Flow of farm work
Farm Update:
The farm continues to roll right along. I don't feel entirely prepared for the coming summer season but I'm trying to take it in stride/ ease. I'm learning to relax into things a bit more and only do as much as I can do. I'm learning to better delegate and rely on my crew. Last Friday we planted our first round of cosmos and this week we got our phlox, poppies and violas in the ground. I am hoping to plant our dahlias and our lisianthus this week! I am headed to Sunol today to pick up more plant babies from our greenhouse so we can pot them up for our plant sale. I am excited that we now have a date for our plant sale. Please get your pre-orders in! I'll be updating the shop this evening. I love thinking about all the plant starts finding homes where they will provide you all with beauty and sustenance.
This week we are donating our profits from our popup to POOR Magazine. We're also looking to donate some flowers if you know of someone in the East Bay in need of some beauty.
Hope you all are doing well.
Reach out with any questions, thoughts, or words of encouragement.
Best,
Joanna

You can sign up to receive a flower share each week, every other week or every month. Signup for the whole season or part of the season. The share includes a mixed bouquet using flowers from our rooftop farm. You can also add-on a bunch of seasonal blooms. These shares are available for pickup or delivery.
Our CSA is a great way to support us and enjoy our flowers throughout the season. As a CSA member you get to be an integral part of our farm and learn about what we do and how and why we do it! Hopefully we can offer a tour day this fall as well.
NOTE- I'll be creating a FAQ sheet for our Flower Share but please reach out if you have any questions!
Pickup is available at the following locations: Pickup day will likely be on Thursdays, deliveries on Friday's.
