Starting to think about....container classes

Listen...I like snow, but I like to actually GET some snow. This winter has been one big joke. Either bring us some snow, or give us some nice pretty weather. So, I'm just going to pretend that it's nice and pretty outside. I'm going to start thinking about the flowering plants that we are going to get in at the nursery and the container gardening class that I am starting to plan.

Last year I was going to do some classes...then I found out I was pregnant. The sickness started, and between being sick and being sleepy, I just wasn't into teaching any classes or having any groups at the nursery. I'm so sorry that I wasn't good company last spring, but now I am ready to go. Now if we can just get the weather.

The first class I'm starting to think about is a Proven Winners container class. Doesn't that sound like fun? I'm also working on some doorprizes, handouts, etc. I think it will be a fun time! I'm trying to think of what else to do. I think we will do an herb class, a windowbox class....I don't know, I'm still working on some things. If you've driven by lately you will see that we have a new retail building. We've got plenty of space inside to have classes if the weather doesn't permit us to be outside.

ALSO, if someone would like to use the space to teach a class or have a small demonstration party, please let me know. I would love to have a chef come down and teach a class on cooking with fresh herbs!!! So, if anyone is interested, let me know. All ideas are welcome, so leave a comment on here or send an email to missy@creeksidenurseries.com.

Thanks everyone. I'm so glad spring is here!!!!!!!......even if it's only in my mind......
