Faivor Fresh Produce & Flowers

09/02/2026

Sweet corn, tomatoes, kohlrabi, and a new sign… oh my! 🌽🍅🥬

The farm stand is looking a little more Faivor Fresh than ever! ❤️

Fresh produce is filling the shelves, the flowers are blooming, and we finally have a new sign out by the road to help you find us! And, of course, we had to have our littlest helper there for the sign installation. 😉

Seeing the stand stocked with the fruits of our labor is one of those moments that makes all the early mornings, long days, and hard work worth it. 🌻🚜

Come see what’s fresh this week—and keep an eye out for that new sign! 🌽🌸

Sometimes the best pictures aren’t the ones you plan. ❤️

There’s a whole lot going on in this picture… vegetables piled high, flowers blooming, the farm stand getting stocked, one little princess sitting right in the middle of it all… and apparently a tomato thief helping herself to the goods. 🍅😂

This is one of the things I love most about raising our kids on the farm. They don’t just see the work that goes into growing everything—they get to be part of it.

They grow up knowing that food starts with a seed, flowers take patience, and a family business takes a whole lot of hands.

And sometimes those hands are wearing princess dresses… while other little hands are sneaking tomatoes. 👑🍅

Someday, I hope they look back at pictures like this and remember more than just the vegetables and flowers.

I hope they remember being little, being loved, and growing up right in the middle of it all.

Because this farm stand is more than something we built to sell what we grow.

It’s part of the childhood we’re building for our kids. 🌱❤️

From the flower field to the floral cooler… this feels like a pretty big milestone. 🌸

This dahlia is blooming right where all of this starts—with a seed, a tuber, a plant in the ground, and a whole lot of work before it ever becomes a bouquet.

For years, we’ve figured things out as we’ve gone. I’ve converted freezers into refrigerators because we needed somewhere to keep our flowers cool. I even ordered a floral cooler from Amazon once, only to have it arrive damaged. After waiting a month, I finally had to send it back.

And you can’t just stick fresh-cut flowers in any old refrigerator and expect them to be happy. Flowers need the right temperature and humidity to stay hydrated and last. A regular household refrigerator is designed for food, not fresh-cut flowers.

So when I look at this cooler filled with flowers from our own fields, I see more than a piece of equipment.

I see years of making do.

I see the flowers we’ve grown, harvested, conditioned, and turned into bouquets for our customers.

I see our little flower business growing enough that we finally needed—and were finally able—to invest in the equipment to care for those flowers the way we’ve always wanted to.

This is our first floral cooler that we can officially say we own. 🥹💐

And somehow, seeing it filled with buckets of our flowers makes it even sweeter.

From that dahlia blooming in the tunnel… to a bucket of freshly harvested flowers… to a bouquet that someone gets to take home.

That whole journey happens right here.

It may look like “just a cooler” to someone else.

But to us, it’s one more little sign that all those years of “we’ll make it work” are slowly turning into “look what we’ve built.” ❤️🌱

The farm stand is looking pretty good this week! 🌻🥒🫑🌱

We’ve got summer squash, patty pan, zucchini, cucumbers, peppers, eggplant, herbs and more filling the shelves, along with fresh bouquets bringing all the color. 💐 There’s just something about seeing everything together that makes us stop and appreciate how much this little farm can produce.

We’ve also been making a few additions to our herb selection on Wednesdays. Herbs can be a little tricky because they don’t keep super well without refrigeration, so we’re trying to bring them out in smaller amounts and keep them as fresh as possible. 🌿

And one of our favorite little farm stand traditions—we’re always taking recycled jars! ♻️ If you have clean jars you’re no longer using, we’d love to give them another life. We use them for our bouquets and herb bunches to help keep everything fresh while it waits for its new home. 💚

So stop by, take a look around, grab some fresh produce, pick out a bouquet, and maybe even leave us a jar or two for the next round!

What would you reach for first—the flowers, vegetables, or fresh herbs? 🌻🥒🌿

Opening Day is here! 🌻🥒💐

After all the planning, planting, growing, harvesting—and a whole lot of work—we are officially OPEN at the Faivor Fresh farm stand! ❤️

The girls even got in on the work this year, helping give the stand a fresh coat of paint and adding their own little touches along the way. There’s just something special about watching the kids become part of the farm and this business we’ve been building since 2011.

Today you’ll find fresh-picked vegetables, beautiful farm-grown flowers, and a whole lot of family behind every bit of it. 🌱

From our fields to our stand, we’re so excited to finally open the doors and share what we’ve been growing with you!

Come stop by, grab some fresh produce or a bouquet, and celebrate opening day with us! 💐🥒🌻

And if you’ve been waiting for the roadside stand to open… THIS IS YOUR SIGN! 😉 we are located at 1302 E Price Rd, St. Johns.

We will NOT be attending the Dewitt Farmers Market today. We will be showing lambs at the Saginaw County Fair. We are however taking orders for pick up if anyone is still in need of their flower or vegetable fix. We currently have $7 vased bouquets, yellow and green zucchini, summer squash, patty pan squash, cherry tomatoes and herbs. Thanks to all who have preordered already this week.

This year we put up a fence around all of our gardens, hoping it would keep the deer where they belong. But if you’ve ever farmed, you know a fence is only as good as the last time you checked it.

So every evening, our four-legged farm helper gets a walk around the perimeter. 🐾 Together we inspect the fence line, looking for places where curious deer may have tested it overnight.

The best part isn’t just knowing the gardens are protected—it’s seeing how these walks have become part of our family’s routine. One child throws the ball, another holds the leash, and little Violet makes sure there are plenty of hugs for our faithful companion along the way.

Sometimes the biggest harvest isn’t found in the garden at all. It’s found in the simple moments spent together, protecting what we’ve worked so hard to grow. 🌱❤️🐕🚜

Does your dog have an important job around your farm or garden? We’d love to hear about it in the comments! 🐾

🎉 It’s my birthday and Rose’s tomorrow, and there’s no place we’d rather celebrate than at the DeWitt Farmers Market! 🌸💐

Come say hello today from 4:00–7:00 PM! We’ll have fresh-cut flower bouquets, locally grown produce, and plenty of smiles waiting for you.

If you’ve been thinking about stopping by, today is the perfect excuse. 😊 Wishing me a happy birthday is optional… but taking home flowers definitely isn’t! 🌻🌼

A special thank you to Terry for snapping today’s photo. I love that our kids are always part of this farming adventure. ❤️

We can’t wait to see you this evening! 🌿🌻🎂🚜

Sometimes the best surprises are hiding in the garden. 💛🌱

Terry came running over with these bright yellow pattypan squash, and I had to do a double take. I didn’t even know we had planted them!

Apparently, Dad must have had a few seeds tucked into a mislabeled bag, because this was a complete surprise to Mom. Terry was pretty proud to be the one to discover them, and I was just as excited knowing we’d have another fresh vegetable to take to Tuesday’s Farmers Market.

Meanwhile, Violet was happily inspecting every squash she could find, making sure none were left behind.

Farming always has a way of keeping us on our toes. Even after months of planting, we can still stumble across a surprise harvest.

Have you ever grown something by accident or discovered a surprise in your garden? We’d love to hear your story! 🌱💛
