Something to warm you up!

A few November sights...

from the flower farm...

to warm you up a bit...

on another cold Nebraska day!

A 'Berry' Happy Flower Lady!

The afternoon spent in our greenhouse took the sting out of winter's first winds...

eating fresh strawberries sure helped too!

A Wonderful and Productive Weekend!

A wonderful and productive weekend on the Flower Farm! Saturday's Fermenting class was so fun and informative! 

My sweetie worked hard to install the new pellet/corn stove. 

It's now keeping the beautiful blooms in our greenhouse warm...

while using environmentally friendly and easily renewable resources!

For some reason we always manage to find time to spoil Isabelle's five very busy kittens...

sorry for the blurry picture...they are now in constant motion!

In Case You Wondered...

We use Ladybugs as a preventative measure to keep our greenhouse pesticide free. 

These lovely ladies search out and eat any bad bugs that may have traveled into the greenhouse on our stock plants. 

In case you wondered what it looks like when 18,000 Ladybugs come to live on the Flower Farm...

here you go!

The Season's Final Class

One last Fermenting class for 2014...Saturday, November 1 at 10AM. Jennie Dunavin, a registered dietician with our Fremont Hy Vee will discuss the health benefits of this easy and affordable method of food preservation. Lots of samples to taste and recipes to share. Class will be held in TLC's gift shop and cost is $10.00. Very few seats remaining. Let us know if we can save one for you! 

Isabelle

A very plump Isabelle came to live with us a few weeks ago. She immediately adapted to life on the Flower Farm. A few days after her arrival she became the mom of five. Isabelle introduced us to her family this morning. 

Let's just say we've had some cute and cuddly breaks around here today!

Autumn Beauty

The beautiful colors of Autumn in the gardens, the greenhouse and fields!
