Always said you'd like to make your own Christmas Wreath?

Here's your chance.


I have been making and selling large fresh Christmas wreaths for 4 years, and will continue to do so this year. However, there are some crafty DIY'ers who want to make thier own.

FlowerCamp

FlowerCamp 2009


FlowerCamp is about experiencing flowers, fun, and fellowship. Surrounded by 180 acres of Southern Pines, Campers will experiment with fresh flowers, greens and grasses to create their own unique fall designs. FlowerCamp will stimulate the artistic spirit for beginning and experienced designers. Campers are guided by good natured designers and Master Gardeners.

Not only is FlowerCamp for your enjoyment, but it is a method of cultivating your creative perspective.

farm. friends. flowers.

We spent the past 24 hours with our friends John and Mary Louise (yes, there is another one!) and thier 4 kids...There is something to be said about no distractions. Our mission was to relax, cook, cut flowers, weed. Ended up doing all that plus John helped Robert with the tractor!

Two cool dudes. One large catfish! A dip in the "pool"...

Zinnias are coming up great! ML cutting her share!

Beans(contd.)...the more you eat 'em, the more ...

You watch thier color change right before your very eyes!

(before)

Ok. So I am a little loopy about all the beans growing at home, but who knew?

Those beautiful (before pic) purple beans would have magical properties! Like Burgandy Okra, they turn back to thier "normal" color (after pic) when cooked...

(after)

A little EVOO(thnx Rachel.) and some garlic...tasty!

Are you growing beans?

see you
