Farm Blog - Big Saturday event, garden center beauties

Hello from the gardens, So happy to finally get some rain. Now is a great time to get your garden planted, moisture and some cooler temperatures are ideal. Nature again teaching me to accept what is and adapt. Doesn't matter that my planting plan said I should have so much more in the ground. So we'll have a couple of very busy weeks and get caught up now!

Saturday is the first Angus Pop-Up Market of the summer!

Feature Perennial, Butterfly Bushes
- the name gives it away, the butterflies flock to this bush

The butterfly bush (Buddleia davidii) is a fast-growing, perennial shrub with masses of flowers—long, spiked trusses—that bloom from summer to autumn. (www.almanac.com/plant/butterfly-bush)
