We enjoyed the company of swallowtails, bees, and other pollinators while harvesting zinnias yesterday. There’s such a difference in locally grown, chemical-free flowers. Come get your fresh picked flowers @fairfieldfarmersmarket today (Sunday) 10-2. It’s a beautiful a beautiful day!

June was pollinator month, but every day is a good one for bees and butterflies on a small family farm that never uses chemicals and grows many native plants.

There’s something so peaceful about the calm after a storm.

You know you’re a farmer when you spend your weekends weeding 🤷♀️

A friendly, pollen-laden bee came to visit me while harvesting yesterday. When you buy local, chemical free flowers (or other produce), you’re not only supporting family farmers, you’re also supporting the planet and all of its inhabitants.
Most grocery store flowers are coated with pesticides and shipped thousands of miles in refrigerated containers, producing a massive carbon footprint. Farm workers are often mistreated and exposed to dangerous conditions and poverty wages while growing “cheap” flowers for big corporations.
Buy local flowers because they are the freshest, most beautiful blooms around, and at the same time feel good because you are making a difference.

Getting outside and just observing closely is one of the best ways to learn. We love spending time in our native wildflower gardens almost as much as the hardworking pollinators 😀
