Just because it’s 25 degrees out doesn’t mean there aren’t things growing on a flower farm!! I wanted to share some behind the scenes of what I’ve been working on this winter. I have BIG plans for 2026 which means I have to grow a LOT more flowers to make this business successful. 

If you’re feeling a little cooped up and craving nature, here are a few gentle ways I like to reconnect this time of year.

All these wreaths and more will be available this Saturday the 20th at Mac Market in McMinnville

Shop small & shop local! Here’s a list of all my favorite gardening resources around town so you can find the perfect gift for your gardener this year.

A big expansion is in the works for Big Oak after receiving a $15,000 New Producer Grant from AgWest.

Whether you’ve been following along since the beginning or you’re brand new to Big Oak, I’d love to see you there.

No green thumb? No problem. Here’s how I started my garden from scratch and how you can start your own backyard garden with confidence.
