Hey Friends!

We've been delivering plants like crazy these last two weeks. Has it only been two weeks?! We are so pleased by the response to the plants! They've been flying on the racks, and we're all so happy to get our hands in the dirt.

We've also been planting in the field every other moment we have. And harvesting the spring bulbs, and the beginnings of the other spring flowers. We hope to have consistent flower deliveries in 2-3 weeks.

Oh, and check out the super fun farm event we're planning! Please put it on your calendar - we'd love to share our farm with you. We'll have wood-fired pizza, and music and of course, flowers, flowers and flowers. And, it's Farmer Mike's 40th birthday that month, so we'll have a little celebration too!

 

Our new employee Sam is awesome. We all think so. 

 

Every mama needs a pressure washer for Mother's Day. Right?!




Thursday morning our neighbor's horses broke out of their fence and came to munch on our delicious hay ground. He came to get them and offered this lucky boy a ride. He hopped right up like a pro, definitely not like it was his first time ever on a horse - which it was. All before breakfast!


 

Flowers in 3 weeks. Eeeeek! Be well!

Hello friends!

The greenhouses are filling up and looking good. We're excited to deliver a few bedding plant flats to stores later this week, then a whole bunch more will go to happy gardens all over the metro over Mother's Day weekend. Yay!

Everything has fared really well considering the April snow and wind. We're grateful for that.

Our soil has dried out nicely, and we've spent the week planting furiously in the field. We will have tulips, ranunculus and anemone soon, but not in time for Mother's Day. Sorry - the long winter didn't cooperate. I'll be in touch as soon as we know better the order-ready dates.

Our new-to-us tractor has made Farmer Mike's life a lot more pleasant. We bought a mini disc plow, and while it's a little light for our clay-based soil, it gets the field prep job done so much faster than the walk-behind BCS. Wowza, what a game-changer.

We're loving this 6th year of farm business - thanks for your support! We can hardly wait to bring you the fruit of our labors so very soon.

Best,
J,M+E
