Announcing the small businesses and community groups that you can support this year at Christmas at the Mill! We’ll be flooding the mill with evergreens, homemade items and good vibes November 14, 21 and 22 ❤️

Some of our long time favorites and some new people for you to meet! Do you come with a list of must haves or let your heart guide you?! We can’t wait to see you there again for the best time of year!

Rodents, weeds, and things that probably should have already been in the garbage don’t stand a chance around this gal! Lots of cleaning progress made today at the mill to get ready for Christmas at the Mill November 14, Christmas at the Mill November 21 and Christmas at the Mill November 22!

Lots of un-fun jobs done today but it sure is still fun when we do those jobs together! I’m sure thankful for this brave mom of mine! 🥰

I am waiting until after our first hard frost to pepper you with evergreens content. But just know, you’ve been warned that it’s coming 😂

I’ll mix in some flowery stuff until after Halloween, but then it’s really GAME ON! 🌲

I can feel the switch in the air. The garden is winding down and soon I will be switching from dried and pressed flowers to evergreens! I love the seasonal switches for this little passion project of mine.

We started Christmas at the Mill in 2020 and it has become my favorite two weeks of the year. I take time off from my real job and assemble a crew of excellent women (and a few good men) to pull off beautiful arrangements, fun shopping and all the cozy vibes.

Keep an eye out for pre-order wreaths, announcements of the featured local artisans and inspiration for the wintery/greenery season.

But in the meantime I’m going to enjoy the rest of the garden and a few more pressed arrangements (even while getting all kinds of excited for what is to come!) ❤️

I have had a busy 2026 already, and it’s really fun to look back at all the different projects so far. Tell me your favorites! ❤️

The moms in your life will be thrilled for this little something! A bouquet that requires no maintenance and won’t die (it’s pre-dead! 😂) and a gift certificate to Rise + Shine Cafe! Best pancakes, skillets, sandwiches, salads, sweet treats, coffees…I could go on and on!

Get in touch to reserve yours for the moms in your life! ❤️💐

Big huge thank you to all who stopped in this weekend. You made this such a fabulous weekend for so many reasons.

By supporting our lunch and bake sale, you helped us raise almost $500 for our local youth!

The picture below is all that is left hanging on the wall, which is crazy! I know all the other vendors had lighter loads on the way home too. Your dollars, time and support make such a difference!

Our next planned events at the mill are November 14, 21 and 22 for our evergreen sales and Christmas at the Mill ❤️
