MOTHER’S DAY
Just a note that we are ready to help you celebrate Mother’s Day this weekend. Our friend RuthE Fox, former baker at Vivienne when it was a cafe and at Maurice, is popping up with a selection of 6” cakes, including carrot cake with cream cheese frosting and pineapple; pistachio layer cake with strawberry buttercream and rose petals; rhubarb upside-down cake; and lemon butter wafers with strawberry dust. Order here, pick up Sunday from 12:30-3:30 at the shop.
Future Farm is doing a special pre-sale for Dhalia tubers for pick up anytime this weekend. These are the “bulb” part of the dhalia, a perrenial flower bearing plant and the tubers are ready to sow April -June. Order a 6 pack of tubers for your garden or your mom’s, pick up Thursday-Sun 12-6 at Vivienne.
We also have a bunch of adorable greeting cards and all the best books. Come through for your mama!
WE ALSO WOULD LOVE TO SEE YOUR HERE FOR SUMMER CSA PICK UP
Future Farm is offering a Summer flower CSA and our store is one of their pick up sites. Sign up to get weekly flowers that you pick up at Vivienne. Have a glass of wine on our patio while you’re here! I have some of their fresh cut ranunculus in the store right now and much to my disbelief many of the buds are looking stunning at 3 WEEKS! You probably want this little bit of summer Joy.
Last, Sweet Annie’s Farm on Sauvie Island still has space in their bi-weekly vegetable CSA that runs late May-November. This will be our 3rd year with this CSA and it’s really changed how we eat and how we support farmers for the better. Email Farmer Carol at the link above to pick up at Vivienne.
