Long before the fields are filled with blooms, there’s the work you don’t always see.
The early mornings, the dirt under my nails, the aching back, the quiet moments of hoping and trusting that all this effort will turn into something beautiful.

Every seed planted carries a piece of my heart — a dream that these flowers will not only grow, but bring joy to the people who wander these rows, clippers in hand, smiles on their faces.

This video is just a little glimpse of the love, labor, and passion poured into these fields. Thank you for being part of the story.

Last week we did a controlled burn on all the overgrown grass areas to promote grass growth by removing dead plant material, return nutrients to the soil and reducing thatch. Over the next couple months we plan on frost seeding and drilling native gasses and wild flowers throughout most of the property. Spring cannot come soon enough!

Today was a perfect day for a control burn. We lit fire to roughly 20 acres of over grown grass for some natural regeneration. Over the next couple weeks/months we will be planting some native grasses and more wild flowers

❄️Now that we are finally getting some snow, unfortunately we are unable to open the tubing hill for the remainder of this season due to unforeseen circumstances 🚫

📢 Tubing Hill Update! ❄️

Hey everyone! We’re just as excited as you are about the snow we got today! 🙌 While it’s awesome to see the ground covered, we want to give you a quick update on why we aren’t open just yet.

To make sure you have the best tubing experience, we need a solid base of snow that can handle the fun. With 30 tubes available every hour, that’s a lot of up-and-down action all day long! 🎿

Right now, we need a few more good snowfalls and consistent below-freezing temperatures during the day to get the hill prepped and groomed perfectly for all of you. This helps ensure a safe and super fun time for everyone!

Thank you for your patience and excitement—trust us, we can’t wait to welcome you to the hill soon! Stay tuned for updates, and let’s hope for more snow! ❄️⛄

The wait is almost over! The ground is frozen, and now we’re just waiting on snow to open our snow tubing hill! 🛷✨ Get ready for epic rides, music, cozy burn barrels, fancy drinks, and strobing lights along the path. Stay tuned—we hope winter fun is coming soon! ❄️🔥
