📆 Coming up next on our Calendar...

David will be speaking to the Orchid Society of Kansas City this Sunday at 3pm!!
He has chosen an Orchid Family that he is very fond of and has grown for several years, the Catasetum Alliance. Consisting of Catasetums, Cycnoches, Mormodes, and Clowesia; he will touch on cultural care, flower patterns, and the dormancy process. This will be a great educational event and there will also be plants available for sale!!!

🧡 It's October 1st friends, are you 'Chilling' your Orchids??
Here in the Midwest, Fall is the perfect time to achieve this process. Phalaenopsis (Moth Orchid) need a 15-20° change in temperature 🌡 from night to day consistently for 3-4 weeks to trigger a new (primary) flower spike.
Placing the plant on your porch (in the shade), in a spare bedroom with a window open, or somewhere the Orchid feels like it needs a blanket in the evenings-are all good options to 'chill' it. Don't freeze it or really let it go below 45-50°.
This will slighty stress the plant, initiate a new spike at the bottom of the Orchid, and you will have flowers by Valentines Day!!

🤎 More growing guides & cultural information can be found online on our website!

🧡 And if you succeed, your Orchid will look like this one 👇

👏 Clap for the Crew 👏

A few weeks ago we did a 'customer appreciation' post and shared some photos of people with their new plants! This week, let's take a look at the people behind the farmers market tables!
A HUGE THANKS to 'Our Crew' for surviving-I mean enjoying, yet another market season 😊
Our booths are often filled with family members, long time friends, and people that have endured the market grind year after year. Reflecting on this past season, it was a WILD one. Taking on a third market location, transitioning to a brand new Overland Park Market spot mid-season, all while continuing to grow high quality plants for you all!
Those 4am wake up calls every single weekend for the past 6 months is a reflection of dedication, a deep passion for plants, and true grit.

THANK YOU for shopping local friends and thank you to our hardworking crew!!

Come see us at the Markets as we only have a couple weeks left! This Saturday find us at 👇
📍Overland Park Farmers Market ⏰️ 7:30-1pm
📍Lee's Summit Farmers Market ⏰️ 8-12pm
(NO City Market this weekend)
