There is no doubt—Glass Tangerine has entered its busy season. Actually, busy does not accurately encompass the crazy, constant, exciting few months we’re in.

Warm, sunny weather has finally come to Cookeville.

When one project ends, we jump into the next one. Such is the way of life here at Glass Tangerine, and with our new storefront buildout completed, it was time to turn our attention back to our farm.

Clothes shopping can be scary.

Twelve hours. Twelve hours of sweating, lifting, styling, restyling, and problem-solving is what it takes a team of six women to put together an entire store in one day.

“It must be so nice to work here; I feel better just by walking inside.”

Valentine’s Day is over, and baby, we made it.

There is something so exciting about looking at an empty building and knowing you get to transform it.

It’s incredibly difficult being a solid steel trap. Since late last year, it feels like all members of the GT team have been bursting at the seams with secrets threatening to spill at any moment. But we all really like our jobs, and some things just can’t be shared until it’s time.

Houseplants are a strange thing to think about.

“What would you give to someone that kills everything they’ve ever tried to grow?”

I hope you missed us, but miss us no more, because we are back!

Just kidding, everyone is fine, but we have had some concerns.

Thank you. To all our friends, our supporters, our people, we are so grateful for you.

Do you hear what I hear? It sounds like the end of this crazy year is officially here.
