September 2020

Hello September!

What a HOT summer we have had. It's been so hot and dry lately and I know I speak for all of you and all of our plants that we have enjoyed the recent break from the 90s. Everything is stressed and looking forward to cooler and hopefully wetter days. Our FALL SALE gets even better this month with all Trees and Shrubs priced to move! We also have several "in need of serious love" trees marked throughout the nursery at 75%-80% off!! Bring the family out and set out on a scavenger hunt to find 1 or 2 you would like to tend to. Either way, come out and take advantage of low prices and cooler weather for planting! Make sure to keep in mind the importance of winter watering when planting in the fall as no warranty is offered during the fall sale. The unmistakable smell of fresh roasted green chilies are filling the air here too! Stop in or call ahead for your freshly roasted batch. We will be CLOSED on Labor Day, Monday September 7.

Garden Thymes with Jackie September Edition "September days have the warmth of summer in their briefer hours, but in their lengthening evenings a prophetic breath of autumn.  The cricket chirps in the noontide, making the most of what remains of his brief life. The bumblebee is busy among the clover blossoms of the aftermath, and their shrill and dreamy hum hold the outdoor world above the voices of the song birds, now silent or departed." -   September Days  By Rowland E. Robinson, Vermont.
