Come stop by and smell the flowers🌸 I just went into Packrats Paradise Cobden Village Shops & Galleries and dropped off fresh Lavender and Zinnias. The Lavender was cut locally at the Lavender farm by my littlest loves assisting me. The Zinnias were a surprise by my daughter Hadley. She found my seed collection and went out and sowed the seeds herself. She even marked them in our flower bed. They are so beautiful! She hand picked the ones in the bottles to share with you all. We hope you enjoy!🫶🏻❤️

If you are local or in town for a few days and missed out on a plant, don’t hesitate to message. *Typically* Sarah and I have an endless amount of plants growing that we can make sure you are able to leave with what you were day dreaming of. ❤️ P.S. we have SoOo many of plants but don’t ask how many. It’s a slope from once you start to can’t stop. ✨We should start putting disclaimers of once you start you won’t want to stop 🪴😂

I had a fun afternoon restocking the shop today. It was fun chatting with everyone that came in today. I talked with visitors from Carbondale, Northern Illinois and our hometown Cobden. Thank you all for shopping small and local. It means so much to my family and our community🫶🏻
