so much happening around here in the fall. fall is the busiest time of the year for us but this new addition to the farm will be a game changer come next fall. the barn will hold a walk in cooler, a loft, the workshop area for fall and winter workshops and a parking area (that I won’t direct you through like traffic control 🤣). I’m most excited for all of our fall and winter workshops though to carry us through the year and naturally I’m already shopping for the perfect Christmas tree for the barn 🫪🫣 This has been in the works since last fall and I can’t believe that it’s actually happening right before our eyes!!!

I’ve been digging & storing clumps for a week with my grandpa. One row per day gets dug & washed while the tubers from the day before get divided and will dry before going into storage. Remind me to get much longer tables next season!

I’ve had a ton of questions about tubers and sales which I appreciate so much but to ensure they are viable, I won’t have a sale until late winter. I’d feel awful to sell you something only to cancel it!

the barn is getting concrete this coming week & were expanding the field! taking the year of from tulips and other spring flowers (don’t worry, we’ll still have your fav ranunculus) gives us some extra time to focus on summer!

I hope you’re having a great fall!! Send me & grandpa all of the luck and well wishes for finishing dahlia season 🫶🏼🌸 I’m making farmer Jake take us for a fine steak dinner once we finish this 🤪

attn: all cutting haters!!!

all in good fun, I love cuttings. sandia bliss as a cutting though can kick rocks. want a tuber? she’s not your girl. but you want roots? she’s got fibrous roots galore.

80% of the cuttings I grew this season produced more than 4 viable tubers. should I elaborate??? idk

the last week to get locally grown blooms from us — location is in stories 🌸🍂 your support this year has been a huge pillar in my life this season. growing flowers at this scale is hard, selling them is far harder. all of the events on the farm have been amazing. and all of the events away from the farm have been amazing too & im so grateful to have been invited to them! you asked us! that is so amazing, so thank you! There were a few set backs this season but at the end of the day I am still in awe of what this season did for me. the verse we’ve used for the farm since day one has always been psalm 18:19, he brought me out into a spacious place, he rescued me because he delighted in me. this farm has done that and more and we’ll share more on it if we’re ever called to do so.

anyways - this is the last weekend for local flowers! our dahlias are giving their final push and we’ve finished labelling and verifying their blooms. now we wait for the big brown frost when everything dies back and we dig them up!

if you were wondering how to grow our dahlias for yourself, our dahlia tuber sale will open in early spring 2027 🫶🏼🌸

love and flowers,

I’m working on narrowing down the amount of dahlia varieties we grow and I’m struggling because I do love them all but I also don’t need them all. I’ve culled a few for virus which helps eliminate the amount but not nearly enough 🙃 what’s a girl to do

dahlias are really showing off right now and hopefully will for 2 ish more weeks until season comes to a close. this time of year is absolute chaos 🥴 and I’m trying to beat the clock with all of my field organization and prep but it feels like I’m going in circles and not going to actually beat the frost. did I mention I have kids who are far busier than me!?! 😵‍💫🤪 we shall see!

Can I tell you something… last year I hated foliage and the year before that… and the year before that. but it’s growing on me. ESPECIALLY the most amazing fall foliage, mahogany splendor hibiscus. It stops everyone in there tracks when they see it because they think it’s a Japanese Maple in an arrangement 🍁 it’s truly remarkable

I was gifted 15 seeds of this earlier this season and each and every seed germinated. The plants grow over 5’ tall and produce strong branches. Legend has it, if you leave it long enough it’ll flower — but our zones season is coming to a close! I originally had this arrangment of MSH en masse but had some extra dahlias so I tossed them in just for funsies. Anyways — I’d highly recommend growing this foliage.

TIP! for wilting is to do the wiggle test prior to cutting just as you would a zinnia and store stems in a cool, dark room.

What do you think? Would you grow this?

Hobby gardeners and beginner farmers you’re included HERE 🌸

I had a lot of guilt and imposter syndrome when we began the process looking for grants a year ago but WOW… did you know all of this money just doesn’t get claimed because people don’t apply for grants? Some supply high tunnels, some supply natives, some just send you a check. It’s kind of wild — anyways,

I think I’m gonna really love this series 🥹

the dreamers disease is such an understatement IMO - I’ve been the ceo of many businesses since i was in single digits 🫠 drafted and designed my first office at age 10, writing contracts at age 11 and it just kept going from there 😂 actually hysterical because what do you MEAN I own a business (actually two) for REAL

inspired by my fav farmer couple other than Jake and I 🤪 cal & grant of & Lily Flower Farm in MN 🫶🏼🌸
