We have three large casinos locally. I have never gambled a dime at them. But give me a seed catalog and I am off and running!! #flowerfarminglove #flowers #flowerfarmerdreams #planttherainbow #cutflowergarden #cutflowers #youpickflowerfarm #youpickflowers #donahueiowa #misseffiesflowerfarm (at Miss Effie's Country Flowers and Garden Stuff) https://www.instagram.com/p/B88-t51AKuB/?igshid=1ttntbakcgcg3

This time of year, I don't own a flower farm. I own a mud farm. I slosh around and track mud everywhere. The porch, my kitchen and definitely my car. It is gray, dirty and depressing. But in just a few short months, I will grow flowers and harvest smiles. And that is what we hold on to in February! #youpickflowerfarm #youpickflowers #cutyourownbouquet #iowaflowers #flowerfarminglove #flowers #flowerfarm #iowaflowerfarmer #youpickflowers #agritourism #donahueiowa #misseffiesflowerfarm (at Miss Effie's Country Flowers and Garden Stuff) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8MDuYgASpE/?igshid=167hqa8dbsuyq

I am happy to announce that Iowa's First You-pick flower farm will be back for season #19!!! No ... we are not new and flashy. No ... we don't always grow the newest flowers. We try to grow flowers that succeed time after time to create long lasting bouquets for you. We will be smaller this year due to health issues and our hours will be changing. But ... WE ARE BACK, BABY!!! #flowerfarminglove #flowers #flowerfarm #iowaflowerfarmer #youpickflowers #youpickflowerfarm #thisisiowa #donahueiowa #misseffiesflowerfarm (at Miss Effie's Country Flowers and Garden Stuff) https://www.instagram.com/p/B73ZdlkgDtd/?igshid=2m14p2rstuj7

Our frosty sunrise drew me outside. I didn't clean the cutting garden this fall. I had many offers of help, but I needed this garden to rest this winter. The seed heads will feed the birds ... the roots will protect the bumblebees. We all need time to fallow. To rest ... be inactive ... be restored. It will be a busy spring. That is okay. Our souls will be healed. #flowerfarmerdreams #flowerfarminglove #farming #soulsearching #fallow #feedingwildlife #donahueiowa #misseffiesflowerfarm (at Miss Effie's Country Flowers and Garden Stuff) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5P9QnUAmII/?igshid=lesg1saekfey

Suddenly, autumn has arrived with golden fields and darkening skies. Storms are moving in this morning. We still have flowers .... but it is going to be a very wet weekend. We will see what next week brings. There is a time for every season under heaven. #harvesttime #rainyday #flowerfarminglove #seasonality #autumn #noskyscrapershere #icanseeformilesandmiles #zinnias #donahueiowa #misseffiesflowerfarm (at Miss Effie's Country Flowers and Garden Stuff) https://www.instagram.com/p/B26gVU_gwsF/?igshid=7k44s8iz5nkq
