Whew, it has been a little crazy around here. Flowers coming out of my ears. All of the ranunculus have protested the sudden near 90 degree days after holding holding holding for so long; they had a meeting and decided they would all bloom over a two-three week period. Not too many nonconformists among them. Despite having planted them over a course of two months. Thanks ladies.
We took 13 buckets of them to market on Sat. A total of over 30 buckets of flowers. Holy crap. Not sure the weather will be as kind this coming Sat. but here's crossing my fingers sales are just as good!
I couldn't have done it all without my right hand flower woman Emily--thanks Em, you make it bearable. Ruth is coming along as a flower helper herself....she usually pulls up the whole plant at this point, but I think she gets the gist of it. Apologies for the terrible pictures from market. I forgot the camera in the whirlwind of spring flower madness!

Hello Alice, are you at the State Farmer's Market or Carborro? I'm local- Durham -and would like to stop by for some flowers. Do you have a u-pick option at the farm? Ruth is adorable and the picture of health. Thanks, Barbara.
I read your info and will have to stop by the Durham Farmer's market for some flowers and produce. Coincidentally, I was at Duke Gardens on the 27th and saw a wedding being set up. I was told that the gorgeous flowers were from Bluebird Meadows!
