Episode 31: What’s to love about Fall?

Episode 31 Title Image "What's to love about Fall?"



In this cozy episode of "The Flower Files," we dive into all things autumn! From the joy of sweatshirts, crunchy leaves, and acorns, to funny TikToks of dogs diving into leaf piles, the team reminisces about their favorite fall moments. We talk about our beloved Boston Terrier, Cora, and share how fall brings a sense of slowing down—even if life feels busier with the end-of-year rush.

Lizzie shares her experiences with fall favorites like apple cider donuts (gluten-free, of course!), baking pumpkin bread, and bundling up on the couch for movies. The team also reflects on the darker side of fall, discussing spooky stories from haunted houses and eerie childhood nightmares. They explore the connection between the Halloween season, old ghost stories, and living in homes with historical significance.

The episode is also sprinkled with fun nostalgia about classic movies like "Harry Potter," "Hocus Pocus," and even the "Garfield" movie—proving that the emotions these films evoke are a timeless part of the season.

To wrap up, they touch on the busy fall planting season at their flower farm and the challenges of balancing fieldwork with unpredictable weather. It’s an honest and light-hearted conversation that celebrates everything great (and ghostly) about the autumn season, making it a must-listen for anyone who loves fall.
