Do you ever feel so grateful that you could burst? That’s how I feel this morning. I’m drinking my coffee with my dear cat Beatrice on my lap while admiring these earrings my nine-year-old son made for me last night.

The last 10 days have been a lot for me. Either working my “real job,” as a PA (which I love!) or working to get March orders around,or doing one of many other farm tasks here. Mixed in there was a major health event for a family member of mine. Life is rich but I’m short on sleep and deadlines and stressors have been pressing at me right and left.

While I worked a 12-hour shift yesterday my parents cared for LJ. Taking him to baseball practice, feeding him, getting him to school. When it was time to come home he told my mom he’d rather stay in her art studio (she specializes in copper enameling). As always, she invited him in with open arms.

He handed these to me proudly as soon as he jumped in my car last night (way past his bedtime!) He could hardly wait to pull them out of his bag. He said “I made something for you! I know you had your Dahlia cuttings sale this week open and it was a big deal. So I made these for you.” Gosh. Isn’t it good to be seen sometimes?

Don’t they look like the perfect little orange dahlias? He’s been in her studio since he was tiny, so he’s become quite skilled — I’m blown away by the detail and love he poured into these.

When I pulled up to my doorstep my cousin from (my “sister” farm!) had dropped off several pints of honey and homemade jams.

I’ll wearing these today as I finish up with a big push here. And I’m sure we’ll dive into some homemade jam too!

What’s keeping you going right now? I’m saying a little prayer for all my flower farming friends during this hectic spring push: May you have good health, strong backs, and may you be be cherished not only by the birds and bees, but by the beautiful humans in your life. .

03/22/2025

I guess I know what I’m doing this weekend! These all arrived in the mail within the last few days. 😍 let me know if you are local and feel like getting some dirt on your hands this weekend!

So exciting!

Can you believe 🌼🐰🐣 SPRING 🐥🐰🌼 is here?! Here’s a little farm update.

I’m thrilled to enter a new growing season. And I’m SWIMMING in seedlings to plant. Did you know: April is one of the busiest months on a flower farm for planting seeds into the ground and baby plants that were started inside weeks ago?

We are shippping our March dahlia orders this week also! April orders will go out starting the second week of April.

Our dahlia Cuttings sale is live on the website and there’s still a few tubers left too! Thank you to our wonderful customers for making our dahlia sales a smashing success this year! If you hurry in—there’s a really awesome selection of cuttings and tubers remaining. They’re going fast. Make sure to check in frequently—I will be doing secret 😉🤫 restocks throughout the month of April. Link in comments.

Who is ready for some gorgeous and SUPER-DUPER ESTABLISHED dahlia cuttings?

We’ll be offering little plants, really. They’ll be more sturdy than the typical dahlia cuttings—most of them shipped in two inch pots. (Yes—I have special packaging for that, no—they aren’t sharing a common water source.) I’ve outgrown my own greenhouse and have been graciously invited by Ken and Joan—owners of “The Growing Place” here in Kalamazoo to utilize some of their space. Do you see my tiny little collection of items in the giant, empty greenhouse? It is almost comical! (Don’t worry, I have about 15 times that much to bring over in the next few days.) They tell me that soon this greenhouse will be absolutely full to the brim of their plants, but they’ve also told me that I’m welcome to occupy space here with my fancy ‘lil collection of dahlias for selling, and flowers for my farm. I couldn’t be more pleased than I am, partly because I want to soak up the Ken and Joan vibe at this awesome place. They’re simply great people and do neat things like using insects to combat any insect problems within their space. Also, I MUST SHARE: Here’s their mission statement posted on their doors:

“The Growing Place exists to nurture people and plants, bringing hope and beauty into people’s lives.”

Isn’t that beautiful?! I think I’m gonna steal that mission statement!

Hey, I’m moving in! Dahlia cuttings here we come!

Online sale on March 20 (spring!🌷🐣🐰) at 3:20 EST.

03/04/2025

We are thrilled to be offering rannunculus and anemone this spring!

Hundreds of little octopus-looking “corms” have been sprouting and growing for several weeks now in our 50-degree crawl space. We will be putting them outside under frost and row covers as soon as the ground thaws. Did you know they love to be cold?

Who is ready for buckets of these beauties (in every color of the rainbow 🌈 ) in May and June?

(Photos of blossoms are not my photos).

02/16/2025

Business in the front, party in the back! Veca Lucia is plump and luscious, simetimes a little bit unruly, and utterly gorgeous. I don’t know what it is about this particular blossom, but the frogs and the bees seem to absolutely love her. 🐝 🐸💕💫

02/15/2025

We are starting to dream Dahlia dreams over here! Who can guess how many Dahlia stem cuttings (AKA baby Dahlia plants) I have in my basement grow tent?

02/07/2025

I just pulled out a tuber for this one and can hardly wait for her to wake up! Hapet Rose Dream is stunning, show-worthy, majestic and just so feminine. A personal favorite. Hoping to offer this in the 2025/2026 season.

02/04/2025

Who else is in full swing with farm and garden dreaming/planning?! 🙋🙋‍♀️

I’ve taken a little hiatus from the farm these past few weeks to rest and recoup after an incredible 2024 season. But now, I’m rolling up my sleeves and laughing at my absolutely ridiculous seed collection. It’s both impossible and inevitable—I’m diving in!

Once again, I’ll be playing my favorite game: “How many flats of seedlings can one fit in a 10 x 10 grow tent?” Just like I did last year (it was madness!)

For me, this is pure joy. Can’t wait to share with the world!

Also, I’ll be excited to share ranunculus and tulips with you all this spring at the farm stand! Stay tuned!

01/20/2025

What colors are you looking for in your bouquets or your Dahlia patch this year?

2024 was the year of jewel tones! I never had enough berry and dark/maroon tones.

In these buckets are: JS Janice, Crichton Honey, Orange Hype, 20th Ave Gwen, Rip City, Purple
Delight, Rocco, Rosemary Dawn, G H Lammerse, WB’s MC, Rebecca Lynn, Jowey Linda, Wine Eyed Jill, Diva.

01/07/2025

📣 S A L E! 📣

We’ll be opening our DAHLIA TUBER SALE this Tuesday, 1/7/25 at 1:00 PM eastern time.
Link to my website in comments—see my website to browse all 200+ varieties, and for farm information. All sales are for spring 2025 shipping.

Free shipping on any tuber order over $150. Yes, I will refund shipping for multiple orders.

🌈 Special guest appearances by my two local artists (one of them is my Mom!) with their beautiful, handcrafted dahlia and floral earrings.🌈

12/12/2024

What to do when the Dahlia to-do list is done (sorta 😆)? Polish off tulip to-do list. A little snow storm bothers this farmer only a little, and doesn’t bother these bulbs at all.

It’ll be worth it!

After all, who wouldn’t love a G O R G E O U S bouquet of spring flowers right about now? 🙋🏻‍♀️ These need eight or so more weeks of chilling and rooting and then they’ll be ready to shoot up as it warms.

P. S. We will have ranunculus and anemone this spring too 🥳🎉🌷💐!

Dahlias as cut flowers: did you know that dahlias have a shorter vase life than many other focal flowers such as roses, chrysanthemums, or ranunculus? We still use them in bouquets extensively on our farm and expect 3-7 days from the cut blossoms, depending on the variety. They are known for being “event flowers,” meaning they are great for events such as weddings or funerals due to their color range and beauty. If you are looking for a variety that holds especially well in the vase, you might consider any ball variety—known for their longer vase life. What variety is your favorite in a vase? #dahliafarmer #dahliafarming #dahlia #dahliafarm #farmer #dahliagrower #farm #polinatorfriendlyfarm #gulllake #michiganflowerfarm #flowerfarm #underthesunflowerco #michiganflowerfarmer #wintersowing #flowerfarmer #farmstand #flowerstagram #dahliabouquet

Who is ready to grow this beauty? Rip city was an absolute queen of the patch. Look how pretty she is with jewel tones. Also, I’m so enjoying some rest and cozy time with my family—but a piece of me cannot wait for buckets full of blossoms again. #dahliafarmer #dahliafarming #dahlia #dahliafarm #farmer #dahliagrower #farm #dahliasale #polinatorfriendlyfarm #gulllake #michiganflowerfarm #flowerfarm #underthesunflowerco #michiganflowerfarmer #flowerfarmer #farmstand #flowerstagram will be for sale in a week or two.
