“When are you having another fairy garden workshop?”

This has been perhaps the most popular inquiry ever since our last fairy garden workshop in April. And since we just can’t disappoint all our wonderful customers, we are scheduling two more workshop dates this June.

So mark your calendars for June 9th at 1pm and June 13th at 10am.

You can visit this page for more information and to sign up for our workshops. Make sure to sign up quickly because there’s a limited amount of space in each workshop.

We look forward to seeing you!

Happy Earth Day!

With all the crazy weather of the past few days and in celebration of Earth Day, we thought we’d brighten your day with a few pics of all the new plants that are coming to life in the greenhouse. Featured here are some of the combos we’ve been working on. Maybe this will help with your spring fever and get the creative juices flowing.
