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!

Thanks so much Kevin & Heidi for the seed shop update and this beautiful holiday giveaway!
We were happy to hear of the date change for the seed shop, as our joy from the past few months has been in a tiny new human form. She has been such a gift, and our crop planning for next year is definitely happening later than usual. We’re so looking forward to showing a little one all about growing food and flowers and raising her on a cozy little farm in the forest.

This year has, no doubt, been challenging for everyone. To keep my sense of perspective amidst the chaos, I’ve come to realize I can meditate or pray anywhere; all I have to do is close my eyes and breath. This has brought me much peace. To keep my mind distracted, I’m daydreaming about planting in the new flower beds my husband and I prepared this fall – and shopping seeds, seeds, and more seeds. I can smell them now. Peace and safety to all -

I have always loved gardening and flowers since I was a kid. I grew up on a farm and loved all the wild flowers, the lilacs, sunflowers, the milkweed and thistle I found to be beautiful plants when they bloom.
I love the idea of these inspiring words and your giveway !
