Join Us for A Very Whimsy Christmas

Tickets for our morning session were gone in just one day, so we’ve added an afternoon session! Join us Saturday, November 14, in Round Rock, Texas, for a special holiday tour of the beautiful home and outdoor spaces of Wendy Conklin. Enjoy sips and bites as you explore, take home complimentary magazines, shop the market on the lawn, and gather inspiration during learning sessions with Wendy, Sara McDaniel of Simply Southern Cottage, and editor Kelly McMaster. Come spend the afternoon connecting, learning and celebrating the season with us. We can’t wait to welcome you!. 

No-Carve Pumpkins

Ready to get messy with pumpkin guts this fall? How about getting those stringy insides stuck to your counters, floors and clothes as you carve pumpkins to decorate your home? No, us neither.  

Farm Fresh Flowers

Pumpkins and colorful blooms abound on this South Dakota flower farm, which has quickly become a beloved hub in its community with its special events and U-Pick gardens.
