I drive by my farm stand several times a day, as it is on the way to most of our family activities. I love looking out my window with anticipation, to see if flowers have sold or if any shoppers are admiring candles. It’s always exciting!

The height of farm season changes quickly and comes to an end with the first frost. Each year the weather brings new challenges. Sometimes keeping the stand open is a breeze and other times it can be more complex. Egg production slowed down early this year and I recently sold out of all our candles, bath soaks, produce and other goodies (thanks to our local patrons! :) While I had hoped to keep the stand open until the first week of December, the farm often decides for me. It felt like a good moment to let everything rest until Spring.

I can’t thank you all enough for all the farm stand support! I’ll still be posting projects here on the journal and on Instagram. The holidays are my favorite time of year for creating wreaths, candles and gifts for friends, so I hope you’ll enjoy glimpses of that. I feel so lucky to have a little farm and it’s a joy to share bits and pieces :)

We look forward to opening again in the Spring! See you then!
