Farm update!!!
Wow, yesterday was such a whirlwind! Our team planted 100 peonies, made a couple wreaths, and whipped up over 100 wreath bundles for the wreath party that happened today! We were covered in tree sap and dirt, but we managed to get everything done!

I have finally finished reviewing all of our 2025 fresh cut flower harvest, bouquet, and sale records! We are going beat our personal record for the 4th year in a row with how many seed we will plant in 2026. We have calculated, and the numbers have spoken, we will be planting about TWENTY FIVE THOUSAND cut flower seeds next year!!! That many seeds should get us 65,000-75,000 cut flowers in 2026! Who else is excited!

Thank you all so very much for your support!

This holiday season, The Bloomin’ Idiot is proud to support Operation Christmas Child, a ministry of Samaritan’s Purse that delivers shoebox gifts—filled with toys, school supplies, and hygiene items—to children in need all around the world. Each box is a tangible expression of God’s love, opening the door for kids and families to hear the Good News of Jesus Christ.
We love being part of something that reaches far beyond our flower fields and into the hearts of children everywhere. We encourage all our wonderful customers and friends to pack a shoebox and be part of this life-changing mission!

You can learn how to pack a shoebox or build one online at:
https://www.samaritanspurse.org/what-we-do/operation-christmas-child/

Let’s share joy, hope, and the love -- one shoebox at a time!

Thank you!
