Mom/Mama/Momma/Mum/Mommy/Mother
No matter what you call the mother figure in your life, there is no denying that mothers are pretty amazing. The years of growing, feeding, wiping, holding, snuggling, kissing, changing, fretting over, guiding, cleaning up after and most importantly loving you during your lifetime truly deserve some recognition.
But, here’s a secret I’m going to share with you:
She doesn’t want chocolate.
Or wine. Or a dozen roses. Or a new bathrobe.
She wants to be recognized more than one day out of the year for all her devotion, sacrifice (physical, spiritual, psychological, etc.) and giving. She wants to know you think about her often and truly understand her wishes and dreams. And maybe to vacuum, pick up after yourself and make dinner once in a while. (We’re pretty simple, really.)
Would you like ideas? Here are some ways to surprise her with things and experiences that are different and more impactful, while also supporting our farm!
Local Flower CSA (You can find ours here) - Why give one bunch of flowers that is shipped from South America when there are dozens of local farms that offer week after week of local blooms?
Mindful Folk Farm Gift Certificate - This is good for anything in our online store as well as at Farmer’s Market, our farm stand, our flower CSA, or at any fiber festival I attend!
Mindful Maine Retreat - How about a long weekend of crafting, friendship and relaxation surrounded by like minded people and new friends?
A La Carte Bouquet - One stunning large or small bouquet filled with our best seasonal blooms! Delivery available!
Yarn! - Do you have a knitter in your life? Yarn is ALWAYS a good idea!
Private Workshop - Do they love flowers? Reach out to organize a special afternoon on the farm with mom and a couple of their friends playing with flowers, cuddling with animals and relaxing!
