Good morning, friends! Join me as I open up our cozy farm stand, a morning routine that has become a cherished part of my day. Each morning, I set up the sidewalls, arrange beautiful hosta plants, sweet potato vines, and willow tree starts, and ensure our lovely flowers are well-watered and fresh. I also restock our popular items like honey, homemade jams and jellies, medium rare chocolate chip cookies, and our new Berry Bliss tea blend. Every day, I bake something special in small batches, like today’s blueberry coffee cake, which adds a delicious touch to our offerings. After retiring from a corporate career, I’ve found immense joy in creating and sharing these seasonal, handmade products. It’s all about doing what I love and embracing the simple pleasures. Even though the earnings might be modest, the happiness it brings to me and my customers is priceless.

When you’ve been working for so long, you need to stay busy. The joy it brings can’t be measured by how much money you make.

@smas3256 3 месяца назад

Your stand is inviting. Great varieties for body, soul. People will want to buy and taste new things, like me. We are over 700 miles away, but not in spirit.

@carolynsinyard5215 3 месяца назад

I got one of the Blueberry Buckles last Friday! It was delicious! I was on my way to my sister's home, so I shared it with everyone over there. It was a hit! Your stand is precious!

@angelacurrier3583 3 месяца назад

I just love the farm stand! It’s just so beautiful! I hope you will share your chocolate chip cookie recipe, maybe in a video, that would be awesome!

Rachael, I love, love, love what you're doing at your farmstand! It's truly an inspiration to see you trying new ways and ideas all the time. Your goodies look scrumptious, along with your enchanting floral arrangements. And getting up in the morning and doing your thing is way better than driving to work. Right?,.lol 🎉 Peace and Serenity to you.

Hi,I am going to my local Amish store today,and the vegetable stand. I'm so excited. Some pasta and soup bases. Maybe a vegetable soup or shut up and eat it.!! I don't know what they have ready. Wisconsin weather has finally changed,no rain,humility,thank goodness,no air conditioning!!😃 I watched someone make whipped honey!

@annmarie3520 3 месяца назад

@Midnight_Undetermined 3 месяца назад

I wish we had more stands like this here! Before I moved, you could barely drive 3 miles without seeing one. We could come home with dinner. Plus, the addition of venmo is such a nice touch. 💜

@jamesbrown8718 3 месяца назад

You are such a blessing Rachel, I so wish I lived closer to you so I could visit your farmstead. I support our local farm stand here in our little town. They have everything seasonal as well as you. Like it’s corn and bean season, tomatoes, zucchini, squash and all the things. Just seeing the joy and love you put into your cooking, and the stories you share really touches my heart. Love and blessing from Tennessee

@kathyv3909 3 месяца назад

I do wish I was close by. I'd definitely stop by and pick up some tea, cookies, syrup, and honey...at least. Your community is so very lucky to have you as a resource.

@SalLeeHolland 2 месяца назад

I know how hard it is to retire. I was at my job 49 1/2 years! I wanted to reach 50, but my knee gave out and need a knee replacement. By the time I could go back I said, it's time to retire. Being happy is what it's all about. I love getting flowers from farm stands. You know they love them and it makes me happy seeing all the beautiful colors, and love that they put into what they do in their gardens. You have a beautiful variety of things to have on your farm stand, and it's cute too 💐🌼🏵🌻🌺🐝 Love and congrats., from Western, N.Y.

So fun! All I have in my farm stand is eggs...🤷 But it definitely fills a need and I feel like locals r seeing the difference between farm fresh pasture raised eggs and I sell more and more each week. I love the process!

My daughter gave me some loose leaf tea for Mother’s Day and I have been infusing it overnight in the fridge and drinking it cold. My favorite is the “blueberry jam” flavor. So good!

As I watch this a Want list pops into my head. Simple clip board with pen. Put all the wants into a cup and draw one out. Every other day ..every day if you want. That gives you ideas of what will help keep customers coming back.

@juliannahs-joy 3 месяца назад

Everything looks beautiful and delicious Rachel. I am busy canning tart and dark sweet cherry jams and Black Forest Preserves. I canned 🍒Cherry and Blueberry 🫐 pie filling yesterday. It keeps you busy canning seasonal items.

We would use Willow branches to help support and strengthen the banks of the river that ran through our farm . We had approx 1 km of river that ran through , my dad figured that over the years the river eroded 1-2 acres .

We picked 47 pounds of blueberries yesterday so I need to start making all things blueberry. Love seasonal eating and preserving. Last year I really learned that I love to just make the pies and then freeze them instead of the pie filling so def some pies. Peaches aren't quite ready.

@zathras2010 3 месяца назад

Would love a dedicated video sometime on how you manage the farm stand? Like the profit and loss, what products sold the best and least favorable products. I want to start doing cottage bakery/canning over here in WI and ik the laws different but would love some ideas.

Oh goodness I'm not " managing it" like one should if running a business
