Happy New Year!

2005-01-01T22:51:00.000-05:00

With our day of rest nearly over we are ready to start 2005.

In the store inventory has begun, as the next couple weeks will be fairly quiet in the store.

Our bakery is still open and baking your favorites daily. Our bakers will be busy for the next few weeks making meat pies to be sold frozen. As much as we thought that we will be well prepared we didn't have that many left after the holiday. But don't worry there will be some if you stop by!

The greenhouse is now being cleaned after Poinsetta season is now over. We are preparing for our bedding plants and vegetables. Even though we aren't even near close to spring we have already started seeding. Our greenhouse tomato plants have already been seeded so that we can get an early start on the homegrown tomato season.

Don't forget that you can still stop by and visit with Zak, Annie and the rest of the animals in the petting zoo. Zak loves the cooler weather and spends a good part of his day outdoors. When it snows he turns white as the snow collects on his fur, he just loves it! Annie will be in the barn on a cold or windy day, but on the nice days she will be out in her paddock enjoying the sunshine.

That's about it for now, stop on by we would love to see you!
