Christmas Eve Locally!

Soergel Orchards - Christmas Eve Shoppers
We made a run today for a couple of last minute gifts and some baked goods.  LFLF ended up at Soergel Orchards about an hour before the 2PM Christmas Eve closing time.  Looking back at the parking lot on the way out, you can see that we weren't the only ones!
Soergel Orchards Pine Wreaths & Greens
Several folks walked out with pine roping, wreaths, & greens and we ended up picking out an unusual gift --- a terracotta "toad abode"!  Isn't that why we all shop in the smaller local shops?  The little terracotta cottage is a toad house made to be put in the garden as a shelter for toads.  It will be a gift to a couple of small children for their garden.  You can't find that now at the big box stores!  And certainly, finding it in the same place that you get local beef, cheeses, produce, and baked goods is a great thing ...  :) 
Soergel Orchards Mission Statement
Note to local shoppers - starting @ 8:00AM on Saturday 12/27, all Christmas items are 50% off in Home Accents & the Garden Center!   I may have to make another run over the weekend since there were lots of nice things still there ...
