🍂 Cozy candles, beautiful blooms & all the fall feels! 🕯️💐

If you haven’t stopped into Concord Hill Soap & Candle in Chatham yet, you’re missing out on a little slice of heaven! From their amazing candles and soaps to all the charming goodies inside, it’s the perfect place to treat yourself (or get a head start on holiday shopping 😉).

And while you’re there… don’t forget the FLOWERS! 🌸

We just dropped off fresh, locally grown & spray free dahlia bpuquets, and this will likely be your LAST weekend to grab them this season! 🥹

With frost in the forecast, our beautiful dahlias are getting ready to take their final bow. 🌸🍁

So stop in, smell the candles, browse the shop, and bring home one last burst of locally grown blooms before they’re gone!

Flower season may be slowly winding down, but it’s certainly putting on one spectacular finale! 🍂🌸🍁

Five fall-inspired centerpieces are headed out to an event today, and I’m absolutely loving these autumn colors! 😍

Fiery oranges, rich burgundies, soft pinks, and all the beautiful textures of fall!

What a beautiful way to celebrate the changing seasons through local flowers! 🍁💐🍁💐

Autumn in New York is exactly what I see in this bucket of strawflowers! Just whoa!

I am thrilled to have grown these this year and they are surprisingly frost tolerant. This was today’s harvest after a light frost Tuesday night!

🌸 Can you believe I just harvested buckets of these beauties?! Want some? 🌸

💐Stop by this weekend for a beautiful, freshly harvested bouquet before dahlia season calls it quits. We’ll also have fresh mixed eucalyptus bunches, straight from our fields! 🌿

📍 FRIDAY & SATURDAY (October 9 & 10) While bouquets last!

🌸 Guiding Green Thumbs Farmstand – 278 Rigor Hill Rd, Chatham . Open at 9 AM.

🕯️ Concord Hill Soap & Candle Flowers drop at 11 AM~ 54 Main Street, Chatham.

🍻 Saturday BONUS! Chatham Brewing is hosting Oktoberfest from 12–10 PM, right across the street from Concord Hill! Make a day of it: enjoy the festivities, shop Concord Hill’s amazing selection of hand-poured candles and handcrafted soaps among other businesses on Main Street and take home some gorgeous flowers while the season lasts!

Never bought our flowers before? Come see what all the fuss is about. Worst case, you leave with a bouquet. Best case, you become the person who casually has locally grown gorgeous flowers on their table. 💕

🌸 Locally grown. Spray-free. Freshly harvested.

Fall at the farm is soooooo pretty! I’m so happy to have had a late flush of these summer beauties. Tonight and tomorrow night temps are in the mid 30’s… this could very well be it for them as they are sensitive to cold but wow, what a show!

🍂 The Grapevine Witch’s Hat Workshop is officially in the books!

A huge thank-you to everyone who came out and created with us today—even if you didn’t make it into the photos! 🤎

It was so much fun watching everyone start with the same materials and weave them into completely different, one-of-a-kind witch’s hats. This class was a little more challenging than some, starting with grapevines freshly pulled from our farm, but everyone jumped right in and conquered! Thanks for a great afternoon!

And we’re not done yet…

🥖 The Sourdough Workshop is tomorrow!
See you soon!

We made the COVER, whaaaaaat?!

Yep! Our family — and our big red barn — are on the October cover of The Hudson Connection magazine! The Hudson Connection is a local community based magazine that features local families and curated local content.

When we started Guiding Green Thumbs, the drive was never just about growing flowers. It was about sharing my love of flowers, finding new plants, learning, sharing real life laughs and of course growing with organic methods.

So seeing the words “Cultivating Community” across this cover feels especially meaningful.

We can clean up pretty well when someone tells us there’s a camera coming too! Don’t ya think? 😉

A huge thank you to The Hudson Connection for sharing our story, to Photo-Art by Ken Bovat for the amazing photo shoot and to every single person who has visited the farmstand, taken a workshop, bought a bouquet, picked flowers, supported us through the hard seasons, or simply cheered us on.

You are the community we’re cultivating. 🌱

Now excuse me while I casually leave approximately 47 copies of this magazine in strategic locations around my house! 😂

For those of you that aren’t local and wish to read, the online version up shortly! I’ll let you know when and link it so you can access from my website!

We are officially sold out of seats for our Sourdough Workshop on Sunday! Thank you to everyone who has shared and registered for our events so far! We truly appreciate the support and can’t wait to see you this season!

Swing by and grab your favorite before they’re gone!
