Hello everyone! For the first time in 9 years I will be closing early. This will be the last week for flower bouquets 💐 I will bring bouquets to Markets until my buckets are empty, or Sunday, which ever comes first. This also means no pumpkin bouquets 💐🎃. My gardens have stopped being productive. The extreme heat and high humidity/rain pushed flowers to bloom way too fast. Now that the night time temperatures have dropped drastically for weeks the plants are barely growing. I am also feeling pretty tired too!
I have also made another huge decision which will come has a shock to most of you. This week will also be my last season being your “Flower Lady”💐 It is time for me to take a break! Right now I do not know if it is for just a season or two or permanent. I won’t be taking apart or selling off my equipment for a while. I want to settle into my decision before moving things too fast.
It has been an amazing 9 years. Even though there have been many ups and downs over the years, I loved bringing joy and happiness to so many people. I have had the privilege of sharing the happiest moments in your lives and also many heartbreaking moments. The community support has been such an amazing part of the journey.

My little bouquet wraps became so much more then I could ever imagined. I have heard many of you say, “I just needed a little pick me up today!” Or “I’m giving this to a friend”. These little bouquets stayed $5 because I wanted everyone to be able to enjoy them.
BOUQUET GIVE AWAYS!
One last thing I would like to accomplish this week is to make 10 x $15 bouquets to give away on Saturday. In part, these bouquets have been sponsored by a donation from “Oops Puppies” 🥰🐶 and “William Dam Seed” (An order of Gladiolus bulbs were sent to me by mistake and they told me to keep them 🥰).
Mission, Acts of Kindness Draw:
1. Share/like post to get the news out.
2. Send me a private message with the name of someone you think needs a bouquet and why.
3. I will select 10 people from entries and send you a message if selected.
4. Pick up bouquet at Riverborn or Elderkin’s Market on Saturday or Sunday to give to that person.
Some examples:
- a senior living alone
- a neighbor who helps you
- someone who just lost someone close to them
- someone who is sick
- someone who is going through a lot right now
- someone who is a single Mom
- someone who needs a pick me up!
- someone you encountered in the service industry that went above and beyond for you.
Thank you for 9 wonderful years! 🥰💐
