The color on this little #Vanda hybrid is amazing, super saturated and they just glow when the sun hits. Named after (created?) by James Rumrill, one of the most creative orchid hybridizers to play with pollen. #orchids #americanorchidsociety #broken

Happy Mother’s Day to the incomparable @ermelak who brought such joy into our lives in the forms of Charlize and Artemis. To be able to create happiness is a rare gift, but these two kiddos are happiness (and exhaustion) incarnate! #mothersday
Before and after of the kitchen. I had a good view when I walked in today and snapped a photo then was inspired to go look at older photos to see progress. Then I looked for more photos when our friends helped and then I made a post at midnight. Way
Just some monster cactus flowers in the rafters. Short lived but so damn pretty. #epiphyllum #brokenchimneyfarm #slowflowers #peach
Don’t have step by step photos of this apple bunt cake by @carolasager but it was inspired by @toniprofera who shared the recipe with with us. It is delicious! Yet another treat. One step closer to fattening the curve #brokenchimneyfarm #bake #
Branch game still going strong at BCF #brokenchimneyfarm #branches #flowers #prune #orchard
Baking is in full force @brokenchimneyfarm thanks to @carolasager giving us lessons on how to make French pastries @svitlana_rebenok . Nothing quite like chocolate croissants fresh from the oven #brokenchimneyfarm #baking #pastries #panechocolate
Orchard branches that were pruned are now 8 foot high trees inside the house and it feels amazing! They just need the ends trimmed and to be placed in water. Everything at the farm gets repurposed. #fruitbranches #pruning #tree #brokenchimneyfarm #d
Got potatoes? Our veggie garden will be so impressive this year. We’re moving a bit away from flowers and focusing on vegetables for the summer. Also, you know how they burry bodies in movies with bare hands in the winter... 🙄... that doesn&rs
Doing a bit of grafting in the orchard yesterday and was amazed by the color in this scion. This is a red fleshed Apple variety called Almata it Alamata depending on the source, what’s amazing is that the the pigmentation that makes the Apple f
Omg... us from 4 years ago. It feels like it was another lifetime when we didn’t have babies with us at all times. Thanks @watley_ for this photo! #campcongamond #throwbacksunday
Here is a before and after of the sunroom. Sadly we couldn’t find any great photos of the terrible mural that we painted over but that’s what made the most visible change. That and all the trim work. It’s hard to see now but this is
Rear view where the original part of the house was built in early 1700’s. This photo is 3 years old. We’ve changed the landscape but the outside of the house is still the same 🙈. There is only so much time to work on all our projects #br
More fireplaces you guys. While I’m on maternity leave I finally have time to dig up old photos. @carolasager dressed up this fireplace with some simple trim and @renovationhusbands provided the inspiration for the tile to cover up that ugly lo
This kitchen was one of the first projects we tackled. After taking down terrible cabinetry we discovered this beautiful fireplace hidden in there. What a pleasant surprise. So we bit the bullet to rebuild the damaged brick and fixed the chimney. I w
Perfect fall weather today - but the trees decided to start decorating for Christmas - seems like it starts earlier every year.... #homeorchard #brokenchimneyfarm #apples
The color on this lil’ guy is brilliant. A #sunsetvalleyorchids hybrid that would fit well on a windowsill. #svo6569 #americanorchidsociety #grownnotflown #orchidaddict #cattleya
