Holiday Open House

I can't believe it's November 1st tomorrow. Christmas will be here before you know it. The Cabin is busy being cleaned and decorated for November 13th- our Holiday Open House. The time everyone gets a free mug with their $10 purchase. This will be 6th mug we've handed out. Do you have the collection?

The ponds are being prepped for winter. Need to be adding your good bacteria that likes cold temperatures. Aerators and heaters ready to go? Any questions, come see Tim or Betsy. Check out The Cabin Country Store on Facebook. Come sit a spell!

First Annual Plant Swap

The first annual plant swap was a success.
Plants, shrubs, herbs and more were swapped between gardners. Everyone that came left with lots of new plants (did I mention, all free!).
All seemed eager to get home and plant them in their flowerbeds
and vegetable gardens. It was a great time.

My grandkids had a good time too.
Exchanging of advice and new friendship were formed.


Overall, it was a great day for experienced and inexperienced gardeners alike.
Hope to see you there next year!

News from the Cabin

The Cabin is blooming with beautiful aquatic plants. From marginals and bog plants to water lilies and lotuses. Tim ans I spent a day getting muddy and wet potting up the new lotuses, cardinal flowers, lizard's tail, corkscrew blue medusa to name a few. Thank goodness it was a warm, sunnny day!

I have to be careful now that The Cabin has fudge and dipped pretzel rods. It is so tempting to sample everything. The fudge is made by Holiday Confections from Warren,PA and is made with real butter not margerine.

Two weeks away until our First Annual Plant Swap! Please call if there are questions.
