Many of you may know I have been working on a new blog called Pollen Patch. Slowly I have been adding new content that shows you what I am up to in the garden, some holiday ideas, and a few bee updates. I was looking through some pictures I had taken a few years ago at one of my favorite places to visit for Christmas ideas and inspiration called West End Nursery. This year is such a crazy year and I am not sure if we will be able to visit, but I am having fun looking at pictures of all the wonderful displays they had. If you are in the mood for a little Christmas cheer, check out my latest post on Pollen Patch by clicking here.
