​Anemones and ranunculus are some of the first flowers that bloom on our farm each year during late winter/early spring. They are always such a lovely reminder that the grey days of winter are coming to an end and spring is on its way. While they aren't the easiest (or cheapest) cut flowers to grow, I couldn't imagine a season without them. If you've never tried growing them, give them a try!

As we begin a new year, I can't help but look forward to the warm spring days ahead. I feel a renewed excitement for the farm and a strong desire to dig my hands into the rich, earthy soil once again.

From organizing tools and checking inventory to designing garden layouts, my list is quite a long one. Fortunately, it’s a list I enjoy. One of the first winter chores I must tackle is seed starting, the most crucial step in beginning this year's garden.

​Oh, how I love zinnias! With their bright, bold colors and their long vase life, they are a wonderful cut flower to have in the garden. Zinnias are one of the first plants I ever grew from seed and I cannot imagine not seeing them bloom in my fields every year. They are also very easy to grow, which makes them a great choice for first-time growers. If you'd like to add some color to your garden, you should give them a try!

Pollinators In The Garden

​One of the things I was really excited about when we started our flower farm was knowing that my newly planted blooms were going to attract so many pollinators. My plants not only added color and beauty to my garden, but also attracted bees, butterflies, birds, moths, and even wasps and hornets. All these hardworking living creatures contribute to seed production and support the biodiversity of our ecosystem. Over the years, the number of these wonderful pollinators has declined. I was happy to plant native plants that I knew they would enjoy.
