Some journeys begin with the kind of courage only love can fuel.

Our precious Johnie Lynn is recovering today from her complex surgery and shows nothing but proof of the strength that can be packed in the tiniest bodies.

For the our kids, it’s been a path filled with questions, anxiety, and fear.

The trauma this last few weeks is coupled with the weight of knowing every step ahead will have many more challenges and is now their reality.

But here’s the thing: while the road may be long, love makes the impossible seem possible. Each milestone, no matter how small, is going to be a victory.

Jordan and Keri’s strength and resilience are inspirational - in a volatile time where they feel so emotionally fractured.

Alongside the emotional toll, the financial strain still feels overwhelming.

We know support comes in many forms and each milestone and gift, no matter how small, is a victory.

And while the road ahead may be long, love, hope, and the generosity of others lighten their load.

We are so grateful for the support from a community that has showed up.

For our little girl, her light shines so bright.

Thank you for coming along side this journey. If you feel led, please continue to follow and share her story.

The journey has just begun!

🧡 In times of hardship, we’re reminded by the power of kindness.

We’ve been so deeply moved by the outpouring of love, support, and generosity shown toward my son Jordan and his little family.

As they navigate this challenging journey, kindness is a reminder that no family faces these battles alone—our community is here, holding them close. 💕

While we are grateful beyond words, their path still brings new hurdles, burdens and a journey of needs.

For those who wish to join in supporting them, we invite you to contribute or simply share their story.

Every gesture, whether a donation, a meal, or a kind word, brings them strength.

Thank you for surrounding them with so much love. 🙏

🍂 I keep working to convince myself that Fall is here. I just don’t want to let that sunshine go yet.

Late sunrise and 40’ temps are a sure sign that I can’t deny.

Traditionally October has been my favorite month of the year and Washington is known for its striking beauty in the fall.

Until the rain hits ☔️ ☹️

🌸 It’s been an incredible fresh cut flower season and the end is closing in. I keep on saying 1 more week!

Judging this weekends pick we’re not done, just slowing down🍁

New fall-inspired bouquets are going to market, full of rich colors and cozy vibes. Pioneer Marketplace Skagit Valley Food Co-op

All about the pivot 🍂💐

The fast pace of summer is winding down, and we’re rolling into the final weeks of our cut flower season.

It’s a bittersweet time—while the garden is a little quieter, our creativity is still in full bloom, always dreaming up what’s next - a blessing and a curse!

To celebrate this transition, I’m excited to offer something everlasting: decorative pumpkins that will carry the beauty of the garden into your homes and office throughout the holiday season. 🎃✨

Each one is a piece of art, bringing warmth and charm that lasts long after the flowers have faded.

Get yours before they’re gone and savor the season just a little longer! 🌾

Comment “yes” to grab yours. I’ll follow up with pick-up and delivery options.

You can also find a fresh stock this weekend.

I get asked quite often, what do you do with all the flowers you grow?

My classic response is - a lot 🤩

So do you sell them? ✅ Yes

Do you make Bouquets? ✅ Yes

Do you do weddings? ✅ Yes

What do you do with the extras?

Well, I share them!

I ran out to do a quick check on the garden…you know cuz it rained today 🤓 🤷‍♀️

🐰🐰It led me down a bunny trail, in the most creative way.

I guess it was a multi-purpose trip, one group of flowers and so many possibilities 😁

- I practiced a Bridal bouquet, to be repurposed for table piece. (The blush and burnt orange combo is going to be 🔥)

- Put together the recipe of the week. For my ladies who signed up to grab a weekly dose of Dahlia love.

- Finished it off as a beautiful gift to freely share with others. Tomorrow it’s going to work with me, so my co-workers and our patients can enjoy them.

This week - I’ll call the bunch Sunrise to Sunset, and she can be ordered on our website.

Ready Friday or Saturday, you choose.

Oh Lily you’re so fine, you’re so fine you blow my mind!

Over two years ago I planted lilies with intentions of honoring our daughter’s chosen wedding flower.

Piece of cake and easy to grow right? 🍰

And… it was a flop. I had to out source them.

No blooms that year, and hardly any again the following year.

But wow - look at her now!

Taller than me, with the richest color and the most fragrant blooms.

Another lesson from the garden:

Good growth takes time, effort, and the ability to adapt to changing circumstances.

Lilies symbolize purity, devotion, and rebirth, making them a meaningful flower for any occasion.

The reward, the beauty that blooms is all the sweeter because of the patience invested.

This weekend was all about celebrating a Fall bride-to-be and a special birthday!

The timing couldn’t have been more perfect - the rich jewel tones and warm colors were simply stunning. ✨

Hard to think fall with a nice summer stride in full bloom.

🌺Bring a little touch of Lily home, they will be available for the last of the season at the Flower Stand this weekend.

This weekends recipe:

Sunnies, Rudbeckia, blended with snaps yarrow and a whole lot of charm!

From garden to eternity.

Love-in-a-mist showing off her magical process.

I love how nature shares her ways.

Flowers can be fleeting and fade in just a few days.

How about preserving her beauty?

She can go from vase to forever in just a few days.

Hang her upside down and wait, every bloom has a story to be told.

Guess who’s back? Guess who’s back?

Nope, not the real slim shady.

The hot sun and a rapidly blooming garden.

It took a while for the summer shades to start showing their presence, but they’re back!

This week you’ll find Godetia stealing the show along with a few supporting filler acts.

They went out to market this morning and you can find them at and Pioneer Marketplace

Flower Stand will be open again on 7/20.
Taking a little summer Ocean Escape.

Thank you for supporting our little blooming business- it fills my bucket in more ways than one.

After posting my dahlia dividing win, I got so many questions about, “What’s in the crate”? This is Bride To Be. She is a perfect 4” over achiever and grown to compliment my many things - market bouquets, special arrangements, and a star piece in wedding bouquets. I grow almost a whole row of her, just for her gracing presence. Needless to say… I have an over flow of tubers and they will be available in the Spring. Leave me a “yes” if you want to grab and grow her. I will add you to my waitlist. P.S. Now booking our Ala Cart wedding services for 2024. Link in bio to our website. Bridal Bootcamp dates go live soon (learn the tricks to DIY your wedding). #dahlia #weddingflowers #flowerfarmer #growyourown #skagit #skagitvalley

Hi friends - Thank for the pop-in and pause. If you are new to me, or our page, welcome! I’m Chery owner and grower at Maggie’s Garden & Stems. A wife, mother, and during the week – a nurse. My personality reflects a lot of contentment while helping, serving, and digging into making deeper connections with my loves and my community. I’m going into my 3rd season as a grower, and have found my garden is my space to escape from the chaos that surrounds us, explore my creativity, and share it all with my community. Our lives have forever been marked by the impact of a pandemic, but more now than ever we have been pushed to recognize mindful living and with that comes self-care. For many years self-care was a selfish concept, a concept I had to learn and embrace through education and professional development. What does all this have to do with YOU? What does it have to do with FLOWERS? The answer is SIMPLE. We need to normalize self-care. There are many studies supporting flowers as an excellent way to lower stress related depression, anxiety, and improve your overall well-being. Sound’s great to me, and I’m in – GIVE ME ALLL THE FLOWERS! Coming from the garden connecting is key, we grow with you in mind. In 2023 we will focus on all the pretties blooming, practice authenticity, and building up community. How about you? How do you find balance and practice self-care? Come along and share your thoughts.

Sometimes looking back, helps you leap forward to the brighter things that are ahead! Seed starting season is what’s happening - dreams of sweet peas dancing in my head 💕

Remember those Lupine about to leap from last weeks post? We left for a few days of r&r, and came home to a field in full bloom! Beauty all around 💐. . . . I have stems available for grab and go, DM me to place an order.
