This box is loaded with our short stemmed mixed garden bouquets. These are currently selling for $8. Many customers are purchasing the bouquet along with the mason jar in which it is nestled. $10 for the works. JUST GRAB AND GO.

| Bells of Ireland |
Our second crop
of Bells of Ireland are coming on strong. These
will be in most all the bouquets until the end of the farmer's market
in late October.

| Old Vine Zinfandel |
John calls himself a "garagista". So besides turning into a floral arrangement studio each Friday, throughout most of the year in the garage we have tubs, carboys, barrels in the process of becoming wine.

| Harvest Fair Winners 2012 |
John's latest winners. Note that he has chosen to use pictures of our flowers for his labels. He has been entering his homemade wine at the Sonoma County Harvest Fair for many years.

Our daughter Erica was the inspiration for dabbling in flowers. We continue to be pleasantly surprised by the compliments we receive from our Farmer's Market customers and have launched into weddings now, as well.
Erica gave me this book, The 50 Mile Bouquet, and as I read through it I realized that is what we are actually doing - "slow flowers".
Of course, I knew about the "slow food" movement. Applying the concept to flowers made perfect sense to me. For more information about the "slow flower" movement, I have included the link below.
