Wondering if you know next year’s dates, if you’ll be opening the farm again? I’d really love to plan ahead for it since I missed this last one. Thank you for all your generosity in sharing your knowledge!

Can’t wait for tomorrow!
I told my husband: I am going to this lady’s Farm I found on Youtube to buy my Christmas Presents. He laughed!

We are talking about flying up from GA for the day. I use to work for Delta so we have flight benefits when we can get a seat. Would love to see your operation. Thanks for opening it up to all of us.

Super excited to be planning this trip! Looking forward to seeing the farm and meeting everyone!

I received so much new information from your talks at the Mother Earth News Fair in Belton. I was especially interested in the biodegradable fabric you use in your gardens, but I failed to get enough information about the source and exact type of fabric. I wonder if you can steer me in the right direction. I have used the regular weed barrier cloths and they are a total mess.
Deb Rollins
Thanks for opening your farm. I loved seeing your flowers and shopping in your shop. I have already planted my Mexican single tuberoses.
Susan Gordon
So excited to see the December dates. I had planned to coming in June but a close friend is getting married on the 24th. See you in December! Susan in New Hampshire.
Helen
Looking forward to seeing the farm in June.
Donna Grubbs
Had a great time yesterday at your open house! Thanks for a wonderful afternoon!
Regina Kunschman
I am a Suffolk Master Gardener and cannot count the number of new things I learned at the tour event on Saturday. My 21-year-old niece (who is not a gardener) was so taken with the experience that she was planning a garden during the whole drive home! Thanks so much for your time and for sharing your knowledge and experience with us!

Dear Lisa,
My gardening friends, and I, from Botanical Buddies of Chesapeake garden club, really enjoyed our visit yesterday to your farm. You are such a wealth of information and we so appreciate your willingness to answer our questions. It was a beautiful way to spend the day.
