🍓 THIRTY. MINUTES. 🍓

That’s ALL it took to pick this many red raspberries tonight… and I didn’t even make it 2/3 of the way through the bushes! 😳😂

There is absolutely NO way our family can eat or preserve all of these in a timely manner, so guess what?!

👉 They’ll be at the Farmstand TOMORROW MORNING!
💰 $5 per container

And these aren’t your average grocery-store berries. ❤️

They have never been sprayed with herbicide, insecticide, or any of the other junk commonly used on commercial berries. Just good ol’ berries grown right here on our farm. 🌱

Grab a container. Wash. Enjoy. 🍓

And because I feel like the picture needs some context… 😂👇

Peek me: swatting black gnats away, sweating through my clothes, and picking raspberries like my life depends on it. 🫠🤣

Farm life is glamorous, folks. 😂❤️

WOW!!! Thank you to everyone who came out and supported our Bloom Bling & Boutique event last night! 🛍️❤️

We had SO much fun helping everyone pick out their favorite blooms at the bloom bar 💐 and sharing our local raw honey with you! 🍯

I’m still in awe of all the amazing women who showed up, showed out, and showed so much love to all of the vendors. 🥹❤️ Your support means more than you know—not only to us, but to every small business owner who puts their heart into what they do.

Thank you for shopping small, cheering us on, and making the night so much fun! See you at fall festival in St Ansgar next weekend! ❤️

Another little milestone in the home build! 🏡🤍

In this group of photos, the plumbing is done! We’re also putting in-floor heat in both the basement and the garage, which we’re especially excited about. 🔥

So many things happening underground and behind the scenes right now, but little by little, our home is taking shape! 🥹

If you see Ryan today, make sure to wish him a happy birthday! ❤️

He’s the best girl dad, husband, and lover of all things with four legs, feathers, or fur.

He’s the “yes man” to my never-ending “I have an idea…” and the “do-er” who somehow turns all of my wild visions into reality. I dream it up, and he figures out how to make it happen. 😂

He’s the never-tired-but-always-tired, always-showing-up, get-it-done kind of man. The one who works hard, loves hard, and gives so much of himself to the people and life he loves.

But watching him be a dad is my favorite part of all.

He wants to teach our girls everything — how to work hard, how to get their hands dirty, how to care for animals, where their food comes from, how to appreciate the country, how to be independent, how to try new things, and most importantly, how to be good humans.

He doesn’t just tell them about life; he brings them along for it. He lets them watch, help, explore, fail, try again, and learn.

One day, they may not remember every lesson he taught them, but I hope they always remember how it felt to grow up with a dad who was right there beside them, teaching them about the world and showing them what it means to love their family. ❤️

Happy birthday, Ryan. ❤️

There is just something SO satisfying about this. ❤️

A steaming-hot jar of spaghetti sauce coming out of the canner… and then that little ding that follows soon after. 🥫✨

We made A LOT of pasta sauce this weekend. I filled two 18-quart roasters to the brim with Roma tomatoes, turned them into tomato juice, and then added all the good stuff right into the roasters — seasonings, ingredients, and even fresh-chopped basil from the garden.

And let me tell you… there is something pretty dang special about knowing:

“I KNOW where my food came from because I grew it.” 🌱

I’m not a fan of all the additives, preservatives, and ingredients I can’t pronounce that seem to find their way into so much of the food at the grocery store.

So we’re doing more of it ourselves.

Grow it. Preserve it. Can it. Put in the work.

Keep your food supply chain local. 🧅🫑🍅🌿

One of the things I love most about our farm is the abundance of wildlife. 🦌🤎

This time of year, the yard seems to be FULL of does and fawns. The fawns spend their days playing, chasing each other and running in circles, while the mamas look on like, “Seriously? Can you PLEASE just chill out?” 😂

It’s pretty hard not to love watching them grow up right outside our windows.

That is… until they discover the crops we planted for ourselves. 😅🌱

Then suddenly these sweet little faces become the biggest freeloading brats on the farm. 😂🦌

A little more progress on our home! 🏡🤍

We don’t usually share photos of our everyday life as they happen—most of our posts are scheduled weeks in advance, so sometimes you’re seeing something that happened awhile ago and we’re just now getting around to sharing it. 😂

In this photo: the foundation is starting to take shape.

The Farmstand will be closed today. I’m taking some time to reset and prepare the fall product lineup. See you Monday!
