What a lovely picture. Not a weed in sight. I live on a Christmas Tree Farm and we just completed the worst year we have ever had since we opened for selling four years ago.
Our big tree field was pretty well picked out, so this year we had a Charlie Brown Sale of the trees that were not perfect. We did o.k. and then we brought some already cut trees in Douglas and Fraser Firs, which went well. But we still were down in sales big time. The website is http://www.rob-lynfarm.com if you want to look at it.
Here is my old jeep. I am 82 and go flying around in in this thing. Everyone knows
the old lady in the jeep. LOL If you look at the website, I am the little white haired chubby one in the front row. The rest are all my daughter and her husband's family. They all help during our Sale.
I think one of the things I like best is sharing my plants. I raise mostly tropicals and house plants. I have a neighbor who has a Farmers Market Stand. She studied at Longwood Gardens and has some really neat plants. My greenhouse is so small, but she does not have Jasmine, Gardenias or Christmas Cactus and I do, so we trade cuttings and plants and I really enjoy that. At my age, most of my friends are in nursing homes or dead and I think the younger people keep me going. Sorry to be so chatty. I ramble at times.
