Jackie and I would like to thank the wonderful visitors who made our spring season such a success.  Over 1,000 perennials and tomato/veggie plants were sold.  Additionally, customers bought most of the jam inventory. 

The greatest gift was the weekly exchange with folks who were planning their gardens and purchasing our bouquets, irises, perennials, jams and honey.  The events gave us the opportunity to renew past friendships and create new ones.  Many of you brought grandparents, small children and visitors from far away.  What a treat.

We will be reopening in September with a new batch of jams from our fruit harvest as well  as honey, perennials and bouquets.

In the meantime Jackie will be distributing iris orders in July and August.  And, we will continue to take bouquet orders throughout the summer.  Folks as far away as New Zealand have been ordering bouquets via email (ricko@hotmail.com and phone 530-269-9786 to be delivered in the Meadow Vista area. 

Soon we will be preparing fresh batches of jams from our fruit harvest.  With over 45 fruit trees and many strawberry, raspberry and Black Satin blackberry plants, we expect a great supply of local fruit for our jams.  Those jams will be ready for sale this fall.

Most of all we want to express our gratitude for the sense of rural community our customers have created.  They have shared their stories about gardening, creating a slower pace and becoming part of supportive village.  What a gift.
