Thorn & Bloom is launching June 15

Growing up on a farm in northern NY instilled in me a deep attachment to the natural world. Before my parents bought the land, it had been a large peony farm and we were lucky to have sprinklings of heirloom peony bushes around our house and property. One of my fondest memories was running outside on a warm late spring day to sniff these beauties in their full flower, pausing at each one like a little buzzing bee just out of the hive. I’d stick my nose in blooms as big as my head, and marveled at the miniature fragrant world of ants and petals. Each season on the farm brought with it olfactory gifts as glorious as the spring peonies. Summer exhaled sour wild strawberries and sun-scorched earth. Autumn brought musty mounds of leaves and ancient apple trees hidden in forgotten hedgerows. Winter whispered plumed of smoke from spent fires and boiling sap amongst the evergreens.
