Welcome, I’m Sarah
As a family that moves often, I’ve learned to treasure the simple, timeless constants. For me, that constant has always been flowers. No matter where we settle, they bloom—quietly and faithfully—reminding me that beauty can always find a way, no matter the circumstances. That’s why I created Frolic & Fare: to share the joy of flowers and the simple pleasure of infusing beauty into every moment, wherever you are.
I’m here to help you craft celebrations with botanical elegance, even if you’re not as flower-obsessed as I am. Let’s bring nature’s charm to your next gathering, in ways that feel both effortless and unforgettable.
the Garden
Nestled in the heart of zone 7b, our little garden is beginning to bloom—rooted in curiosity, joy, and the timeless charm of cottage gardens. It’s our first year in this home, and while my hands are still learning the rhythm of the soil, my heart is deeply entwined with this tiny patch of Earth here in Virginia.
Follow along as I chart our garden’s progress, plant by plant, season by season.
