Welcome, Friends!
We are First Roots Farm, and we grow beautiful blooms and Kunekunes. We’re a gathering place for friends, families, and experiences—and you belong in this beautiful flower-filled community.
Hi, I’m Janell — the farmer behind First Roots Farm in Oconomowoc, WI. Our motto is simple: Grow wild, pick joy, and let yourself bloom. We're so glad you’re here!
Where Flowers, Piglets & People Gather
First Roots Farm has always been about you — the families who come out for flower-filled uPicks and photography sessions, the couples who create their dream day with DIY wedding florals or designed arrangements, the teams who gather here for corporate events and private family celebrations, and the businesses who invite us to bring The Flower Bar to help them celebrate.
This Micro Mini Photo event is open to EVERYONE! Think Santa, mums, pumpkins, piglets, and plenty of photo-worthy fun.
Micro Mini Photo Events at First Roots Farm are short, sweet, and unforgettable — designed to capture big memories in just a little time.
We’ve partnered with Babbling Babes to bring you a weekend filled with joy, connection, and lasting memories.

Hey there, I'm Janell! My husband, our four kids, and I are the family behind First Roots Farm — home to 1.5 acres of vibrant cut flower fields, and acres of Kunekune pigs grazing on pasture, and a community that blooms right alongside the seasons.
What started as a small garden dream has grown into fields you can wander, bouquets you can snip, wedding flowers designed with love, and the perfect backdrop for capturing family photos in the flowers. Whether you’re enjoying a uPick, picking up your CSA bouquet, joining us for a seasonal event, or savoring our pastured pork, we’re so glad you’re here.
