We recently planted a tree in our yard and I have wondered if the next people that own our house some day will be the ones that benefit from it's beauty. I am so happy you could drive by and still enjoy these beautiful trees.Marilyn Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13115440271615593122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7651375935571245232.post-14446357026403164782011-10-04T18:25:08.872-07:002011-10-04T18:25:08.872-07:00Mark,

My Dad was always a big gardener, after he retired he would plant almost an acre of just garden. How did two people eat that much, he gave it away. It gave him such pleasure to grow the veges, then share with friends, family and neighbors. Whoever stopped at that little rock house on highway 14 took home a sack of something from that garden!Joy Tiltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04183952085695405635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7651375935571245232.post-47427945897113811942011-10-03T02:19:24.475-07:002011-10-03T02:19:24.475-07:00Our farm stand this summer was "the honor sys...Our farm stand this summer was "the honor system" and it worked very well. One of my etched wood bowls was taken, and a regular patron couldn't pay, but always left a note saying he didn't. I guess that's atleast honest. :-) The missing bowl was the only real casualty all summer.Karen thisoldhouse2.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03302171590212119499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7651375935571245232.post-71907496449287806362011-10-01T20:53:03.136-07:002011-10-01T20:53:03.136-07:00I want a produce stand like that!

They have fresh produce as well as products made from their goat milk. There is an honor system when it's unattended and I also appreciate the trust they've placed in their customers.Denise at Autumn Skyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00229028926029898680noreply@blogger.com
