Continue ShoppingTo lighten the mood and freshen spirits as we move to 2021 we are doing 24 straight days of giveaways!! Each giveaway is open for 24 hours. One every day until December 24th.
We are kicking off with Amy Merrick.
Amy Merrick, author of ON FLOWERS considers herself an accidental florist. As she speaks about it in interviews for her book, it’s about not knowing where her path was leading and being spontaneous. Well who hasn’t felt that way this past year? It’s Amy’s chapter on Humble Pleasures that resonates with us during times like these, even as flower farmers, we have learned to see the beauty in humble flowers like four leaf clovers, daffodils and even dandelions. Let’s face it, in a world of global pandemic we all need to find joy in the simple things.
Her book is an inspiration for those seeking to find meaning in a life of flowers. Amazing photography and easy to identify with word crafting.
Amy Merrick’s book, ON FLOWERS, Lessons from an Accidental Florist is our first of 24 days of giveaways this month. Today we celebrate humble things and our love for them. One lucky winner will receive Amy’s book and packs of Amazing Grey Poppies, Double Click Cosmos, and much sought after Eucalyptus seed from Stems Flower Farm.
For a chance to win leave a comment below. In your message share what has brought you joy in the past months, what growing flowers means to you, anything really, as long as it's meant to pick people up. EASY. This giveaway is open to Canadian shipping address only. Contest is open December 1st for 24 hours. Closes December 1st at midnight PT.
Of course, if you know someone who would be inspired by Amy and how she became an accidental florist, please share!

At least we have the flowers to look forward to next year. It’s gonna be a while yet before things get back to “normal” but nature doesn’t change. Stay safe and stay healthy everyone

Well, at times it feels as though there is more sadness than Joy I am an eternal optimist and really try to see the bright side of things!! Our Boxer Luna must sense that something has changed cause man she has been so ridiculously cute. She’s 8 years old recently has had several lumps removed (yikes). She continues to jump and spin and play like a puppy, she seems to adapt to how our moods are which is quite amazing!! Often staring deep into my soul lol. Another thing that has brought me great joy is my farm and the flowers it allows me to grow. I’m so grateful beyond words that I have this place to escape to that is actually my home. Blessed beyond words!!!

I am so thankful for four seasons. We flower farmers work so incredibly hard that by the time we tuck everything in for the winter we need a good rest. I love having this time to refresh. By the time spring rolls around again, we are raring to go!

What has brought me joy is how much time I have been able to spend with my kids. I have noticed how much time they are spending talking to me and my husband. They are teenagers so yes I’m loving the reconnection that this year has brought to my family! They are also very excited about my flower farm adventure I will be starting in 2021.
