It’s SUNFLOWER SUNDAY…🌻🌻🌻🌻
My last succession of sunnies just popped open! Crazy how one day can make such a difference. 🤣
Thanks everyone for coming to market yesterday! We had another awesome turnout! We set our camera down this time to spend our time chatting with all of you! So enjoyable! ❤️
Have a great Sunday everyone! 🤗🌻🤗🌻🌈

It was a pleasure having the ladies from Brentford United Church of Christ out yesterday. They were able to pick a lot of beautiful flowers. 🌺 Thanks for coming and hope you enjoyed your visit to the flower farm. 🤗🌈🌸

🌸 Grateful for today! 🌸
What a week for Dorothy’s Gardens!

🌸 Monday…I enjoyed giving a tour to JoAnne and her family as they celebrated her 91st birthday. What a beautiful lady with lots of gusto! She loves gardening and flowers and was so knowledgeable…she even shared peony advice with me! Such an honor having her spend part of her birthday at the flower farm!

🌸 Tuesday… the hailstorm! ⛈️ A bit nervous that night but thankful the flowers made it through the storm with minimal cleanup. Very grateful I can continue with my season.

🌸 Thursday…I went to Brookings to celebrate my daughter Morgan’s 23rd birthday 🎂 While there, I was able to harvest blooms from my sister’s garden to take to market. Thank you, Sis, for sharing your gorgeous flowers with all of us up here in Aberdeen.

🌸 Saturday…Another fun market with Becky, Mary, and Kathy helping at the booth. We loved seeing the smiles and helping people pick out their flowers. I especially love watching the little ones get excited over all the blooms (better than candy)!

Whether you are 91 or just 6 months old, I find flowers bring on the smiles. 😊 😊 😊

Grateful for today and all of you! Have a restful and beautiful Sunday everyone!🤗💐🌈

Please share to help get the word out!

Every small business in Aberdeen has a story, and I want to tell it through photography!

I am starting a project called "Day in the Life: Aberdeen" to shine a light on the incredible people who build, create, and serve here every day!

I’m looking for local shops, makers, and small teams to feature. I’ll come hang out behind the scenes for a free candid photo session to capture real action shots, quick headshots, product photos, and authentic details.

The business will get a free gallery of photos to use however they want, and in return, I will get to feature their story as part of my local portfolio.

If there’s a local business or person in town whose hard work and heart inspire YOU, I’d love to know who they are! To nominate a business, please tag them in the comments below!
