"April showers bring May flowers” is an old saying, but around here, May flowers also bring tick season.
Our Bug & Tick Spray has become part of the daily routine on the farm once the grass starts coming in, especially during harvest, planting, and market prep.
Tick-borne illnesses have increased significantly across the Northeast over the last two decades, which is why we wanted to make something we actually feel good about using every day.
Made on our saltwater farm in coastal Maine with thoughtfully chosen ingredients and designed for long days outside.
Available online and at our weekend markets.

Tulips are moving fast, the ranunculus are starting to open, and it’s officially “pants tucked in socks” season in coastal Maine.

After a long winter, spring asks a little more from our bodies again.
Earlier mornings. Dirty hands. More time outside. More movement. More light.
We put together this Spring Reset Kit with a few things we’ve been reaching for ourselves on the farm lately: herbal tea, raw Maine wildflower honey, tulsi tincture, and nourishing body butter for dry spring skin.
Nothing fancy. Just simple daily rituals to help ease back into the season ahead.
You can find the Spring Reset Kit online or at the farmstand and weekend markets this spring.
How we prepare our field beds 🌱
Not every par of flower farming is glamorous, but this is the groundwork that makes a healthy and productive season possible.

A few scenes from around the farm this week 🌷
Tulips and daffodils are filling in strong , the greenhouse is full again, and everything is waking back up after the long winter. Every spring feels a little different, but there’s always that moment where the farm starts to come back to life again. Feels good to have dirty hands and flowers in the truck bed again.
Thanks for being here with us through another season.
Nothing like tulips riding in the back of a farm truck 🌷🛻
Freshly harvested and headed to our Cape Elizabeth farmstand and Saturday farmers markets this weekend in coastal Maine!
Emily and Annie planted these tulips last fall before the farm shut down for winter. Months later, they’re harvesting them by hand 🌷
This weekend, these spring tulips will make their way to the farm stand and farmers markets in coastal Maine.
