Running a small biz is a constant of ebbs and flows.
Some weeks are full of big ideas, exciting plans, and endless energy.
And some weeks are about showing up anyway.
Unlocking the door.
Restocking the shelves.
Answering the emails.
Paying the bills.
Sweeping the floor.
I think we celebrate the big wins a lot, but there’s something quietly admirable about just showing up, too.
The truth is that most small businesses aren't built in dramatic moments.
They're built in ordinary ones.
In the decision to keep going.
To keep caring.
To keep showing up for your community, your customers, and the work you've chosen to do.
This week, I'm grateful for everyone who walked through our door, shared one of our posts, chose local, or simply cheered us on.
Sometimes that's more than enough 🫶
ps.....here is a sneak peek of how our specialty retail shop started .... in a tiny little cedar farm stand at our old farm. every dream starts somewhere 🤎
