My kitchen has smelled like elderberries and warm spices all morning, which can only mean one thing...it's time to start making Elderberry Syrup for Back-to-School. It's one of my favorite signs that summer is winding down.

One thing I love sharing is how much of our own honey goes into every bottle.

Each batch is sweetened with honey from our very own bees, and every 16-ounce bottle contains over one-third cup of that honey—never refined sugar, corn syrup, or artificial sweeteners.

That honey doesn't just add sweetness. It brings together the richness of our bees' work with elderberries, ginger, Ceylon cinnamon, rose hips, and a handful of other botanicals into a syrup that's meant to become part of your family's seasonal rhythm.

We've been getting requests for our Elderberry Syrup, and I'm happy to say our first batch for Back-to-School will be heading to Come To The Table tomorrow morning. 🍯🐝🌿

//SOLD OUT//

A lot of people seem to be feeling a little under the weather right now, so I decided to make a fresh batch of our elderberry syrup to bring to tomorrow’s Mother’s Day Pop-up at Come To The Table . 🌿🍯

This isn’t just elderberry syrup — each small batch also includes warming herbs and spices like ginger, cinnamon, echinacea, turmeric, and pepper for additional support… along with a full cup of honey from our own bees. 🐝

Slowly simmered, small batch, and made with care here at Bloom & Buzz Farmstead.

I’ll have a limited number of bottles available tomorrow if anyone has been hoping to grab one. 🤍

There are moments when you create something and then pray it finds the right hands… 🌸📖

I received a message recently from someone who picked up one of the Blind Date with a Book — Devotional Edition bundles. She had gifted it… and shared that the devotional inside had such a meaningful impact on that person that she came back to order more.

That stayed with me.

When I was putting them together, it mattered deeply that these particular devotionals would end up with the right person — that it wouldn’t just be a surprise, but something that met them exactly where they are.

To hear that it did… it feels like a quiet little confirmation that it’s all unfolding just as it should. 🤍

If you’ve been feeling drawn to something like this — a slower moment, a gentle place to land — I’ll be putting a few more together soon. 🌿

I’m not entirely sure what went on out in the garden last night, but I do know what the rest of my day looks like now.

Snapping beans.
Washing squash.
Figuring out who needs cucumbers.
And apparently making green beans for dinner.

🍓🍋✨ Coming Monday ✨🍋🍓

A few new jars are making their way to the shelf from Bloom & Buzz Farmstead…

• Strawberry Jam
• Strawberry Jalapeño Jam
• Meyer Lemon Marmalade

Bright, fresh, and made in small batches — each one capturing a little moment of the season.

The strawberry jam is simple and sweet, the strawberry jalapeño brings just the right touch of warmth, and the Meyer lemon marmalade is golden, citrusy, and full of sunshine.

Perfect for biscuits, toast, or adding something special to the everyday.

Available Monday at Come To The Table 🌿

Looking for a meaningful Easter gift that feels a little like a surprise and a little like a hug? 🌸📖

Blind Date with a Book — Devotional Edition

Each one is beautifully wrapped so the devotional inside remains a surprise, but I will say this…
✨ it speaks to growth in hidden seasons
✨ to blooming right where you are
✨ and to the quiet ways God is always at work beneath the surface

Each bundle includes:
• a brand new devotional
• a sweet little Pocket Prayers book
• sticky tabs + a highlighter & pen
• a bookmark or two
• tea, chocolate, and a honey stick

Everything you need for a cozy, intentional moment.

These would be so lovely tucked into an Easter basket, gifted to a friend, or kept for yourself as a small act of care.

$55 each — only 3 available
Available now at Come To The Table 🤍

The garden confession: I was very late starting my seeds this year… as in, I hadn’t started them at all. 😅

So when I saw that Betsy at Grow & Bestow Flower House was having a plant sale, I knew it was perfect timing. I came home with some beautiful, healthy starters and spent the day getting them tucked into the garden beds.

Today’s work looked like tomatoes going in, peppers and eggplant finding their spots, cucumbers and squash settling into their beds, and a few companion flowers and herbs sprinkled throughout to keep the pollinators happy. The cattle panel arch is ready for vines to climb, and the garden is finally starting to feel alive again after winter.

There’s still plenty more planting to do, but it feels good to have our spring garden officially underway here at Bloom & Buzz Farmstead. 🌱🐝

Now we wait for sunshine, a little rain, and a whole lot of growing.

🌿 Hydroponic Salad System — Now Planted

We got our hydro system up and running yesterday, and it’s officially filled.

Because this system grows in circulating water (no soil), plant placement matters. Smaller, faster greens go where they won’t be shaded. Larger heads and strawberries are spaced where they’ll have room to widen and trail.

Here’s what we installed:
• Arugula
• Mizuna
• Equinox Spinach
• Black Summer Pac Choi*
• Red Pac Choi*

*Pac choi and bok choy are actually the same species — just different varieties. Ours include a dark green summer-tolerant type and a red-leaf version for color in our salad bowls.

• Spring Mix
• Butterhead (Adriana)
• Romaine (Breen)
• Romaine (Blue Rock)
• Fronteras Strawberries

We placed it under sailcloth to soften our Texas heat and protect tender greens as we move toward spring.

What I love most about hydro is this:
Clean water + balanced nutrients + consistent light = rapid, steady growth. No weeds. Minimal pest pressure. Harvests just steps from the kitchen.

This is our way of keeping salads truly seasonal and truly fresh.

We’ll keep you posted as it fills in. 🌱
