Emotional Post
I’m getting a little in my feels today… 🥹❤️
We are officially only 2 DAYS AWAY from The Great Farm Stand Crawl, and I don’t think it has fully hit me until now that this little idea I had is actually HAPPENING.
I’m not the first person to come up with a Farm Stand Crawl. I saw something similar on social media a long time ago and immediately fell in love with the idea. I wanted SO badly to do something like it here… but at the time, I was the only farm stand in our area for quite a while. So I tucked the idea away and hoped that maybe someday the time would come.
And now… the time came. 🥹
There are more of us now. More farm stands, porch bakeries, small businesses and people chasing their own dreams. I was able to reach out, connect everyone, organize it and finally make this idea come to life.
I have put SO much thought, time, heart and effort into this crawl. From the passports, the giveaway baskets, reaching out to businesses, organizing all the little details, connecting with other local businesses and everything in between… and seeing how our community has come together for it has honestly been incredible.
And today I’m just sitting here thinking about how far I’ve come.
3 years of baking.
2 years with my little shed.
And now 1 year with our big, beautiful farm stand. ❤️
Sometimes when you’re constantly working, baking, prepping, cleaning, planning the next thing and just trying to keep up, you don’t stop long enough to look around and realize… wow, I really did this.
And I’m proud of myself. I’m proud of what Glam Girl Bakery has become. I’m proud that I took chances, kept going, kept dreaming bigger and created something that my family and I get to watch grow.
But with that pride comes a really heavy feeling too.
Because moments like this are the moments when it hits me the hardest that my parents aren’t here to see it. 💔
I would give anything for them to see my stand. To see the people who show up and support me. To see how much this little bakery has grown. To see this Farm Stand Crawl that I somehow managed to put together actually happening. I wish I could tell them everything I’ve accomplished and hear them tell me they’re proud of me.
I like to believe they already know. ❤️
So yes… I’m emotional today. I’m exhausted. I’m excited. I’m nervous. I’m incredibly grateful. And for once, I’m allowing myself to be really freaking proud of how far I’ve come.
Thank you to every farm stand, porch bakery, local business and person who said YES and helped me bring this idea to life. And thank you to this community for supporting my crazy ideas and this little dream of mine over and over again.
Two more days. 🥹
The Great Farm Stand Crawl is about to happen, and this one means more to me than most people will ever know. ❤️
Mom & Dad… I hope you have the best seats in the house for this one.
