DMV Plant Enablers - Merrifield

Can you see the French influence in the design of Merrifield?

Anthruiums just fascinate me :D

this philodendron corner nearly stole my credit card

Gotta hit ‘dem angles

After Merrifield, we hopped over to a nearby @inbloom_alx family farm filled with heritage sheep, guinea hen, chickens and llamas! We learned about the process it takes to take that wooly sheep and turn it into a beautiful rug (which I was too amazed by to snap a picture of, oops).

baaa-aaaa baaa-aaaa baaa-aaaa

Of course we got our hands in some dirt and pulled out yukon gold potatoes

I love a dusty carpentry space. My dad’s been a carpenter his whole life and the smell of sawdust is so nostalgic.

The chickens were penned up so they didn’t turn into hawkbait, or eat all the hostas

There is something refreshing and nourishing about getting out of the bustling city
