September Special

If you’re like me, come February, Colorado winter’s harsh chill and barren terrain is wonderfully warmed by colorful crocus, daffodils, tulips, muscari (grape hyacinths), and other Spring flowering bulbs. Planting NOW will give you that result. What about Summer? Prep beds and sow wildflower seed NOW. WHAT ABOUT FOOD? If you want to grow produce, NOW is the time to get bulbs, seeds, and perennial plants (flowers too!) in the ground for next year. Call me, Farmer Mike, for a FREE 15-minute over-the-phone consultation and a dozen FREE tulip bulbs when you schedule a masterclass.

“Get the whole family involved and dig in!”
