🥔 Tuber packing!

Lots of different ways to successfully store tubers over winter.

We pack mesh bags in kraft paper lined crates of lightly moistened pine shavings and put in the unplugged walk in cooler: door open if warm, door open if cool.

The result: clean, plump tubers ready to plant in spring!

Hint of frost a couple weeks ago, tbd how much longer we’re in the dahlias.

This small sea of 7000 plants has given us a lot this year and looks ready to keep going, especially given our hard cutting on it for over two months!

Now just have the small task of getting them dug before a hard freeze 😀

🍁October: beautiful days, finishable lists, saturated palettes!

This past week, we got a bunch of cover crop in, loads of flowers out to discerning humans, more dried flowers packed (& on the cusp of arriving : coming next week!). Even popped a few final perennials in the ground and w**ded several beds.

In progress: barn and prop areas cleaned up, tulip bulbs on deck, dahlia final rogue n label, sweet pea seed processing……….

💐Boks !

Starring zinnias, snaps, statice, feathertop grass and stunning douglas asters - a wildflower native to this place we saved seed from to have an abundance this year!

Frost is hovering around these days, but we’re still in flowers for the moment 💫

Phew! Farm tour ✅!

Thank you so much to everyone who made it out here and honored us with their presence and questions, my coworkers who help keep this ship running and looking good, without whom it never would have happened.

Real cool to get nitty gritty and honest on everything from rodents to profitability with y’all.

Here are pics of some spots where we’re currently giving good flower 💓

🎯 When we sold at the Farmer’s Market, we got asked all the time if we “just sold flowers.”

My translation of this is: do you grow vegetables?

My long answer is pinned, but in short: yup!

Do we do our best farming for the veggies? Abso-fricking-lutely not.

Do the plants still bless us with food, sometimes a crazy abundance 2 months after they should have been harvested? Often yes!

Beets for crew meal coming right up.

Or for a tablescape because these girls are gorgeous🔥

🌟 The stars of September:

Dahlias get more ground than any other crop we grow currently. We rotate them every year to lower disease and pest issues.

This year that meant ground that was pasture followed by two seasons of cover crop. & getting water to it!

They seem to be thriving here at the forest’s edge: dark foliage; long, strong stems; buckets of bunches daily.

Excited/nervous (ARE THEY THE SAME??) for the farm tour in two weeks!

As a working and still maturing farm, we don’t typically host tours, but thanks to the support of the ASCFG, we’re going to be looking at how we grow, dahlandia, the transplant process and tools we use, our water/irrigation systems; wash/pack situay, greenhouse/tunnel cultivation and more.

See you here? 🌸🌈💞

August feels!

Moving through changes, flowing through the unexpected.

This year I took myself to PT for some chronic wrist pain and the deep exhaling that I learned to do to engage those core muscles rather than my overactive forearms also works to activate the parasympathetic nervous system: the calm and relaxed feeling instead of the stressed and surviving sympathetic system feels.

Following that breath into these last weeks of hustle feels a lot better than the alternative.

Shout out to our fellow growers. August can be such a rough and tumble month. We see you 💚

Just got out of a @seattlewholesalegrowersmarket member meeting with a hugely full heart 💗💗💗 Being part of a producer coop has been fundamental to the farm supporting itself and its workers well. This video features Jay on one of many evening deliveries to the SWGMC. Immense gratitude for the market members, especially its founders, amazing employees, managers past and present, and florists and other buyers who choose local. You can check out some of the coop’s farms, crops, and florists on the @seattlewholesalegrowersmarket insta & youtube channel in some inspiring videos produced by @dkprinzing of @slowflowerssociety and videographed by @alaynaerhart. . . . . . #flowerfarm #flowerfarmer #seattlewholesalegrowersmarket #localflowers #localflowermakelifebetter #seasonalflowers #slowflowers #seattleflowers
