August.
We always get a little quiet on social media when the summer heat starts peaking between late July and September. It’s the only time the farm really rests for us.
A few heat-loving stragglers hold on for dear life (or, in the case of these , absolutely thrive), but after a couple of years trying to power through, we no longer try to convince things to bloom through the intense heat.
Instead we start thinking about what’s next - planning for winter, prepping to put tulips into the cooler, and the seeming unending task of mowing the grass.
This summer, we also taught some gardening, growing, & flower classes with St. Tammany Parish Library and Habitat For Humanity St. Tammany West. We have so much respect for what these two organizations do in our community and love being a very small part of them. 💗
We hope everyone is staying cool. The goldenrod is towering up, just about ready to bloom, so fall can’t be too far off. 🤞🏻
