No filter. Just fog. Simply beautiful.

When I take a break, I try to notice the world around me. There is usually something worth appreciating.

Took advantage of the warmer weather this pay weekend to try something new! Planting in crates is a first for us though many of our flower friends have had success with it. We will see!

Our trial with chrysanthemum went so well, ya’ll! We have such beautiful prolific mums that we will be sharing next year. Cream, whites, burgundy, pink. We’ll see how the bronze beauties come out and the purple spiders… those will be fun and we’re late additions to the trial. I’ll call next year a trial for them.

Grateful for today’s abundance. In love, in life, in community.

More beautiful plants from Costa Rica! Thankfully my friend and I were able to go on a perfect personalized tour of the area. We told our guide what we wanted and he built the best experience full of foliage, coffee, and relaxation. I can’t recommend enough!

It’s here! The 2nd Iowa Farmers of Color conference. I am so proud of this work to bring this event together in strong collaboration with and the core group of us over the past year.
Also, really are gracious hosts - they even provided some entertainment for my little kids who quickly became unenthusiastic about the funding panels lol

This might not look like much but this is one inspiration for our prairie. The Marshall County Timmons Grove Park has this very small segment of prairie with a walking path threaded through it. It reminds me it doesn’t take much to make a difference and make an impact to visitors.

Today is Día de los Muertos - a celebration I miss from growing up in Texas. Celebrated from November 1-2, it’s a time to remember and connect with the departed. While I looove dressing up for Halloween, this celebration hits differently.

Have a happy Day of the Dead. To you and your familia.

Curious what we do on the first weekend without farmers market? Well, we cry because we won’t see you all, and then we work our grief off by doing farm chores! Like pulling up dahlias!
Time to go into storage.

Grab the last of the season’s flowers before the Ames Farmer’s Market closes for winter. It’s a wonder but it’s the last market of the season. We made it without frost and have some beautiful blooms yet for you all.

We couldn’t have chosen a better day to go on a train ride. The museum was also fun and nicely done!

Found a little oaisis in Toronto. You can’t get to it but you can see it!

She’s getting so big and helping. 😱

Invest in your well being this year and share good vibes with your loved ones with a summer flower CSA. Feel good and support the environment with fresh locally sourced flowers direct from the farm. Fresh, local, and grown with love. #minervasmeadow #ames #statecenter #centraliowa #freshflowers #localbusiness

This time of year is all about aspiration and setting seeds for the future. Are you ready for flower season? Are you missing all this color?

If you read our latest newsletter, you’ll know why these photos are so significant. I’m going to be tearing up for a few weeks 🥺🙏 Missed yours? You can sign up through our website — minervasmeadow.com. I’ll be resending to new subscribers this week!

We talked about having a space like this and my dreamer-mom and bringer-of-reality-dad put their heads together and made it come true! It’s now one of our favorite places on the farm. It takes in ol’Sally’s good side and takes advantage of the wind-break she creates to grow the many culinary and medicinal herbs. Many of which we also use in our bouquets 💐

Jazz hands for 2024! Welcome and hello - I’m Hannah, owner of our little flower farm in central Iowa that we’ve called Minerva’s Meadow! I’ve been farming since March 2020, right when the world began to change. Flowers were grounding for my family during that time and proved to be just what our neighbors and flower-friends needed. Since gardening is a family passion, we took our love and began sharing it with you all. And since we continue to dream, we have so many ideas cooking for this next year to bring more of the farm to you all in 2024! Want to follow the development? We’ll be reporting on our progress through the year through our newsletter! Link in the bio or on our website. Located in the rose capital of Iowa, State Center, where I have yet to plant any roses (we’ll get there) — we grow all things that bring the wild world into harmony in our flower arrangements and market offerings. If you have ideas on what you’d like to see from the farm - let me know! [email protected] I’d love to hear what you think! It may just become a special issue in our newsletter or become much more - like our little flower sale last year during a farm tour. Who else is looking forward to 2024?
