Good morning & happy Tuesday! ☀️
I just wanted to touch base with everyone because I know I haven’t been updating as much lately, and the farm stand hasn’t been running full force.
The truth is, I’ve been doing a LOT around the house, the garden, and behind the scenes. I’m trying to get some things taken care of before winter, and while a lot of what I’m doing will eventually benefit the farm stand, it has meant putting the stand on the back burner for a little bit.
When I started Food Coffee Freedom, I really started it as a hobby. I never expected it to grow the way it has. Somewhere along the way, that little hobby started turning into a much bigger hobby/business, and I realized I hadn’t exactly planned for that. 😂
So now I’m having to make some changes—and some of them are pretty big changes—to make everything run more smoothly when I do get back into full swing.
I absolutely LOVE doing the farm stand, and because I love it so much, I tend to make it a priority and let everything else wait. But eventually reality catches up with me and reminds me that the house, garden, winter preparations, and everything else still need my attention too.
So this little slowdown wasn’t really intentional. It has honestly been more of a “feel it out as I go” situation, and before I knew it, a few days had turned into me realizing I really needed to use this time to get some things finished.
But don’t worry—I am NOT abandoning the farm stand. ❤️ This is temporary, and I promise I’ll get back into the swing of things. I’m just trying to get everything set up in a way that makes this more manageable and allows things to run a whole lot smoother going forward.
Thank you all for being patient with me while I figure out how to grow something I never really expected to grow this much. It’s taking a little longer than I expected, but I think it’ll be worth it in the long run.
I just wanted to give y’all a little heads-up about what’s been going on behind the scenes. ❤️
