September ❤️
A growing pumpkin patch, goldfinches in the garden, seeds saved for spring, and a first look at my illustrated children’s book.

A journal of plants, kitchens, seasonal making, and the quieter rituals that gather a home — kept from a small farm in middle Tennessee.
A colorful pumpkin harvest, garlic planting, a birding weekend in Hot Springs, and the last tomatoes from the garden.
Letters from the farm
Garden notes, stories from Frémont Farm, and news about my children’s book. I’d love to keep in touch.
A growing pumpkin patch, goldfinches in the garden, seeds saved for spring, and a first look at my illustrated children’s book.
Tomatoes on the counter, watermelon in the refrigerator, armfuls of flowers, and pumpkin vines reaching toward fall.
East- and west-facing windows, a fresh collection of houseplants, and the slow work of learning what thrives where.
A windowless bathroom, a fluorescent shelf, and the quiet pleasure of plants where you least expect them.
A Friday at the farm shop, a basket of winter goodies, and a simple wreath of dried flowers worth gathering friends for.
A grandmotherly neighbor, hot cocoa on the kitchen table, and a quiet December afternoon making nature-inspired ornaments.
By the writer
I write from a small 46-acre farm in middle Tennessee, where I keep a garden, raise a family, and notice the seasons one window at a time. The journal is the slow record of all of it.
