beauty.



bridesmaid bouquet

 i have had the pleasure of creating flower arrangements for a few events recently...  

for benevolence farm event

 two wedding celebrations and a barn raising at benevolence farm!



table arrangements



how wonderful to be a part of this spreading of beauty.

tomatoes!

distracted by the flowers, i also must remember the vegetables have much beauty to offer as well.

beans!

onions!

joy.

perhaps the point of all of this is joy.

to feel joy within ourselves.

to inspire joy in others.

to share moments of joy together.

when friends gather to create art out of spring's abundant flowers, joy spreads.

 when goats benefit from the remnants of early spring vegetables, joy spreads.

 when family joins in the harvest, joy spreads.

when i realize the beauty and nourishment that have miraculously sprung forth, joy spreads.
