Meet Snow the Angel; named by Sophia and Zane.

It feels so good to be creating again!! Be on the look out for more gourd lamps because I've go a lot of ideas brewing. I've also received a good interest in doing a birdhouse gourd workshop so I will be planning that and sharing once I have the details ready ☺️

Several years ago, I cultivated a collection of gourds that have been stored in the garage, awaiting transformation into unique art pieces. What has hindered my progress? Initially, when the gourds were ready, I was expecting and the cleaning process, which requires removing significant mold, was not feasible. Fast forward two years, and I have finally allocated time to focus on creative pursuits. I will share some of my completed projects in the comments below.

Would you be interested in participating in a workshop where you could design and create your own birdhouse?

As I conclude the 2025 gardening season, I am filled with immense gratitude. Our efforts have yielded a bountiful harvest, stocking our freezer and shelves, while also providing invaluable insights to enhance our farming techniques for a successful farmstand next year. Although unforeseen challenges and self-doubt may have arisen, I have already begun strategizing to bring greater value to our community in the future.

It all started with a vision. 🌱

We dreamed of a small farmstand—something simple, honest, and rooted in community. A place where folks could stop by for fresh produce, fragrant herbs, maybe a handmade soap or two. That vision planted itself deep, and little by little, we began to build.

The first big step? The greenhouse. Piece by piece, we raised it—through early mornings, late nights, and more than a few learning curves. It became the heart of our growing operation, where tiny seeds transformed into strong, healthy starts. It’s where the dream started to take real shape.

Now, standing inside that warm, green space, surrounded by life and color, it’s easy to remember why we started. The farmstand is more than a roadside stop—it’s a symbol of persistence, hope, and the beauty of growing something from the ground up.

**PLANT SALE MAY 10TH, 10-2**

Thank you for being part of the journey. 🌿
