Making Time!


Hello all and welcome back.

Its a beautiful day outside but I wanted to try and write more often.
We are trying to look at the farm in a new light.
We are trying to make gift idea's out of the wood we have in the trees.
This is a new idea to us. We have always just sold the tree's as Christmas tree's.
This year we are opening up the fields to people that would like to buy bough material and other green material they might want for wreath's or floral arrangements.
We are also open to letting Non-profit groups come up and get tree's for their fundraiser
@ $12.00 a tree with free baling.

Since we make our own wreaths and have the machine, I was toying with the idea of bring into the picture making wreath markers for head stones. What do you think??
You do see a lot of people decorating headstone at Christmas time for there loved ones who will not be forgotten. I even saw a head stone with the metal vast used to hold flowers someone had placed a Christmas tree in it and decorated it.

Something we ran across in researching something was the Yule log.. Yule means no work as long has the special log burns.
It is a long Christmas tradution to get a Yule log and burn it on Christmas or New Years and it will bring you good luck...they even take it to the next step of good luck so you take the ashes and bury them near a crop you want to trives and this will give you a good harvest.
I found this very intresting so this year for the Christmas tree season here you will have the chance to buy one..We all could use a little good luck don't ya think?

Mean while back @ the farm
