: Today was a great day! Harvesting new fall veggies ( Hakurei turnips - yayy !! ) and meeting new friends today who helped mow the back of the garden in no time. I’ve been praying for Angels all week long 🥹.
Overall this week was magical, I did projects I didn’t think I could do. My tiller worked just fine after months of breakdowns . lol 😀
Life as a mom to an Autistic kiddo as been tough this week. Mateo is turning 4 in a couple of days and he’s also been super sensitive to noises. Praying God will show me ways to care for him especially during the days I can’t understand his needs. I just give him lot sweaty hugs and cuddles after work . Love you little peanut! 💛🌻

See you tomorrow!

MEET YOLANDE!! 😊Yolande is from Burkina Faso and currently learning about the farming world with Daphodill Farm through an apprenticeship program provided by Plant It Forward.
When I asked her today why does she want to learn how to farm. She said “ vegetables are like babies. You care for them until they’re ready. Food is medicine. She loves to know where her food comes from and what she feeding people”.
I’m very excited and honored to be part of her beginning farming journey !💛🌻

ALSO: Mustard greens are in season Y’all !!! 😋This season I’m growing two varieties of mustards: Wassabina and Green Wave.
Wassabina have a mild spicy flavor while green wave are pretty spicy with a mustard like flavor. We like to enjoy these delicious greens sautéed with ginger, and lots of garlic. They can be enjoyed alone, with rice and a protein of your choice. We like to pair these greens with a beautiful steak from our one meat farmers-friends.
🌻🌻See you at market today!! 9-noon 🌻🌻

Louis helped pick a ton of Roselle today !
They will be available at market this weekend and perhaps the next week. So grab them while you can! There are various recipes to try: teas, side dish, cranberry sauce substitute, etc. We also harvested the first fall radishes. It was a red and green kind of day 😊Hope to see you tomorrow! 💛🌻

Can’t wait for arugula, salad mix, mustards to make their fall debut soon. I hope you are just as excited as I am. 😃

I told hubby this morning I would only go water the farm and go back home to rest. These allergies are back again. Here I am harvesting sweet potatoes and Okra 🤣 Oh well 🤷‍♀️🤣. 💛🌻

Anyways woohaou!! Look at this beautiful harvest!!!. YES Organic sweet potatoes can be HUGE — and foot long too. This is not even a full row worth of harvest yet. Had to stop for the day. Also sweet potatoes are best harvested with friends lol. This batch will be curing in the red barn while I plan my next harvest.

Happy Labor Day! 💛🌻

This summer felt quite challenging compared to last year’s when I had just started this new farming journey. Lot more responsibilities to take on and wanting to do more 😀
This past weekend, I started my first fall seeding in the greenhouse : kale, mustards, broccoli , chards and cauliflower.
In the next few weeks, I’m focusing on bed prepping, composting and direct seeding for turnips, arugula, mustard mixes and more. I’m still going to do late summer plantings too. Second fall season, let’s go!!!

I’m also working on a some new projects too- Updates coming soon!

continue: This week was dedicated to giving back to a community that helped me grow up, encouraged me to finish high school as a 1st generation refugee, and a four year degree university which led me to pursuing my passion and love for growing food.

Daphodill Farm was invited by to attend the summer Carnival where refugee children of various school grades and international backgrounds were encouraged to interact with different companies to learn about their professions in a fun way.

A little background: I was a PAIR student, just about 10 years ago. I attended the after school sessions every school week, where we learned about America, her culture, job opportunities, really anything we could learn. It was a place where my friends from Congo, Gabon, Eritrea, Nepal, Afghanistan, and other countries would meet to chit chat, learn, get support from the PAIR volunteers and practice our English!

A few months ago, I expressed to my close friends and family how I wanted to be get involved in the community; especially in the refugee community. I still don’t know the complete plan but I enjoyed this event as a first step (:

I loved seeing the kids get excited about taking home nursery pots that they filled with soil and a few seeds of veggies that they are familiar eating at home. Truly my favorite part of the event!

I also got to meet other individuals who love this refugee community or growing food including Nirjhor Rahman from Plant It Forward.

This week felt like a full circle of life - It was a beautiful way to ease into the week after week full of rain. Also, finding someone who loves basil and pesto as much as I do was a gem! 🌿💛
If you want to learn about PAIR, please reach to the organization, if you have time in your precious schedule to volunteer please reach out, if you want to donatein the form of items or funds, please reach out to PAIR. I think I’m a pretty solid example of how a PAIR is supporting resettled refugee children
If you read this far… THANK YOU for reading my story! Annnnnd WATERMELONS ARE HERE!!! So see you at the farmers market this weekend. 💛🌻

Happy Monday! The greenhouse is full of plants that are going to be transplanted this week.
That also means that seeding new crops is needed to keep up the farm filled with food for harvest at all time. This summer has been quite challenging as small farmer , working solo while experiencing heavy storms, hurricanes, and strong winds. I also experienced abundant harvest just as much as low crop yield.
There needs to be seedlings starts in the GH at time to replace any crops lost or damaged to weather or insects. At least to keep the emotional stress away. Don’t talk to me about the weeds, I haven’t yet lost the battle but goodness they’re tough haha!
🌻Thank you for supporting me and my small farm business. 🍈 🍉 🥒🌱.
