Our dahlia tubers are out of cold storage and unpacked. They look fantastic! The website has been updated with about 60% of our stock. If the dahlia is on our site but sold out, don't forget to sign up for a restock notification! More tubers will be added once they eye up.

He looks beautiful now...
I'm sure they are made cute so that we forget about the rat parts they barfed up at 4 am.

In order to reduce our carbon footprint and reliance on items made in the US and China, we trialed making wreath frames out of local vine trimmings this year rather than using imported metal frames. The trial worked well, so now we are on the hunt for grape and wisteria trimmings. If you have any, please let us know and we will come and pick them up!

Are we actually going straight from fall to spring? It certainly felt like it today when I picked these flowers. January 6th.

Happy Solstice!!

Right now, we are simultaneously putting the farm to bed and sowing the first seeds for Mother's Day flowers. The cold and dark make the days seem longer, and we are definitely a bit weary.

It was so nice to receive this lovely note! I'd like to share this note with all farmers, especially those still outside on these damp December days:

You all matter
Your efforts matter
Your care matters
Your operation of this farm matters.
So thank you truly for all you are doing.

Another half a day, and we should be done with the dahlia digging and washing! Then, they will dry in the greenhouse for a few days before we start dividing them. It is a big job!
