Wow, we are overjoyed with the support we have received from the community! We have three upcoming workshops in the month of April and possibly more on the way. The first is with the Vancouver Housing Authority- so these tickets will not be available to the public. Secondly, we will be at The Lacamas Lake […]
Spring is Here!
It’s the first day of Spring and tonight you will see the last super moon of 2019 to boot! What are you doing to celebrate? Our month-long absence has not been in vain- we have been working hard to prepare the succulents for their Spring move back to the greenhouse and outdoors. It is almost […]
Light it Up, up, up!
I’m on FIRE!! Is anyone familiar with that song by Fallout Boy? It’s an oldie but somehow stuck in my head when I started this blog post. 🙂 Well, we have not actually set anything on fire, but it is definitely lit up in the garage. The plants are growing substantially. It is amazing with […]
The Great Organization of 2019
As promised, more so to myself than any particular person, here is an update on our growing situation in the garage and house for this 3rd week of 2019. We have officially moved 95% of our succulents inside the house due to cold weather conditions. About 75% of these reside in the garage and the […]
Product Updates for 2019
With the new year rang in, we are rolling out new merchandise! We hear you that keeping succulents alive is tough work (see our previous blog posts for examples of our struggles, they are very real) so in response, we are adding non-living merchandise crafted and sourced by yours truly. We will continue to grow and […]
The Indoor Re-Potting Continues
This process is moving slowly and relatively purposefully– We are in no particular rush to disturb the succulents cause we have no intended purpose with them currently. (Announcement on Patreon Jan 1) Around Christmas, we were graced with slightly warmer temperatures. I spent a couple afternoons working in the garage replanting succulents and setting up […]
The 2018 Freeze!
Well, it happened, the thing we feared most of the impending winter season…. we lost some succulents, actually, we lost quite a few succulents from our outdoor greenhouse The hardest hit crop was our lucky Jade (Crassula ovata) — not so lucky, eh? I had *luckily* brought a few small cuttings inside the garage; the […]
First Market and Colder Temperatures
We had a blast at our first Vancouver Night Market, the location of our booth placed us right next to the entertainment. The balloon man was fantastic, his wonderful sense of humor was appropriate for everyone and his balloon modeling skills are top notch. The back end of the night we were serenaded with beautiful guitar […]
Greenhouse Filled Up!
Yup, that’s right, we have already filled up the new greenhouse… The rain has been looming over us this past week, so we finally bit the grit and moved all the succulents under cover. With that, we are forced to think about what it means once we acquire more plant inventory… Luckily there is still […]
