Will you shut off that WIND!

PLEASE, shut off that wind! Can't keep small transplants wet enough in this wind!

Our Bodacious Bouquets are now available again at the St. Peter Co-op.

Stop out and see our irises in their glory. With the predicted heat, they are likely to go fast, so stop out within 7-10 days if you would like to see them and order for your home gardens.
Check sidebar for our farm hours and location.
