Lots of chefs kiss, tell me more, witch circles on land and water, foraged material, and fog. When women say they’re rambling listen up, that’s when enlightenment happens. Endless gratitude for all the beings that showed up and taught me something and kept me very well fed 💗 (slide 5 for my ultimate geek face, love direct feedback)

Opening day at Beech Hill Farm 🎉 Pickup fresh veggies and checkout my dried wreaths! First time my work has been sold in a store, a big step for this small business. Thanks for supporting local growers and artists🌿🫶🏼

Peak lilac season✨ A fondness for the flower and the island inherited from my Grandmother. Thinking of her while collecting an arm full💗

harvesting the last of the daffodils is so bittersweet. absence makes the heart grow fonder. until next spring, my sweetly scented beauties💘

the calming effect of a clean color palette🦢 I have a whole new appreciation for carnations, can’t believe how severely I judged them. a true workhorse in a rainbow of colors🌈🦄

when nature does the gardening for you👌🏻 Reminding myself to be aware of over weeding the gardens. We wouldn’t want to deprive ourselves of self-sowing beauties like pansies and violas 🌱

a posy a day keeps the blues away🦋

Dedicating a few rows of spring bulbs has been one of the greatest gifts to myself. As a gardener for over 10 years I’ve made it my mission to give clients all my hard work and attention. Last year, early mornings and late evenings were devoted to my petite garden patch. In the end I felt more creative, generous, and overflowed with pride. Pro gardeners: give yourself a plot to play without goals of success or wealth and you will be rewarded. Dare I say, with inner peace? Always fluctuating🦋

Taking a few days off from work for a bit of hiking and camping! Not a very physically relaxing trip but it’s so valuable to take a step back from the hustle. Back to the gardens on Thursday🌻🌸🌾

The gardens are overflowing with goodness and growing straight to the skies💫 this season has gone by in a blink. Taking in a big breath of summer and exhaling into fall

summer florals✨ last week I had the opportunity to contribute floral wearables to a Camp Beech Cliff event ‘Ladies Who Loonch’ where stunning models walked the runaway showing off local fashions of the island. I’m already so excited for the show next year!

Damon’s date night linen shirt needed a little extra something✨ floral wearables are for everyone on any occasion. Last night we celebrated summer, our growing business, and how crazy we are for each other ❤️‍🔥

a carpet of soft white🕊️ Perennials are really starting to takeoff, the backbone of the gardens. Adding in favorite annuals throughout the designs but I would be nowhere without the yearly returning beauties. A lot of shrubs were affected by our thawing and freezing temps but the perennials seem unfazed🤞🏼

playing in the rain on an empty sand beach. It’s not often you get to enjoy such a popular place to all to yourself. So happy to create art on my favorite island 🐚

usually I would feel so glum from lack of sunshine but everything is vibrant and exploding with life it’s hard not to dance in the rain🌧️

Bold and ethereal. Delicate creations commanding attention. The cherry on top type of accessory. Floral wearables are an easy choice for a statement piece or to blend in and complement your surroundings. Whatever your intentions, convey with florals🕊️

My vase and pot collection is minuscule in comparison to Martha Stewart (I’m now on the hunt for brass pots to polish) but I do have my trusty bean pot. A vessel of perfection to hold these hefty lilacs. Stay tuned for the bean pot series🫘and let me know your favorite places for antiquing and thrifting! In need of interesting vessels🏺

Lilac season is almost over💔 driving around bar harbor yesterday I could see them starting to go by. The backside is always a bit a behind blooming and if you’re lucky enough to have lilacs in a bit of shade they bloom even later. Lilac syrup is on the list for after work drinks🍋

the movement from the quaking grass🥹

as far as working in the rain goes, today was pretty wonderful. We needed a good watering and I think we’re all feeling fresh and new again. After a day of planting and weeding in the gardens, peeling off wet layers and being rewarded with a hot shower and cozy pj’s is among a few of my favorite things🌧️

greenhouse tulips are exploding💥 the field planted bulbs are getting ready to put on a show and I’m eager to see if they overlap🤞🏼 putting in my order for fall planting and I’m so overwhelmed- I want to grow them all! 🌷💐

Daffodils are popping up everywhere! I have weathered enough springs here on the island to know where to flower peep. See streaks of yellow in front yards of Town Hill, across the stop sign turning off the Knox Road onto Route 3, church near the school in Northeast Harbor, and by the sign of the Charlotte Rhoades Butterfly Garden. These daffs in front of Salsbury Hardware are quenching my flower thirst💦
