Well, as anyone who has tried putting together a large structure without instructions (months later!) can tell you, it wasnât as straightforward as weâd...
Fall Favorites: Dahlias, Eucalyptus, and Our Big Preparations for Spring!
Happy Fall! Weâre in full swing with our fall preparations, working to get everything in place before winter arrives. Fall is one of our busiest seasons, as we focus on flipping beds for early spring flowers and planting a wide variety of seedlings, bulbs, corms, and bare roots. Earlier this summer, we laid down a silage tarp to extinguish the grass, and now that itâs been lifted, weâve begun cultivating the soil, enriching it with compost and nutrients. This fall we are creating 8 new beds...
