The Flower Bed

Tonight was the last class for witch's brooms. It was so fun to see all the brooms turn out so different.
A big thank you to StayRooted_NH for having us!!

Sometimes on a flower farm things feel like they move slowly.. waiting on seeds in the mail, planting a seed and waiting on a terrible tiny sprout. But sometimes things move quickly, over night even. When frost comes there is no maybe, no tomorrow.. the season is over, even if we are ready or not.
It is bittersweet to be done for another season, but the process of next years flowers has already begun.
I will dig up 200 dahlias and replace them with 1,000 tulip bulbs, a promise that spring will come and more flowers will be shared!!
Thank you to everyone who has been on this journey with us and for supporting this little flower farm.
Stay tuned for news for next year!!!

A sweet write up about us!!

I was technically off duty when Cackleberries held their end-of-summer event. Tara was there selling Biederman's Pepper Jelly. I was not. Did that stop me from showing up anyway to take pictures, scope out the situation and generally not mind my own business? Of course not.

I wandered around checking out the vendors and taking pictures, which was at least vaguely related to Biederman's for a little while. Then I got distracted by the food, had one of the best burgers I've had in recent memory and, naturally, followed it with a c***r donut. Again, I would like to emphasize that I was not working. I was just apparently incapable of staying home when something interesting was happening.

Before the burger derailed whatever professional purpose I was pretending to have, though, I noticed what was parked directly beside Tara's Biederman's setup. She had somehow hit the vendor-neighbor jackpot and spent the afternoon next to this ridiculously adorable old turquoise truck overflowing with flowers.

I remember being a little jealous of her view. The weathered turquoise paint, the rust, the wood, the flowers tucked everywhere, the pumpkins — the whole thing was so perfectly put together that it was hard not to stare at it. And because whoever created this clearly wasn't satisfied with merely having the cutest display at the event, the name on the front was The Flower Bed.

It's a truck bed. Full of flowers.

I appreciate this level of commitment to a pun.

I didn't know anything about The Flower Bed at the time, but I recently found them on Facebook while going through my backlog of photos and immediately remembered how much I loved this thing. Apparently I took enough pictures of it to prove that I was considerably more interested in Tara's neighbor than I was in whatever I had supposedly shown up to accomplish.

In my defense, I did eventually take pictures of the pepper jelly. I also ate the burger, ate the c***r donut, wandered around looking at everyone else's stuff and then went home having accomplished absolutely nothing that anyone had actually asked me to do.

It was a very productive day off. 😂

The flowers are definitely on borrowed time. The dahlias are still happily flowering but that could change any day with frost. We will set out the self serve stand tomorrow. Come enjoy them while they last!!

I don't often get to enjoy the flowers unless I am out in the field or making arrangements. So today I made myself one and it makes me smile every time I see it.
I wanted to thank all our followers who have supported us this season. Some of you are just finding us and some have been with us for years, but either way we are so happy to feel so much encouragement and kindness!!
The flower season is slowing wrapping up we are done with pops up, but will have the self serve stand open on weekends till the weather allows.
