Garden whimsy is my kind of horticultural happy. Yes, it's rained every day since we can remember- the silver lining is all the Spring colors are so saturated and beautiful and the plants are hydrated.

We won't discuss tonight (and tomorrow night's) low temperatures. Cover and bring in...

The Garden Cabin is open this weekend. Thursday, Friday, Saturday, 11:00am-4:00pm
Spring Plants, Gifts, Maybe Bouquets
Message me directly if you need a Spring something for your home, a gift or just need a bunch of local flowers! And, if you prefer to visit earlier, reach out anytime.

"You've got to get up every morning
With a smile on your face
And show the world all the love in your heart
Then people gonna treat you better
You're gonna find, yes you will
That you're beautiful, as you feel
Waiting at the station with a workday wind a-blowing
I've got nothing to do but watch the passers-by
Mirrored in their faces I see frustration growing
And they don't see it showing, why do I?
You've got to get up every morning
With a smile on your face
And show the world all the love in your heart
Then people gonna treat you better
You're gonna find, yes you will
That you're beautiful as you feel
I have often asked myself the reason for the sadness
In a world where tears are just a lullaby
If there's any answer, maybe love can end the madness
Maybe not, oh, but we can only try
You've got to get up every morning
With a smile on your face
And show the world all the love in your heart
Then people gonna treat you better
You're gonna find, yes you will
That you're beautiful
You're beautiful
You're beautiful as you feel"

-Carole King

One of my favorites of all time!

"Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing
and rightdoing there is a field.
I'll meet you there.

When the soul lies down in that grass
the world is too full to talk about."
