Fall is a great time to plant. While the plant is dormant, the roots continue to grow. In the spring you’ll have a larger plant with more new growth than if you had waited till spring to plant. Click HERE to read our previous article on the benefits of fall planting.
Spring Bulbs
If you ordered spring bulbs, expect to pick them up by mid-September. If you didn’t order, no need to worry! We ordered extras. Spring bulbs are the first sign of life in the spring and provide beautiful color for your landscape long before perennials start blooming, so reap the rewards of planting bulbs this fall with gorgeous color in your yard in the spring.

Recipe of the Month: Pork Roast with Provincial herb and Dijon Mustard.
Provincial Herb blend is a traditional blend of aromatic herbs traditionally from the Provencal region in France. Teri’s blend of rosemary, lavender, chervil and summer savory grown right here at the farm is a wonderful blend that enhances the savory flavors of grilled meats, vegetables and most Mediterranean style dishes.
