Vintage Flower Farm

Grit Antiques Barn

If you follow me on Instagram Stories you know that I shared some exciting news.

After a long talk with my hubby on the barn porch the idea of a small Organic Flower Farm was born.

We have been tossing ideas around for our property for a while and finally decided it was time to seriously consider our options.

Without hesitation I chose flowers!

I then remembered my word for this year organic.

I had no idea at the time that it meant Organic Flower Farm, but I believe the seed was planted long before I realized.

Dreaming of being rooted here and taking what I grow to style in amongst my vintage pieces.

Each time…hopeful that I will evoke a feeling of simplicity & peacefulness.

When I’m behind my camera I think of days gone by and I often dream of what it would have felt like to live off the land.

I have spent hours researching what it will take to have a small Organic Flower Farm.

It will take all of me, but I feel the rewards will outweigh any challenges I may face.

Having our own flowers to harvest  feels like it will bring me and my photos one step closer to what I feel in my heart.

Sharing each step as we break ground to the tears and blooms.

Showcasing my simple style with bouquets of one variety, old-timey vases and vintage linens.

Taking my love of dried flowers to a whole new level.

Learning how to dry them perfectly in hopes of teaching others.

I’m sharing all of this news because I believe in sharing our dreams.

I often talk about this on my Instagram stories.

Always wanting to encourage and inspire you to share yours.

If the stars align and I take this leap of faith I will be taking you along with me on this journey.

It will demand a great deal of learning and time from me.

One I’m both nervous and excited about.

Kindly, xo

  • I am so happy to hear you have decided to grow your dream of growing flowers! I am so happy for you and look forward to following your journey! By the way we took a ride past that sheep and flower farm near here that I told your about but they were not open so I couldn’t get pictures. I will still try again in the near future! Remember to enjoy the process my friend….
