Yes, it was a light turnout, but we had such a nice time visiting! The conversations were exhilarating and the food to die for! The weather was perfect. All my flowers were taken to their new homes. What more can we ask for??
I dug up the iris and daffodils and put them in a sack and that's the way I'm bringing them. No chemicals in my yard, fertilized by chickens. Want them, take them. If not, that's ok if you are not comfortable with my germy dirt.
Still have not decided on what to bring. No time! House...
I'm bringing lots of purple iris to CS. Some daffodils. Have to see what else needs to go as I go along. Rearranging things. Looking pretty good. Don't think the oriental poppies will transplant well. Too bad, cuz they were so pretty.
Maybe just bring drinks? Or I'm sure we'll have plenty. I'm trying to figure out what to bring. My flower garden in the front of my house is a mess and we just put the house on the market, so I need to get it in shape. Thinning out. Had a couple of neighbors come and shop for flowers...

It's not that simple to "try it in the fall" As John said, the Pavillion is paid for. Too late for a refund. Pavillion is booked for the season. Why can't everyone just settle down and just look at it as a picnic? Still talk about chickens and still have great food! This will actually...

I think it will be great for all of us to get together and just visit with one another!!! I've been going for years and really just have gotten to know a few people because everyone is busy buying, selling or just looking at the different breeds and critters. Wouldn't it be nice to sit and...
