Poppies are one of those quiet overachievers—many varieties actually prefer to be direct sown in the fall, using winter to naturally stratify and emerge stronger in spring.

This year, they’re exceeding every expectation. And honestly… I needed that reminder. Feeling a little behind lately, but these blooms are proof that the work put in last season doesn’t disappear—it shows up when it’s ready, often more beautifully than you imagined.

Sometimes the best days are market days 🤍 We get to see each other, bring our bounty together, and fulfill some really special orders for local florists—getting Idaho-grown blooms into the hands of so many. It’s more than a passion… it’s a way of life. For me, that means no pesticides or harmful chemicals—just flowers grown the way nature intended. They smell different, they feel different, and the pollinators here absolutely love them. There’s something really special about bringing that kind of beauty into your home 🌿✨

When the world kicks me down, I come back here 🌱
Back to the routine. Back to the rhythm. Back to the quiet, steady work of growing.

These dahlia seedlings don’t rush. They just keep going—rooting, reaching, becoming. And somehow, that steadiness pulls me forward with them.

Good things do happen when I put in this work. Honestly, it feels like some of the most important work I’ll ever do.

Sometimes the best part of my week—no matter how good it’s been—is just getting out and cutting the grass. It always starts a little overwhelming, but an hour later everything feels clean, calm, and put back together. The smell of fresh cut grass, the hum of the tractor, and a quiet mind… happiness is mowing in my pj’s. 🌿🚜

Garden philosophy, as told by a woman with dirt under her nails, most days come down to two simple things—weed your own freaking garden and plant some seeds. It sounds basic, but it’s ancient wisdom… people have been tending land for thousands of years, pulling what doesn’t belong and nurturing what might. The first gardens weren’t about perfection—they were about survival, about showing up, clearing space, and trusting that something good would grow. And honestly, that still holds. Some days feel messy, overwhelming, out of control—but if I can get outside, yank a few weeds, press a few seeds into the soil, I remember that progress doesn’t have to be dramatic to be real. It’s quiet, it’s gritty, and sometimes it’s the only thing that makes sense… just take care of your own patch and keep planting anyway.

It’s flower lady season… which, let’s be honest, is always the case over here 🌱 but once daylight savings hits, everything shifts—the evenings stretch, the light lingers, and suddenly there’s no good reason to be inside. These days I only head in when I absolutely have to—either I can’t see anymore or I’m so covered in dirt I’ve basically become part of the garden—and honestly I wouldn’t have it any other way. Today’s adventure included saving Lucy from a bee sting, so consider this my annual PSA: keep Benadryl outside for quick action… because garden season is magical, but it definitely keeps you on your toes.

Somewhere over the last four years, I accidentally became more than a hobby farmer 🌱

What started as a way to slow down and find a little peace outside of work turned into a full dive into farming—irrigation, infrastructure, dahlia breeding, and creating a tiny ecosystem where birds, bees, frogs, snakes, and everything in between feel at home.

It’s honestly where I find my calm.

Last fall, I got to team up with some incredibly talented florists and flower farmers here in Idaho, and we tried to solve a problem we all share—how do we get these beautiful, locally grown flowers into people’s hands without running ourselves ragged or composting what doesn’t sell?

So we tested something simple:
Pre-orders + one central pickup spot.

And it worked.

But the best part? The people.

Flower farming can be a little lonely, and getting to connect face-to-face with others doing the same thing was hands down one of the most fun and fulfilling parts of the season.

So now… we’re building something bigger 🌸

✨ Ida Blooms Collective is officially taking shape
✨ We received a grant from
✨ We’re working with the University of Idaho Law School on business formation
✨ And we’re creating a local hub to connect farmers, florists, and our community in a better way

This is just the beginning and I can’t wait to see where it goes.

Today I showed up for myself, even when it was hard. 🌱

It took me a little longer than I planned, but the last of 26 cases of dahlias are finally tucked in for their winter sleep. There were moments this fall when I questioned everything — when it would have been easier to walk away and let the season end unfinished. Instead, I kept reminding myself to take one more step, do one more task, and protect the dream I’ve been building here.

Farming asks for a lot of faith. Every one of the 500+ dahlias I grew, dug, and stored this season is a leap of trust — they might not all make it through winter. But what if they do? What if next spring brings even more growth, more color, and the chance to share something beautiful again? With division and planting, next season could be the biggest yet.

This season was not easy, but I’m proud of the work, the persistence, and the quiet commitment it took to finish strong. Rest well, sweet tubers. We’ll see what spring brings.

I just dug up my first-ever harvest of Jerusalem artichokes! 🌻🥔✨

These plants were so cool to grow — they looked like a cross between sunflowers and Rudbeckia, tall and golden and full of light. They gave some shade to the garden when I needed it and sunshine when I didn’t, and now they’ve absolutely packed a punch on the harvest front.

I can’t believe how many tubers came out of the ground… like hidden treasures waiting all season to surprise me. Now the real question is: what the heck do I do with all of them? 😂

Roast them? Mash them? Make soup? I’m open to all the best Jerusalem artichoke recipes out there — drop your favorites below!

Before We Dig the Dahlias…
There’s still so much to do! Every day brings a new harvest — Friday it was potatoes, then came the green tomatoes, melons, beans, and squash. Next up will be the Jerusalem artichokes, and who knows what else we’ll uncover before the frost settles in. 🍂

The farm is shifting into that beautiful in-between season — where one chapter is winding down and the next is just waiting to be written in dirt and roots. Keeping our fingers crossed for decent weather as November creeps closer! 🤞🌾
