Bloom Where You're Planted Farm

Well, I'm ashamed of myself, but I haven't written a new blog entry since summertime!  I've missed it and am glad to be back.  We'll blame my lapse on a busy fall season and some fairly uneventful winter months. 

We have had a pretty incredible winter here in southeast Nebraska.  Terry and I went to a nearby state park and hiked on New Year's Eve in mid-50-degree weather!  And that was just the start of some unseasonably warm weeks.  This winter has been much easier to take than some, and now that the geese are starting to return (and my bulbs are even pushing foliage up out of the ground!) we can look forward to springtime and the promise of good things to come.

We appreciate every single customer that visited during our seventh-annual Pumpkin Festival, and have some fun ideas up our sleeves for 2012.  I've actually made one new gift shop merchandise order already, and have a goal of choosing and ordering this year's pumpkin seeds before the weekend is over.  The first auction of the season is Saturday and we're looking forward to finding some goodies to add to the collection of antiques and primitives we've been buying for the gift shop throughout the winter.

We hope you're all well and look forward to keeping you updated about our plans for the farm.  Think Spring!
