🌱 At this month’s Little Sprouts, our tiny gardeners got their hands dirty building their very own mini worm farms in mason jars, learning firsthand that some of nature’s hardest workers are the ones we rarely see.

We talked about composting, decomposition, healthy soil, and how worms quietly help gardens thrive from the ground up. And yes… every child went home with their own pet worms.

These classes are about so much more than a craft or activity.

They are about raising curious kids.
Teaching them where food comes from.
Helping them understand the rhythms of nature.
Creating space for wonder, messy hands, questions, and community.

Thank you to every family who continues to show up month after month and trust me with your little ones. It is such a joy to teach these children and watch their confidence grow alongside the garden.

Next month at Little Sprouts, we’ll be exploring the wildflowers growing around the farm, learning how to identify what’s blooming, why pollinators need them, and letting the kids experience the beauty of summer on the property.

If your child loves nature, digging in the dirt, collecting treasures, or asking a million questions about bugs and flowers… this is for them.

If your raised garden bed is still just an idea in your head… this is your sign.

Garden season is HERE in Colorado, last frost is behind us, and if you’ve been telling yourself “I’ll figure it out later”… later is now.

This Saturday, May 16 | 10AM–12PM here at the farm, I’m teaching my Raised Garden Workshop for the women who are DONE feeling overwhelmed by gardening advice online and just want someone to walk them through it step by step.

We’re covering:• how to properly set up and fill a raised bed• soil health (what actually matters and what doesn’t)• what to plant right now in Colorado• spacing, succession planting, and maximizing harvests• watering, fertilizing, and keeping your garden thriving through summer• how to avoid the beginner mistakes that waste time and money

You’ll leave with practical knowledge, starter plants, a workbook, and the confidence to go home and FINALLY start the garden you’ve been dreaming about.

And honestly? If you’ve been waiting for the perfect moment… this is it.

Because if you close this post and think “I’ll sign up later,” life will happen, baseball practice will happen, camps will happen, and suddenly it’s June.

Right now, here in Colorado, we are experiencing, yet another, hard drought.

We came out of a winter that barely felt like winter at all. The snowpack—the very thing that feeds our rivers, our reservoirs, our farms—has fallen to record lows, with some measurements showing less than 40% of even the previous worst year on record. This is the kind of number that doesn’t just stay in the mountains. It moves. It makes its way down into our rivers, into our reservoirs, into the soil beneath our feet.

And we’re already feeling it.

Cities across the Front Range are beginning to respond. Water restrictions are being put into place earlier than usual. Outdoor watering is limited. Conservation is no longer a suggestion—it’s a necessity. In some areas, reservoirs are being drawn down and carefully managed just to ensure there will be enough water to sustain communities through the months ahead. Farmers are preparing for reduced allocations, knowing that some fields may not be planted at all this season.

There’s a quiet tension in it. A shared understanding across the state that if the water doesn’t come, everything changes. Because here, water is not just convenient. It is a privilege.

And as I’ve stood out in our fields since last fall, watching the soil begin to dry and tighten, wind blowing warmer and harder, the ground never freezing, I began a routine. With my head down I began going through the motions of hooking up hoses, and unhooking hoses, hauling hoses from zones to zones, and doing it all again in a few days. Now spring is here, and I've managed to keep almost everything alive over winter, but I’ve realized something.

The land isn’t the only place where drought can slowly settle in….

And honestly… he’s not wrong.

If your hands have been itching to get in the soil, if you’ve been staring at your yard wondering where to even begin, if you’ve bought seeds but haven’t started… this is your moment.

Join me on May 16th for our How to Prepare and Plant Your Garden in Colorado workshop here at Shari Ann Farms in Kiowa.

This isn’t just a class. It’s a guided, hands-on experience designed for real life gardeners in Elbert and Douglas County who want to walk outside after the workshop and actually start.

Inside the workshop, we will cover:
• How to prepare your soil and raised beds for Colorado’s dry climate
• What to plant right now after last frost and what to wait on
• How to space, plant, and support your crops for success
• Watering strategies that actually work in our conditions
• Common mistakes that cost you your harvest and how to avoid them

You will leave with:
• A clear, step-by-step plan for your own garden
• 4 starter plants ready to go into your beds
• A workbook you can reference all season
• The confidence to plant your garden the moment you get home

By this point in the season, the window is open. The soil is warming. The overwhelm is real for a lot of women. This workshop is designed to remove that completely.

Spots are limited and this is the one everyone has been waiting for.

Reserve your seat now and step into your garden season with clarity, confidence, and momentum.

Kiowa, Elizabeth, Parker, Castle Rock, Franktown — this one is for you.

"It might actually be sometimes"…. I remind myself during this season of sowing, digging, tilling, installing, and planting 😅

I’ve dreamt of all the Christmas wreaths I could display on this horse trailer since I first dreamed of this horse trailer. And today, we got to try it out. Dreams do come true. 🥰🎄

Thank you everyone for selling us out of wreaths AND centerpieces. I love what I do, and brining this work into your homes ESPECIALLY for the holidays is the fire that lights me up. So thank you!
