Farm Stand on Littlerock Rd
We launched the farm stand associated with the flower farm in the summer of 2023 with many stunningly beautiful blooms. This area of Tumwater, Washington is booming as population in the area increase exponentially. New apartment and condo complexes have arrived. Many of the people coming here enjoy our little slice of neighborhood due to the long, pleasant sidewalk that wanders around Littlerock Rd SW by Tumwater Middle School, Odegard Rd, down to Tumwater Animal Hospital and across the walkway near the Toyota dealership. Its a delight, smooth walk for families and dogs alike. Due to the split road, there are a line of pretty trees that separate north and south bound on Littlerock Rd. and many people walk to the school or over the bridge across I-5. It is in the middle of this that the farm stand is tucked in, about 5 feet down a gravel road (our driveway!).
This year has started well with a rich supply of daffodils. Following this the chickens waited for the warm sun to start showing up and laying their pretty eggs as they peck around the backyard and dust bathe in the chicken run. Not long after they begin laying the tulips finally announce the true spring. They peak in color and lengthen as the weather warms. If you know Tumwater or Olympia weather, you know that there is a great deal of regular rain and cool temperatures and then seemingly all of the sudden the tulips spring to life as the warmth pushes them open.
In this space, we put out a little sign and place the flowers up top and the chicken eggs in a cooler with a cold pack. There is a cash box and Venmo to make the transaction easy. However, my favorite part is the notepad. If you visit the farm stand, you can just turn in a notepad sheet to give us feedback but also to enter to win a bouquet! All confirmed emails will be entered in a monthly drawing from June to September 2024 for a free bouquet!
