New Day Flower Farm

06/19/2026

Today is a great day to add a little dusting of this food grade DE to your flowers or vegetable garden if they seem to be getting attacked by grasshoppers. Apply after dew has dried in the morning or at night after the bees have gone to sleep.

Happy Sunday, flower friends! Another beautiful week at the farm — the flowers are growing beautifully!!
Just a quick update: Our flowers aren’t quite ready for picking yet, but they’re coming along nicely and we’re still aiming for early July. . The warm weather and rain have been helping, and we can’t wait to open the farm for you!

Your business can be part of IBAT. Learn the signs and know what to do in a situation that has the signs of trafficking. Unfortunately it does happen in Iowa.

When we launched Iowa Businesses Against Trafficking, our goal was simple: prepare Iowa businesses with the tools to recognize the signs of human trafficking and know how to respond.

Today, I am proud to share that more than 1,000 Iowa businesses and organizations have joined that effort and committed to learning something and doing something about human trafficking.

Thank you to every business that has joined IBAT and helped us reach this milestone. If your business is not yet a member, I invite you to join us today at ibat.iowa.gov.
