🌸 The Flower Stand is OPEN! 🌸

If you’re out and about enjoying Minetto’s town-wide yard sales today, be sure to add us to your list of stops!

We’ll have beautiful mixed peony bouquets available at the stand, along with plenty of other goodies. The stand is located at 3005 State Route 48, Oswego and will be open until we’re sold out.

And while you’re here, don’t miss the fun happening just two houses south at 2991 State Route 48! Not only will you find a yard sale, but you’ll also find a pretty awesome lemonade stand run by some hardworking little entrepreneurs. šŸ‹

Seriously—the lemonade is really good. šŸ˜‹

So whether you’re hunting for treasures, picking up flowers, or just out for a drive, stop by, say hello, grab a bouquet, and show these kiddos some love. A few dollars and a kind word go a long way in encouraging big dreams and hard work.

See you at the stand! šŸŒøšŸ‹ā˜€ļø

Not gonna lie, this flower farming season, and honestly my creative juju has been a little tough to get going.

The weather, the projects, life in general... it just felt like I was waiting for that spark.

But then the peonies arrived.

The fragrance of the stock from filled the workroom, the peonies started opening, and before I knew it, I had pulled out that trusty Lazy Susan and got to work creating.

These are the moments that remind me why I started this journey in the first place. Not just to grow flowers, but to create something beautiful from them. Three seasons ago, I bought that Lazy Susan with a dream of designing arrangements that felt special and intentional. Today, it felt good to dust it off and find that creative rhythm again.

Sometimes all it takes is the scent of fresh flowers and a bucket of peonies to remind you who you are. šŸ’•

Ronan got out of Pre-K and apparently headed straight for his second job. 🤪🌱

We finally got some dirt into the raised beds and were able to start planting plugs today. There’s something pretty special about watching these little hands help build something from the ground up.

The flowers may be the final product, but these moments are the real reason behind it all.

Now if only he worked for snacks and not union wages. šŸ˜‚

The sun is finally shining, the ground is finally hard enough, and we officially moved the raised beds into their new home. šŸŒžšŸŒ±

I said this year was going to look a little different around here… and this is part of that pivot.

We’re leaning heavily into the peonies and scaling back some of the summer annuals — not because we’re stepping away from flowers, but because we’re trying to grow smarter for this season of life.

There will still be plenty of beautiful blooms growing here this summer, enough for those signature bouquets you all know and love, just in a way that feels a little more manageable and intentional for our family right now.

The farm may look a little different this year, but the heart behind it hasn’t changed one bit. šŸ«¶šŸ»

Somewhere between the muddy boots, tiny gloves, and handfuls of weeds is the sweetest kind of childhood. 🌱✨

These flowers are grown with more than sunshine and water — they’re grown with family, patience, little helping hands, and a whole lot of love. Watching Cashel work beside me in the rows makes peony season feel even more special somehow. (He helped with planting every root 3 years ago)

Good things take time… and these blooms are going to be so worth the wait.

Hi friends šŸ’

Quick update—That Flower Stand on Forty-Eight won’t be open for Mother’s Day this year.

This season is all about pivoting. I didn’t plant the tulips you’re used to seeing this time of year—life with the boys (sports, school, all of it) is just full in the best way right now.

Instead, I’m focusing on growing peonies šŸŒøā€”they’ll take time, but they’ll be worth it.

The flowers are still coming… just a little later than usual.

Thank you for always reaching out and supporting the stand šŸ¤
This year, I’m soaking up Mother’s Day with my boys… and probably playing referee šŸ˜…

There’s just something about flowers for me. I’ve always loved planting them, cutting them, sharing them, and finding little ways to bring joy to others through them. And on Earth Day, that feels even more meaningful.

Everything is packaged up and ready to head to school tomorrow for the Hall boys’ classrooms. A little piece of That Flower Stand on Forty-Eight, shared with some very special little hands. I’ve always loved doing something extra for their classrooms, and I guess this is one of those traditions I’ll keep carrying on for as long as I can.

Maybe someday they’ll look back and realize just how much heart, time, and work their mom put into all these little things. But for now, I just hope these seed packs spark a little excitement, a little wonder, and maybe help grow a love for flowers, pollinators, and caring for the Earth.

Here’s to flowers, Earth Day, and doing the little things that make life feel beautiful. šŸŒŽšŸŒ¼šŸ’›

Feet of lake effect snow.
A buried flower stand.
And one little seed catalog bringing all the hope.

Oswego winters are no joke, but this right here is my reminder that the thaw always comes… and so do the flowers.

Dear summer me: please remember this moment before you complain about weeds.
