Only 1 week away!

Farmers Market Season starts in just one short week!
Next Thursday from 3-630pm, me and all the rest of the market vendors will be at the Libby Chamber parking lot with booths full of locally grown, raised, and made food and goods.
Then on Saturday, May 4th, hop over to Kalispell to find me amongst the best of the Flathead Valley and beyond!

Come by to pick up some epic dried flowers (while we wait for the fresh ones to arrive, April showers bring May flowers right?), microgreens to get you ready for the abundance of summer produce, and learn all about the on-farm classes coming up this season.

And, if you want a reason to get out and see all the native May flowers that spring brings don't forget to check out both the Hike on May 12th, led by yours truly, and the 4 part class in Troy (all the details and sign up links below)!

So dust off those reusable market bags, get your comfy kicks ready, and boogie on down to the markets next week!

It's almost planting time! Just gotta wait until the 18F nights end cause that cold seeps into even the best built high tunnel

​And just while everything else slowly greens up and begins growing, the Daffodils thumb their noses at the cold

As you see these little beauties pop up this spring, don't get angry, get hungry! To learn how Dandelions are food, medicine, and more sign up below for the Everything Dandelion! Class on May 19th at the farm

Why could I be saving Dandelion stems? 

You'll find out at the Everything Dandelion! Class.  (hint: it has nothing to do with food or medicine, you won't believe how helpful, useful, and amazing these plants are!)

All the Happenings

Native Spring Wildflowers: Troy, MT: Monday Evenings, April 29 - May 20
Learn both the common and lesser known spring wildplants that live in NW MT. One indoor class will cover the basics of plant id. Three classes will be outdoors: Callahan Creek, Old Hwy 2, and Alvord Lake. We'll focus on how to identify plants at all growth stages and not just when flowering.

Farmers Market at Libby Opening Day: Libby, MT: Thursday, May 2nd

Kalispell Farmers Market Opening Day: Kalispell, MT: Saturday, May 4th

Kootenai Country Wildflower ID Hike: Old Hwy 2 Trail: May 12th
Join us for a scenic hike along Old Highway 2 trail to Shannon lake. Our route features fantastic views of Kootenai Falls and the river valley. We'll stop to identify plants and wildflowers along the way, including several wildflower varieties near Shannon Lake that are harder to find without a steeper or longer hike. There is a short scramble up to the lake, but the trail is otherwise gradual and wide, with a few interpretive displays about the history of the old road and area. Spring is the best and most bountiful wildflower time along this accessible and enjoyable trail. We'' end early enough for participants to explore the adjacent Kootenai Falls and Swinging Bridge afterward if they want to.
