The last six months have been quite the ride and more change is on the horizon as we head into a new season of life. Let’s back up a few months to when we made the decision to transition the brand and my life’s work into something new after five years of retail both online + in person. We are in the midst of starting a family and with busy farming schedules and a new blessing on the way, the grind of in person retail had taken it’s toll, not to mention the current state of the economy. Last November I started working on a new brand concept and put the pieces in motion to get things started while watching Nash & Ivy come to an end after the holiday season.

It has been a very full summer over here in our little corner of the world. I apologize for my absence in this space the last few months. It feels as though summer has just flown by and autumn is right around the corner, but I am back and ready to share all about what I have been up to, loving, and a few projects on the horizon.

April is here and spring is finally in full swing. The sunshine is back and provides the all consuming feeling of spending as much time outside as possible. For me April is all about preparation. Preparing our home for the new season ahead. Preparing for long hours during planting season. Preparing for the upcoming busy summer season at the shop. I’ve always been a planner. A good ole to-do list is how I get through the week but sometimes I find myself needing to take a little break from the to-do list, slow down, and do things that bring joy + relaxation.

This week has been quite full with meetings, paperwork, and endless calls. Within all the chaos has been sweet new beginnings to things in the works that I can’t wait to share more on. The constant grind is something I am slowly stepping away from to create more calmness and am going to continue this focus in the coming months.

I’ve been a bit absent on the blog these past couple of months as life has taken ahold of both my time and heart.
