Busy days-

Wow- the end of the year seems like so long ago,and it's been forever since I've posted. I apologize! Happy Spring!! We've been so busy - getting ready for the opening of the store,greenhouses growing, bridal shows, photo shoots... I have to stop and take a breath!

The farm is almost in full swing. We've filled most of our  greenhouse space and have lots of beautiful hanging baskets getting ready for all you moms out there! CSA shares are filling up quickly, but we still have room and we can't wait to meet all our new members. I think  we're going to have an outstanding season!! - and we're booking lots of weddings for 2011.

The farmstand will open on April 22nd!! Mark your calendars for pansies, shrubs, perennials, and lots of other goodies!! We'll have fresh eggs, Collinsville bread, and all the other great local products we carried last year, and then some. We can't wait to see everyone!

Did you see our images from our photo shoot at the UCONN Alumni Center? It's really a great place for an event- especially if you love our basketball teams! ( They're awesome!!)The museum is a unique space with great lighting. ( I have to admit that I hold it close to my heart since I am alumni.) One of my favorite pics follows- thanks to Strawberry Road Creative for the beautiful pic. Dave is fantastic- definitely check out his site if you're looking for a photographer.



Then we were down at the Crocker House in New London, again with ESTOccasions, who put on a great bridal show. Thanks to Kia and her ladies! What a beautiful venue, so much character, and fantastic wooden doors! One of those odd architechtural details that caught my eye. This show was so packed with fantastic vendors!! The Beauty Bar will make you beautiful, Amber from Honeysuckle Pictures has got to be one of the most fun photographers I have ever met, and of course, the ladies at ESTOccasions will take care of everything for your special day so you have no stress- how much better can it get?



Some pictures from our photo shoot- enjoy!!

aren't they gorgeous?


and the greenhouses are chock full of perennials, beautiful hanging baskets, and herbs of all kinds.
While we wait for Spring to really come- stay warm and remember, it will be here soon!!
