Quilt Garden Update

Our quilt garden received a "make-over" on Friday with 6 yards of fresh mulch! Check out the photos here...the darker mulch seems to really make the rose colored flowers "pop".

As you can see in the photos, the white vinca have taken off and have left the rose colored ones behind. We hope the hot weather this week will help boost them along.

Come out and see it for yourself, along with all the other gardens along the official Quilt Gardens Tour.

Shoofly Quilt Garden


The Shoofly Quilt Garden in front of the Farmstead Inn has been planted! We spent most of the day Wednesday digging in the dirt, creating a Shoofly Quilt out of vinca. We had a total of 24 volunteers helping over the course of 7 hours.
The official Quilt Gardens Tour opens Memorial Day through October 1. There are 32 sites along the tour (16 gardens and 16 murals). Don't miss this FUN, FREE and FANTASTIC experience! www.QuiltGardensTour.com
