Hello All,
We had the rain that was needed and the sunshine days, too. The farmers are busy haying all over. Gardens are growing, and the corn coming up in the fields looks good. Flowers are blooming and look so pretty. Summer has sure arrived.

Open Thursday-Sunday, noon to 5 p.m. They will have lavender products, pottery and knit sweaters. They have planted 550 lavender plants that should be blooming in September. Heidi is healing from her knee surgery. Get well soon. Her mom Polly is very busy working steady. She has planted other plants, too. It should be pretty there soon.
