HPF/GOE year in review, y'all! 
We put on our boots

and tilled in all our delicious over-wintered cover crops
to feed our most important livestock; soil microbes
starting where we all start, in the soil
little sprouts planted little sprouts
 
big sprouts planted little sprouts

(we found the best ever very first on the payroll employee ever, Emily)
and took time for some kisses in between planting and sprouting and soil-building



and wheel-barrow races 
we watered those little sprouts
Susan and Molly counted 'em (whew!)
and loaded 'em up
and took a little time to pose for an early crew photo

oh these beautiful people, inside and out

and we hosted some fun, fine events

and surprise, found our own dreamy piece of ground across the river in Wisco 
  but went back to work in Minnesnowta because 
well, we had a season of flowers and food to grow,

and then there was that time that the 50 mph gusts of wind blew our sunnies over, and our beautiful farm friends at GOE helped us stake them after their long hard days and we saved 'em

we hosted a field day with the Land Stewardship Project on the hottest day of the whole summer in July 



grow some flowers, we did

our dear friend and helper Amanda came along for another ride of a season 
 we survived, here's proof 
(thanks for these photos Tootie & Dotes)

we said "see ya later, dear farm family"
(thanks for this photo, MOSA)
and packed up our stuff, hit the road

and landed here. 

we wish you and yours the very best of 2016! we'll be in touch very soon about next seasons' flowers! 

Mwah!
J,M+E
