Specializing in cut flowers and floral design in Nevada City, CA. We acknowledge that we live, love and farm on the ancestral land of Nisenan Tribe.

Can't get enough of this glass gem corn. I saved a lot in order to make a big wreath, but then in some preliminary attempts I was pretty unsuccessful, wire and any kind of base didn't really work. I think the only way is to use a ton of glue which kinda killed my buzz, or more like, just wasn't really what I imagined. So instead, a mandala, on this cool and blustery day, as we isolate to slow the spread, and share with one another what we are thankful for.

Gratitude to the native peoples, whose land we now inhabit, who tended to and saved corn seeds, generation after generation, so that we may all be nourished. Gratitude to all our ancestors who worked and loved and sometimes fought so that we may be here. Gratitude to the soil, the air, the fungi, the worms, the trees, the rivers, the ocean, the clouds, and our whole breathing, living planet. Gratitude to my family, blood and chosen, for the love, support, compassion and joy you show and inspire in me.

The only wreath left from yesterday's market!

I really wanted to express my gratitude for everyone who has been supporting us and all the farmers/artisans @nevadacityfarmersmarket this season. Thank you to all of you who have kept us afloat, and kept us motivated, by your purchases but also by your kind and compassionate words. Yesterday felt like such a sweet reunion with our customers, and we got so much wonderful feedback about how people have really enjoyed our flowers this year in particular. So many folks stopped by to express their excitement of our dried bouquets, their joy at Willow's news, and to thank us for the flowers we have grown for them and their families during the summer. Pandemic, illness, wildfires, smoke, racism, economic struggles, elections, isolation from friends - we've all been thru the ringer and it's still going strong.

Willow and I really didn't know what this farm season would bring - whether we should throw in the towel, or just grow food, or just stand on the street and give away flowers. We kept planting seeds and prepping beds regardless, even with many stretches of time with terrible morning sickness (Willow) and little to no childcare (Maisie). But somehow we just kept showing up to the farm. Because it needed us. And we needed it. We could not have done it without so much help - mainly from @karounalaluna @muddauberfarm @pollymaby and @mountainmatilija who really showed up, with laughter and tears and strong bodies to help us dig, weed, harvest and arrange out on the land.

Just wanted to say thank you, to all of you we don't know well but who are all part of the web of this community. Different beliefs, different passions, different ways of coping with what's going on - regardless of our differences, I really love this town.

This wreath is available ($55) and we'll be making some more this winter, just need a little break for a few days!

You can tell it's the first day of rain in Nevada

You can tell it's the first day of rain in Nevada County because we have posted half a dozen times, and also because we didn't all week leading up to today because we were too busy digging the last dahlias, planting cover crop, getting fall transplants in the ground and finally sealing this fence you see here in this picture.
Some more beauty coming at you tomorrow @nevadacityfarmersmarket - which by the way, the weather says clear and partly sunny, woot woot, glad this rain is all today!
