Last year during Covid19 lockdown, our first illuminated Christmas Tree in our garden welcomed family and<br />

friends in to our home during social distancing . Our garden Christmas tree became a symbol of joy and connection<br />

during a difficult time and will be continued as a family tradition.<br />

The holidays are here, and it is almost 2022! It is amazing how quickly life can change in one year.<br />

<strong>Flowers</strong> & <strong>Grapes</strong> is one year old, and yet we managed to celebrate the beauty of the landscape<br />

and lifestyle through four seasons while launching in the midst of a global pandemic! Thankfully,<br />

our ad-free publication continues to grow and share the beautiful gifts of the region with an everexpanding<br />

global audience.<br />

Our success is owed to our internationally celebrated featured contributors of florists, winemakers,<br />

flower growers, organic farmers, and lifestyle influencers who shared their creativity and inspiration<br />

with our readers. Their support has been a tremendous gift providing beautiful content<br />

for an audience that has flourished into a community of flower fanatics, gardeners, naturalists,<br />

and wine country enthusiasts. Thanks to our community’s generous crowdfunded donations we<br />

will continue to publish into the New Year!<br />

As our world continues to open, we can begin to enjoy more safely gathering with family and<br />

friends to celebrate and reconnect. Annual holiday parties, the Nutcracker ballet, holiday travel,<br />

and après ski at the lodge in front of a roaring fire are just some of the shared meaningful experi-<br />
