We lost over 100 plants and we had to re-plant them all. We still have 100's to pick from and each of them are working very hard as they are sending up all of their blooms. Please be understanding as we are at the Mercy of Mother Nature. **We will not be charging an admission or parking fee, but we ask that you please respect our plants, animals, property and all of our hard work -- or this will be changing for future events at our farm.
