Jen at Notes from the Heartland and I took a little road trip out to see Miss Effie on Sunday! It was her birthday and she threw herself a shin-dig. Complete with homemade cake and ice cream (that was all it took to snag me).
PSA: If you are local, from Iowa or driving through Iowa or any nearby state, do yourself a favor. Visit Miss Effie’s. She’s awesome. Her flower farm is Ahhhmazing. The views, to die for.
There were a few special vendors there for her partay. It was fun to look around.
And, Miss Effie even has chickens. You all know how I feel about chickens? (Love.them.)
This little one kept asking me to take it home. So pretty.
I can’t wait to go back and pick flowers. You get to bring home a bucket. Isn’t that awesome?
So, I was glad to finally get out to see Miss Effie’s farm. It was all I dreamed it would be.
Truly magical.







What a fun day, those flowers are gorgeous. Still working on B with the Chickens, he still says we’re not zoned for them. Zone shmone. Get some chickens please so I can live vicariously through you.
I need a Miss Effie’s in my neighborhood!
I want to live there. Gorgeous!! That chicken looks pretty cool too!!
I can’t believe how blue the sky looks in that first photo. Lovely!! What a fun day. 🙂
How cool. That is one fancy chicken! Have you been to Key West? The decedents of Earnest Hemingway’s chickens run free all over the island.
That place looks awesome!
how cute!!!
Beautiful photos girl… thanks for sharing!
I was there too – until my brood decided it was naptime and therefore got all cranky on me. 🙁 Hope you got some carrot cake … it was deeee-lish!!
i’d say magical is the perfect word to define your day. i think i could live there.
