TFW you remember Remi Wolf has a new album when you’re making bouquets!! 😋

Tomorrow (Monday, 10/12) I will be vending at the Merriman Valley Pizza market for my last time this year! I’ll be bringing fresh garden bouquets (infused with my Mud album reflections lol), root veggies, greens, squash, herbs, and my Kale Next Door hand-printed shirts & totes! Come visit from 4-7pm tomorrow 🫜🥕

⭐️ALSO⭐️ I made another trip to the thrift store and will have a fresh batch of Kale Next Door shirts & sweaters coming up soon!! I will have more L-XXL sizes this time too! Stay tuned for updates on the timing of that drop. I will most certainly have them ready by the Small Business Saturday Market at House Three Thirty on 11/27! & Thank you to everyone who has been rocking their merch, it’s really an incredible feeling! 🌟

I’m also still (and almost always) open for shirts that you already own and would like me to print on! As long as the fabric doesn’t have too much of a texture that would interfere with the block print. Hit me up for more info! 📝

Oh, to be a radish in Akron, Ohio right now 🫜

The root veggies are coming in strong with the weather change these last few weeks 💪 At market tomorrow I will have radishes, carrots, beets, kale, bok choy, collards, chard, eggplant, a few tomatoes, & lots of vibrant flower bouquets! 🥕🌸

Tomorrow is the FINAL Hudson farmers market for the 2026 season! It’s hard to believe that it’s here already. It’s been such a pleasure to vend at this market with my own farm this season. I so enjoyed getting to know so many of you there! Thank you for all of your support - I hope to see you tomorrow morning for this year’s finale!! 💕

Good morning! Come by the Hudson Farmer’s Market today for the second to last market of the year! 🥲 I can’t believe it’s already that time. I’ll have an abundance of flower bouquets, greens, carrots, beets, eggplant, zucchini, peppers, tomatoes, onions & garlic braids. Come see me on the Hudson green 9-12:30 today! 🥕

This post didn’t make it up last night because I had the pleasure of visiting ROSY with my farming family, Chris and Fred Thaxton! ❤️ We had an immaculate meal (as always!!) & had a great time catching up. Thank you to the ROSY team for taking care of us! 💕

This weekend is a double-header weekend for me, with Hudson today and HiHo Harvest Fest tomorrow! Please join me tomorrow 10/4 from 12-5 HiHO Brewing Co. for all your produce, flower, & hand printed t-shirt needs 🥬💐👕 it’ll be a fun day with great weather!

Along with the freshly printed batch of shirts, I have lots of fun flower & veggie offerings for the Hudson Farmers market tomorrow morning 🌸🥕 & it should be a beautiful day!

I’ll be bringing kale, bok choy, herbs, carrots, beets, peppers, tomatoes, eggplant, zucchini, onions & garlic, and a sweet variety of hand tied flower bouquets. 🥬🥕🫜🍅🍆🥒🧅🧄💐

Shades of pink were definitely the theme of the week in flowers! I’m seeing a little boost in growth after all the rain too 🌧️ I’m trying to be intentional with enjoying every last bit of warm weather and enjoying the productive crops. Hope to see you soon!

Good morning! Here are some clips of my process of hand-printing the Kale Next Door shirts. I first learned the wooden spoon printing method in high school, and later learned many more printmaking processes in college classes. I don’t personally own a press but I do own a wooden spoon, and sometimes the simplest way works just fine! Maybe one day I’ll spring for a t-shirt press, but for now these smaller batches feel just right with a little dedicated time, some elbow grease, and intention. Just wanted to show some shortened clips what my process actually looks like! A huge shout out to my mom for helping iron all of these first after I washed them (not pictured) which was an enormous help!! 🫶👕

Find me at the Hudson Farmers Market the next 3 weekends to shop the full selection! I’ll have printed tote bags & small patches as well. I will also bring them to my booth at HiHo’s Harvest Fest on 10/4 HiHO Brewing Co. , and to the Merriman Valley Pizza market on 10/12 Merriman Valley Pizza ! Feel free to DM me to set up a time to stop out to the farm to shop if the markets don’t fit your schedule. Thanks friends!!👚

Each piece is one-of-a-kind (the beauty of thrift stores) and supports slow fashion 1️⃣

Did I mention they were all hand-printed (by me, with the back of a wooden spoon, for the love of the printmaking game 😮‍💨)

I’ll post more this week with a video of the printing process and with some examples of past shirts! There are also a limited number of tote bags & patches that will be available starting this weekend as well. 💼

Happy Friday! It’s that time of the year where the sun sets sooner and sooner, and I end up working into the dark many nights with a head lamp. Swipe to see a raccoon who was watching me harvest radishes earlier in the week 🦝👀 I think he’s a big fan of my compost pile!! lol

This week at market I’ll have some vibrant bouquets, tomatoes, eggplant, zucchini, peppers, kale, collards, bok choy, carrots, sage, thyme, basil, onions, garlic, & some freshly made garlic floral braids!

Wow, the weather today was so incredible!!! The crispness in the morning air really had me feeling alive 🌞

I have a little adjustment to my market schedule for y’all. First, I’m happy to announce that I’ll be back at HiHo Brewing on 10/4 for their annual Harvest Fest! The event is 12-5 pm, and I’ll be bringing lotsa good veggies & flowers. 🍻🥬🌻

Second, I have a slight adjustment to my originally posted market schedule. I am moving my spot at the Merriman Valley Pizza Market from 10/5 to 10/12. Three market days in a row is a lot for a lil farmer like me 🤪 so please stop by Merriman Valley Pizza to see me there one last time this season on 10/12! It’s been so fun to take part in their new market this year, I’ve had so much fun meeting the other vendors and patrons! 🍕

The Hudson Farmers Market is back to its regularly scheduled programming this week! I’m so grateful to have taken a little time to reset last week, and I’m excited to get back in the saddle 🏇🏻

I have loads of fun offerings this week coming to market! Tomatoes are plentiful (finally lol), peppers have begun to ripen, there are eggplants, bok choy, beans, zucchini, onions & garlic! I’ll also have a beautiful selection of blooms to choose from. The flowers have been so fun to grow & develop as a more substantial and regular offering this year. 🌻

Be sure to stop out tomorrow morning between 9-12:30 on the Hudson green. See you there! 👋

Big shoutout to for the lovely shots (1, 5, 8, & 12)!! You’re so talented and I had so much fun with these! Thank you so much 😘
