Yesterday evening I dropped off a truckload of food that I purchased for NC relief with a fellow farming friend that is going to get it along with tons of other supplies on the road today. I got a few things from this experience: #1 Humbled and proud of my Ellie. She jumped right in to help unload and pack the food without being asked or told. Pure, genuine heart that one is. #2 Thankful for the gratitude, hard work, and dedication of others trying to accomplish the same mission we are. #3 The thoughtfulness and kindness of Jay as he told Ellie that she was an inspiration. She didn’t understand it at first, but I did. He celebrated her, validated her, and supported her in those words. Maybe he didn’t realize it in the moment, but with such simple words he is helping us to build up children that will take these incredible character traits into the future so compassion, charity, and genuine love for all others will continue on past us. Again, I am so thankful and blessed to be able to do these things for others and do them alongside great people! We don’t care where you donate or how it gets to those in need, we just know it needs to be done and we are working hard to make sure it does!

We are on a mission here at Fields for Ellie to give back to those in need in our communities! Being that the co-owner of our company is, in fact, 8 years old, this year’s fundraiser is going towards local children in elementary schools who dont have snacks of their own and have to watch the other children eat with hungry bellies. A minimum of 20% of everything we sell from our online store goes directly to purchasing and delivering snacks to local elementary schools which will give them to students in need for FREE!

When the co-owner of your company is 8, and you have to make videos like this…. “If #Elsa was a #cowgirl and called her #baby #cows up for #dinner. #fieldsforellie #flower #and #farm #company #farmkids #farmlife #cattle #call #frozen #kids #viral #mississippi #havefun
Hahaha! Feeling funny. We all need a laugh. It’s true! Also, don’t worry, you already know i have a spare pair of Hollands. Theyre waiting for me on the 4-wheeler in one of my hoophouses. But dang, I gotta be careful now. #fieldsforellie #flower #and #farm #company #joke #of #the #day #laugh #live #recover #cow #girl #problems
Flowers aren’t the only thing we are growing around here… #fieldsforellie #flower #and #farm #company #cowgirl #farmkid #baby#calves #cow #cattle #girl #babyanimals
Oh my gosh. The last 18 hours have been a little stressful on the heart. We got this calf yesterday from a momma who couldn’t provide milk anymore. This poor little buddy doesn’t know me and he sure doesn’t know what a bottle is. It can takes days to inspire a calf to suck on bottle especially one who is already use to his momma. Some never do at all. Calves like this can be so rewarding, but it can just as easily be so sad. Well, I’m happy to report that I convinced this little fella to take a bottle by lunchtime! 😅 About 14 hours after arriving on the farm. I am so excited and feel so much better about the little guy. He doesn’t have a name yet so I’m open to suggestions! I promise, it was not as easy as it looks. #fieldsforellie #flower #and #farm #company #bottle #baby #calf #love #patience #hope #off #to #a #good #start #farmlife #cow
It has been an incedibly busy 9 days! In those 9 days we were able to completely assemble two new hoophouses for our farm. I waited until the end on this one to show you guys because I was so busy trying to complete it and honestly, just too tired to keep up with social on top of it. So, here it is! Build #2 from start to finish. #fieldsforellie #flower #and #farm #company #greenhouse #diy #build #flowers #hard #hot #work #beautiful #results

I was so excited to see this tiger swallowtail today on the echinacea. It was huge! And oh so very beautiful. A much needed interaction in the mist of so much busy, tough, incredibly hot, and tiring work. #fieldsforellie #flower #and #farm #company #swallowtail #butterflies

Day 5 intro and day 4 recap of hoophouse 1 build.
Moving right along on this hoophouse build. For those of you following along, thank you! I know it’s not the pretty flowers that you are here for, but I think it’s kinda fun and interesting to show yall behind the scenes and the work that’s really going into this operation.
