๐ŸŒธ Did You Know - Weโ€™re Growing (and Drying!) Flowers! ๐ŸŒธ

This year at Farming with Friends, we took our love of growing to a whole new level โ€” adding flowers to our fields! ๐ŸŒป๐Ÿ’ From vibrant zinnias and cheerful marigolds to golden sunflowers, our friends worked together to grow, harvest, and even dry these beautiful blooms.

The best part? Weโ€™re putting those dried flowers to good use โ€” we will be creating one-of-a-kind holiday wreaths that will bring warmth and color to the winter months and your homes. STAY TUNED!

Itโ€™s been incredible to see how flowers can brighten spirits, spark creativity, and build connections. And next year, weโ€™re excited to expand our flower program even more โ€” growing new varieties and finding more ways to share their beauty with our community. ๐Ÿค˜

Check out some of the fresh and dried arrangements that were made this year at the farm.

๐Ÿค˜ Weโ€™re still feeling the love from our Fun on the Farm event at Crown Point Ecology Center! ๐ŸŽ๐Ÿ“โœจ

What an incredible day โ€” full of laughter, smiles, and community. Seeing families explore the farm, kids getting their hands a little dirty, and everyone connecting over farming, food, and friendship truly filled our hearts.

We put together a little video of photos from the event so you can relive some of those special moments with us ๐ŸŽฅ๐Ÿ’•

A huge thank you to everyone who came out, supported, volunteered, and helped make the day such a success. Your energy and kindness are what make our mission come alive.

And guess what? Weโ€™re already dreaming and planning next yearโ€™s event โ€” even bigger, brighter, and just as full of love. ๐Ÿค˜

A huge shout out to Progressive and other businesses that allow VTO (Volunteer Time Off) for their employees to serve their communities and strengthen their teams. Days like these are a win for everyone!

Today our volunteers moved some heavy tarps around, trimmed onions for winter storage, weeded our fall crops, and watered the tunnels. Afterward, we toured the pine grove and wildflower trail at Old Trail School, then headed over to Crown Point Ecology Center for a meet and greet with some adorable critters! (You, too, can meet their chickens, goats, and pigs in a few weeks at Fun on the Farm: An Ability Inclusive Fall Harvest Festival!)

Thank you, Progressive, for a beautiful day of farming with friends! ๐ŸคŸ
