this weekend was such a good one. i arrived home from a week on the coast of california to bright sunflowers, an abundant garden & a sweet husband.
on saturday, we spent the morning in the garden. we harvested over 100 bulbs of soft-neck garlic & about 30 bulbs of the hard-neck variety. they’re all now hanging in our barn to cure.
we also dug up potatoes! we were a little late in planting our crop this spring, but they produced quite well! we gifted some to neighbors & will eat or sell the rest. there’s nothing quite like a fresh potato! i plan to roast some this evening along with beets & broccoli.
the flowers in our garden are absolutely stunning this year! this is our second summer to plant sunflowers & zinnias along the dirt road for our sweet neighbors. it’s now a tradition!
also, friends! if you haven’t heard the news, we’re opening up our sweet & cozy freckled hen farmhouse studio for a floral workshop with stephanie of mosey posies on july 30th! you can register HERE.
stephanie will teach us how to create wildflower crowns & arrange mini bouquets of flowers! we will serve herbal iced teas & shortbread cookies + treat you to a sweet swag bag brimming with lovely goods. it’s such a fun & intimate way to learn about flowers from one of our local experts! spots are limited so register soon right here. xo!
