The Lilac Row

Yesterday we spent the afternoon celebrating and remembering a beautiful friend. She lived an incredible life filled with adventure, and was beaming every time I saw her. She was a kindred spirit who loved to grow and garden and we will miss her dearly!

If you’ve done any of these, I can help. Gardening 101 is all about learning how to garden HERE, in our soil, with our climate and all the weird little challenges that come with it.

Whether you are a total beginner or have been struggling through for a few years, you are welcome!

September 30 @ 5:30pm. Be there!

I’ve been refusing to acknowledge fall, but it appears to be happening with or without me.

So, we’ve got a couple of fall favourites coming up as we get ready to wrap up another season at the farm.

Gardening 101 is back September 30! Fall is actually a really great time to talk gardening. We’ll cover what you should be doing in the garden now, what can wait, and how to make life a whole lot easier come spring. I’ll be sharing what I’ve learned through my Master Gardener training, plus a whole lot of trial and error growing here at the farm.

Then on October 8, we’re bringing back our annual Pumpkin Centrepiece Workshop! This one sells out every year and has become our official season send-off. Flowers, pumpkins, c***r and one last evening at the farm before we tuck everything in for winter.

Gardening 101 | September 30 | $40/person
Pumpkin Centrepiece Workshop | October 8 | $90/person

Space is limited for both. Booking is now open at the link in our bio!

Fall cleanup season is coming in hot, and we’re looking for someone to join us for the next couple of months. Think cleaning up gardens, putting things to bed for winter, digging and processing a LOT of dahlias, and tackling the never ending list of random jobs that have collected over the season.

We’re looking for someone who is super organized, efficient and maybe just a little Type A. If you love a good list, naturally keep things on track and can work independently without needing a ton of direction, you might be exactly who we need. Gardening experience is definitely an asset since we won’t have a ton of time for training.

Fair warning, this is actual farm work and not frolicking through the flowers. You’ll need to be up for physical work and being outside in whatever fall weather Southern Alberta decides to throw at us.

If this sounds like your kind of thing, send us an email and tell us a little about yourself, your weekday availability and any relevant experience. And if you know someone who would be perfect, send this their way!

Dreams realized.

A little before and after. This arrangement was made to welcome a new little flower to The Lilac Row, my little niece!

A little closeup of one of my fav wedding colour palettes so far. Can’t wait to show more!
