Last year's tree sale looked like this... what will this year's look like??? We won't know until it's here, but...

- we have more merch! (If you need a laugh, check out our last reel) Cuffed and uncuffed blaze orange beanies, twill truckers, plus our og foamie truckers--all with our classy leather logo patch.

- it's not *supposed* to rain 🤞🏼🤞🏼

- we put an addition on the barn so there will be MORE room!

- our daughter's class, the freshman class of the Ecology Learning Center, will be holding a fundraiser concession stand in the barnyard with coffee, breakfast sandwiches and homemade & donated baked goods.

- we hired a bigger crew! Which should mean faster lines, and a quicker pathway to getting home and getting those trees in the ground!!!

Come see us April 25th and 26th, 10a-1p!
