Summer Fun

It doesn’t seem possible, but summer is only days away.  The Farm is already bursting with incredible produce and breathtaking flowers.

This Cancun lily is a favorite of mine.  Gorgeous yellow color which is complimented so beautifully by the Big Daddy hosta.  The hosta was planted just four years ago so you can see just how truly “big” it will grow in a short time.

Below is the Butterfly Weed a plant that loves sun, warm weather (it will also tolerate wet soil)- and Monarch butterflies!  It is also wonderful in bouquets.

Remember when you visit the Farm we are ready to dig the flowers you are interested in and send them home with you that same day!

So don’t think you have to wait until Fall to get a piece of your favorite plant – we want you to begin enjoying your garden as we do ours :)

Thanks to all of you who visited the Farm this past Saturday.

We were so excited to see you either in Strasburg at the Flea Market or at the Farm’s location just 1/4 mile north of Strasburg.

New to the Farm this week is this beautiful Cecropia Moth.  What a treat it has been to watch this creature every evening and morning-

Also new to the farm is our Fishing Gnome.  With all the gnomes in Strasburg we knew we had to have one for our Rural Route address.

He doesn’t have a name yet, but all the men involved in the Farm appreciate the fish on his line and his laid back attitude.

Have a great week. Take some time to enjoy the summer of 2010- and come stroll through our Farm soon!
