🎃🍂 TICKETS ARE LIVE! 🍂🎃

We’re SO excited to finally share this with you!

Our Second Annual Pumpkin Workshop is back — and this year, it’s a true collaboration between Birch & Bloom Flower Farm + Blossom Acres Flower Farm! 🌸🌾

Last year, we had so much fun creating with you, and you sold out the workshop faster than we ever expected. So this year, we’re opening up TWO dates so even more of our flower-loving customers can join us!

This is a special evening bringing both of our flower farms and our customers together for a cozy night of flowers, pumpkins, good food, drinks, and a whole lot of fall magic. 🍂

You’ll create your very own fresh-flower arrangement inside a real pumpkin while enjoying:

🌸 Fresh flowers from our two flower farms
🎃 A real pumpkin to design with
🌿 All the tools + step-by-step guidance you need
🧀 A beautiful charcuterie graze table
🍹 Mobile bar service with cocktails & mocktails
🍂 An absolutely beautiful autumn setting at Blossom Acres

You just bring yourself, your love for fall, and a friend or two. We’ll take care of the rest!

📍 Blossom Acres Flower Farm
434 Macey Lake Rd
Metamora, IL

✨ A little note about tickets:
The workshop will be held at the beautiful Blossom Acres location, and because they’re hosting us at their workshop space, all tickets will be purchased through the Blossom Acres website at blossomacres.com.

Whether you’re a Birch & Bloom customer, a Blossom Acres customer, or you’re simply a flower friend who wants to spend an evening with us — you’re invited! We love the idea of bringing our two flower-farm communities together for this special fall tradition. 🤎

And don’t let Metamora scare you away — it’s an easy 45-minute drive, and the setting is absolutely worth it!

🍂🌼 Something REALLY fun is coming this fall… 🌼🍂

If you followed along last year, you may remember our Pumpkins & Petals workshop with our friends at Blossom Acres at their beautiful flower farm in Germantown Hills—an easy drive from Hudson!

Well… WE’RE DOING IT AGAIN! 🙌

Last year was our very first Pumpkins & Petals, and apparently we underestimated how badly you all wanted to put flowers in pumpkins. 😂 We sold out so quickly that this year, we’re adding a second workshop date so more of you can join us!

And if you missed out last year, let me tell you… you’re going to want to keep an eye on this one. 👀

Picture this:

🎃 A REAL pumpkin
🌼 A whole lot of gorgeous fall flowers
🪄 A little floral design magic
🍂 A beautiful fall afternoon
🤎 And spending it with some really fun people

We’ll teach you how to create one of our show-stopping floral designs right inside a real pumpkin—and yes, you get to take your masterpiece home!

🎟️ Tickets go LIVE September 4! 🚨

This year’s dates are:

🍁October 4 at 4:00 PM
🍁October 11 at 4:00 PM

So if you’ve been waiting for your chance to join us, September 4 is your day. Set the alarm, tell your flower-loving friend, and get ready! ⏰🌼

We’ll be sharing more details and sneak peeks between now and then, so keep following along and checking our page.

We can’t wait to spend a beautiful fall afternoon creating something with you! 🍂🌼🎃

Who’s already thinking, “Yep. I need to do this”? 👀

🌿 Farmer Friday: What’s blooming this week? 🌿

Well… that’s a bit of a loaded question.

We’ve had so much rain lately that our flowers have decided to take one last little end-of-summer getaway. They’re all packed up with buds and nowhere to go. 😂

So today’s flower tour is brought to you by buds, leaves, and blind optimism. 🌿

See the photos and captions and you will get the idea. 😅

The good news? There are SO many buds out there. They’re just taking their sweet time this week.

After all the rain and wind we’ve had, I’m honestly pretty impressed they’re still standing. The flowers have their own timeline, and while it’s not always the timeline I’d choose, they’re going to reward us with a whole lot of blooms very soon.

This is our third growing season, and we’ve never had quite this much green and quite so few flowers at this point in the season. 😬So if you’re waiting on a Birch & Bloom bouquet, we promise we haven’t forgotten you! The flowers are coming—they’re just apparently operating on their own schedule. We’ll be cutting as soon as they’re ready, and we’re hoping all these buds are about to turn into a whole lot of blooms. 🌸 Thank you for hanging in there with us!

So for this week’s Farmer Friday:

What’s one flower you’re hoping to see in a Birch & Bloom bouquet this season? 🌼

I’m taking notes! 😉

🌿 Farmer Friday!

I thought it would be fun to start something new.

Have you ever wondered what goes into growing cut flowers? How often do I water? What my favorite flower is? Why some flowers bloom and others don’t? What are my favorite gardening tools?

Ask me anything!

I’ll answer some of your questions!

🌸 Well… hi! 👋

I realized we’ve gained quite a few new faces around here, and after accidentally ghosting Facebook for a while (turns out growing flowers is a little more time-consuming than posting about growing them 😅), I figured it was finally time to introduce myself.

I’m Kate, and together with my husband and our four kids, we’re the family behind Birch & Bloom Flower Farm. I just happen to be the one who spends most of her days in dirt and talking to the flowers and bees.

On any given day you’ll find me planting, weeding, harvesting, replanting, arranging bouquets, washing buckets, checking the weather like somehow that’ll change the forecast, replanting again, and convincing myself that I definitely don’t need to buy more flower seeds. (Spoiler: I usually lose that argument.)

My husband, Paul, and I are raising four amazing kids, and somewhere in the middle of the beautiful “Cope chaos” (as I like to lovingly refer to it) of family life, we decided to chase a dream and start a flower farm.

Some days this dream is really hard. But every time I hand someone a bouquet that’s about to celebrate a birthday, brighten a kitchen table, welcome a new baby, or honor someone they love, I’m reminded exactly why we started

I won’t pretend I wake up every morning excited to pull weeds (because… absolutely not 😅), but I do love a challenge. And I’ve found there’s something incredibly grounding about getting your hands in the dirt. It reminds me to slow down, breathe, and trust that growth usually happens a little at a time.

People often ask where the name Birch & Bloom came from. The “birch” is a nod to Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, a place that has always felt like home to my heart and where some of my favorite memories are made. After losing my father-in-law, the name took on an even deeper meaning. Birch trees are known for resilience and new beginnings, and that felt like the perfect symbol for this new chapter our family was stepping into.

To me, Birch & Bloom has never been just about growing flowers. It’s about creating beauty, celebrating life’s happiest moments, bringing comfort during the hardest ones, and sharing a little joy with our community.

If you’ve bought a bouquet, signed up for a subscription, shared one of our posts, recommended us to a friend, or simply followed along and cheered us on—thank you. Every order supports our family’s dream, and every bit of encouragement means more than you know.

I’m so grateful you’re here, and I can’t wait to keep growing right alongside this wonderful community.

Did you know Birch & Bloom creates custom floral arrangements for life’s special moments?

This week, we had the privilege of creating these two arrangements for a celebration of life. It is always an honor to be trusted with flowers that help tell someone’s story and bring a little beauty during a meaningful time. 🤍

While many people know us for our fresh bouquet subscriptions, we also create arrangements for celebrations of life, weddings, showers, parties, gifts, and other special occasions.

If you have an event coming up, we’d love to create something beautiful just for you. 🌸

Well… this is awkward. 👀

Remember us? 😂

I know it’s been a hot minute since we’ve posted. We haven’t disappeared—we’ve just been buried (sometimes literally) in flowers, weeds, buckets, early mornings, and all the behind-the-scenes chaos that comes with flower farming.

Turns out growing flowers is a little more time-consuming than posting about growing flowers. 🌸😅

But we’re still here… and we’re excited because bouquet subscriptions officially begin this week! 💐🎉

We can’t wait to start filling buckets, wrapping bouquets, and getting these beauties into your hands. Thank you for your patience, your support, and for sticking with us while we’ve been in the flower trenches.

Here’s a little sneak peek at what’s headed out the door this week. We still have a couple of subscription spots available if you’ve been thinking about treating yourself (or someone else!) to fresh, locally grown flowers throughout the season.

We’re so excited to finally share these blooms with all of you! 🤍

This season has been a reminder that farming always keeps you humble.

While all this rain has helped some things grow, it’s also caused some losses—especially among our dahlias, eucalyptus, scabiosa, and lisianthus. It’s never fun to see months of planning and care washed away, but that’s part of growing with nature.

Thankfully, we still have plenty of healthy plants growing, and we’re excited about what’s ahead. Every season brings challenges, but it also brings new opportunities and a lot to be thankful for.

We’re not giving up we’re just putting on our boots and will keep going. 🌱💛

Fun fact: we only have one creek. This is how much water we had when we lost a lot of our crop! Our kids thought the double creek was great though!
