And the flowers are still out there. 🫠🫠🫠

At the end of last week, we invited Bradley’s dad (Granddaddy) to stay with us. Granddaddy has a brain injury called CTE from too many hits to the head, from playing college football at UGA, in the late 1960s. He has a hard time with his short-term memory. His body, however is in great condition for a late 70 year old, as witnessed in this video!
Granddaddy was a phenomenal help in the garden this weekend, running a wheel-hoe and pulling weeds. There is something healing and magical about having 3 generations of a family helping in the garden. 🌱🌱🌱
We pray that you are able to get out in your garden this week. Have a blessed one!

Today was the very first time that we felt like the girls REALLY helped in the garden. We are excited to have more hands in the planting process. We have around 500 more plant plugs to get in the ground this weekend. Many hands make light work!
🌸 Happy Labor Day from Rivendell Farms! 🌸
Today, we celebrate the beauty that blooms from hard work and dedication. To our incredible team and everyone who helps our flowers flourish, thank you for your passion and perseverance. Enjoy this well-deserved day of rest—your efforts bring beauty to the world every day!

A Mid-Summer Clean-Up
The cats really complete this video! 🐾🐾🐾
This weekend we planted our zinnias starts. We started these little babies about a week and a half ago. We have been diligently trying to tidy up the garden, but y’all, it’s still so so hot out. Gardening in a South Carolina summer is less than fun. 🫠🫠🫠
We are sorry that you haven’t seen our lovely flowers at the coffee shop, or at the Barnwell Farmers Market, but we are in a transition period.
With that being said, we absolutely CAN make something special for you, and we are still taking orders. Please DM us if you need flowers. 💕🙏
Today was an absolute sweat-fest in the garden. I am thankful I wore all these clothes because the sun ☀️ was not kind. I cut back the blooms on our sweet basil today so that we can make PESTO next weekend!
I also weeded a bunch and harvested some veggies and sunflowers 🌻. I also ripped out a whole row of spent plants and weeds from our spring garden quadrant, in order to make room for our next round of zinnias!
It’s currently raining and we are ever so thankful for HIS mercy. 💕🌧️
We know these low-humidity nights are fleeting as the South Carolina summer descends, so we will enjoy them while we can. Last night we planted more of our ProCut sunflower 🌻 plugs that we grew from seed! It was a dirty and glorious night on the farmette. 🥰
What a lovely weekend it was. Now onto another crazy week in the month of May!
Rain is a good thing! Praise HIM.
Today was a good day. We worked smarter while planting our zinnia starts. We watered and watered some more. This made our Humble Acres Organics compost perfect to plant in. We planted around 225 plants today.
We also unloaded the greenhouse and set our patio up. The patio is now a plant paradise. It would be like heaven on these cool spring night, save for the mosquitoes 🦟🩸.
Every time we pick up I Can’t Believe It’s Chicken Manure Compost from Humble Acres Organics the girls go crazy! They love to roll around in this stuff, and why not let them. They really love dirt! #compost #garden #farmkids #rivendellfarmssc #humbleacresorganics #dirt #farmette
