If you visit us this Cozy Season, you may notice that there are still some dead summer flowers up. They may look spent, but they are serving as valuable resources for the lives of winter woodland friends.
An important part of being a grower is treating the land like the sanctuary it truly is. While we named our workshop barn “The Flower Sanctuary” because it’s a safe space for us humans, we also maintain our land as a safe space in nature by growing organically, not growing invasives, not using harmful design materials like floral foam, and always considering how our actions affect the environment.
The dead plants’ hollow stems serve as a home for insects, the seeds serve as a food source for birds, and the roots serve as a food source for worms & microbes in the compost. The animals & insects were here first. It is also important to acknowledge the history behind this land - in our case, the land in our area belonged to the Delaware & Miami native tribes, until 1818 when the land was seized. In an area where there is not much nature left to celebrate, we are so grateful for the opportunity to preserve these eight little acres in Indiana while we can.
So if you visit this Cozy Season and see our “messy” flower beds, please know that what you’re actually seeing is a sanctuary. You may even see some deer, bunnies, & birds. ❤️❄️🦌🐦⬛🐰
Looking forward to celebrating the season with a few more Wreath Workshops. Thanks for being here to enjoy our little flower farm in the woods. ❤️🌲
