. It helps me to ground myself in the present and keep things in perspective. Here are 5 beautiful things I've discovered this week:
1. My paperwhites are blooming. They are so delicate but incredibly fragrant. I bought way too many when they were on sale at Lowe's and I don't regret it at all!
2. I made my first sourdough loaves after taking a class at the . It is a long process (~36 hours), but I successfully made some delicious bread!
3. My amaryllis are in full bloom and they make me happy everyday. It's been fun to see all of the amazing varieties.
4. I finished the book Shark Heart by Emily Habeck and loved it so much. It's about relationships and grief and people who turn into animals like komodo dragons and great white sharks. The layers of meaning and poignant writing were breathtaking.
5. The writer Sarah Bessey wrote a beautiful IG post about nourishing ourselves instead of depriving or punishing ourselves. It really resonated with me as a farmer and mother. Nourishment is the only way to grow good things. I'll share her post in my stories.
What beautiful things have you found in your life this week?

I wasn't sure I would like this Lemon Star Amaryllis, but it has these lovely creamy shimmering petals and tall elegant stems. I also love the green center!

Narcissus (daffodils) are one of the first flowers to bloom on the farm. Just like tulips, narcissus come in early, mid, and late blooming varieties. Usually we have a continuous stream of gorgeous fragrant blooms from early April to Mother's Day.
These are all of the amazing narcissus that we are growing this year!

I feel like this chick this week! Spring is such a busy season. It feels like there is always more to do. I have to remind myself that rest is an important part of productivity and not a luxury. All living things need rest. How do you make space for rest in your busy seasons? Also, why do I feel like I should buy all the baby chicks 😂 #rest #seasons #babychicks #easter #spring #springishere #babyanimals
