Spare Minutes...

I was visiting last evening with the sweet lady who is making dolls for Rocky Creek's


They are SOOOO cute so be sure to check out her table when you come.

I cannot believe March is almost over and we still have SO MUCH TO DO to get ready for Farm Fair.  I'm being a "helicopter mom" (as Farmboy Gary tells it)  to all my seedlings.  The weather is just sooo cold and damp.  I have heat mats and lights and plastic sheets and fans and good music 24/7, and yes, prayers, all trying to persuade the seeds to grow and plants to develop so they will be ready to go home with you to your garden!
Here's a photo from a past Farm Fair: IT WAS SO COLD WE WE ALL BUNDLED UP!  But, it didn't destroy the FUN!!





Bet you've NEVER seen pillowcases like these!






The sewing machine has been whirling with new creations like these designer pillowcases.  The idea is not to MATCH them, but to COORDINATE them.  Look for them in the Farm Store at








Know what this is??????  Take a guess......   

YOU'LL SEE IT AT         FARM FAIR MAY 5     !!!!!!!!!!


There's more to Farm Fair than buying transplants.  How about a quick tutorial in organic fertilizer?  Or how to figure protein percentages in mixing animal feed?  Or try your hand at horseshoes?  Or browse through our new Farm store.   Or, there's plenty of places to walk and ponder or sit and think!!  Just come on out and enjoy the country air.

Farm Fair



Cherry Blossom, Nutmeg & Thumbelina muching on dandelions.
It may be cold, windy and snowing outside (thanks Punxsutawnie Phil) but we are busy planting, planning and producing herbs, veggies, flowers and dry goods for our Spring Farm Fair.
You won’t want to miss it so mark your calendar for MAY 26  10 am to 4 pm and get ready to spend a day at the farm. 
We are offering free mini-classes on organic gardening with transplants, organic fertilizer & pest control for sale.  Ever wanted to try your hand at making traditional herbal remedies?  Now’s the time to take advantage of the free herbal mini-classes.  There will be herbal kits for sale that contain everything you need to make a remedy.
Take a stroll through the Farm Store, meet local vendors and neighbors and select unique, distinctive and charming gifts for Mother’s Day or any gift-giving occasion.  Our vendors are working, crafting and sewing to offer you the best in hand-made items you will be proud to give (or keep!)  A few of the offerings are designer pillow cases, aprons, bags, dolls, baskets & liners, tea towels, hot pads, baby quilts, gift bags & cards, doll clothes.   All natural, old fashioned lye soap and spinning demonstrations.   Charming mini-herb gardens for the patio or window.  Varieties of herbal teas with instructions on how to turbo-boost the nutritional/medicinal value.    You may even encounter little Fairy houses.
Free Range!!


 And, don’t leave the kids at home.   Children’s activities of doing laundry-pioneer style—shucking corn (gotta feed those chickens and ducks), playing horseshoes or crochet will keep your little ones busy and happy.
Plus, everyone will fall in love with the most unique playhouse you will ever lay eyes on—little tee pees!!  You’ve never seen anything cuter, more imaginative or more fun to play in.
We’re easy to find—hope you can stop in and say hi.   
There was an old woman who lived in a shoe; she had so many children she didn't know what to do!
