How nice is this January? I personally take this as a sign of a great year ahead. What better way to kick off a new year but with "pretend" spring. Feeling the sun on your face just can't be beat.
As much as we would like to believe spring is on the way, I think we all know better than to fool ourselves. That being said, at The Barn, we are already immersed in spring planning. I think you will be so excited for what's in store this year.
2011 was a year of big changes at The Barn. At the end of a remodel everyone just kindof breathes a sigh of relief and it takes a couple months for the benefits to kick in. Believe me, we are enjoying our new facilities! It has been funny to see customers walk in to the new store that haven't been in since the re-model. I think there are going to be a lot of pleasantly surprised faces this spring.
Our early spring calendar is almost complete. Here are some highlights. We are planning to attend the Crystal Lake business expo March 24th and 25th. The last weekend of March is our spring preview weekend, including all the new fairy gardening items. Of course, we can't leave out our pansy sale and the return of our whimsical "Easter Bunny Lettuce Baskets". Our favorite "outside" event of the spring, the MCC Garden Fest is on April 14th. The following weekend is our Annual Impatiens Sale. Sound like fun? Just wait until you hear what is planned for May!!
Before we know it "real" spring will be here and we will be at The Barn waiting for you. And of course, you can visit us anytime Wed-Sat between 10am and 4pm. Our gift shop is open all winter.
