It has been a longggg season....March - December.... Surprisingly November still gave us blooms......October up till mid November I worked on putting the gardens to bed. With the warm November I didn't complete pulling out and covering because I was still cutting! After November 15 th for 3 1/2 weeks I was working on evergreens 7 days a week... I am running out of steam these days. Looking forward to some hibernation, cross country skiing on the farm and re-organizing everything I ignored this year!!! Lot's of house cleaning to do too.....
But my head is already in next years gardens! My first seed order came in.... Yes I had to get my orders placed in December.... I am hearing about all kinds of shipping problems and shortages... so I managed to get 2 orders in... 2 months earlier than I normally do....
Wait till you see my sunflowers this year!!!! Will be planting all kinds of unique colors... from red, to plum to white sunflowers! And of course yellows.... Can't wait for the blooms!
For unique fragrance I will be growing cinnamon basil... great in cut bouquets I hear...
Cockscomb... some cool and unique colors coming....
Christmas isn't over yet.... so I am still in and out of my workshop.. as I prepare for my own holidays..... If you are looking for anything evergreen I can do it! I've become immune to the fragrance... but I have been told my workshop smells amazing! Imagine the smell of evergreen, eucalyptus,lavender and rosemary combined.... pretty amazing.....
Feel free to schedule an appt, or if you prefer we can schedule a front porch pick up/ aka grab and run.....
Still looking for the perfect Christmas gift..... Give the gift of flowers.....
The 12 months of flowers is actually 13 assortments.......Dec 2020-Dec 2021...... and I will even throw in monthly delivery..... ( West side of Rochester only, according to my schedule)
The seasonal CSA can be customized by you! Once a month, twice a month or weekly! Small, medium or large...... and you choose your months..... and I will email the recipient a certificate.......
Won't be long till 2020 is past.... looking forwards to a brighter 2021! Merry Christmas! Brenda
P.S. The picture is of a December wedding bouquet, ordered 10 days prior ... fresh cur from the December garden...
