The PA Creations Clubs first meeting of the year was about succulents.
This summer my mom stopped at a Mennonite farm who was having a yard sale and also happened to have a succulent business. My mom asked the two sisters that oversee the business if they could do a class for us. They agreed!
Most of the succulents they had originated in Mexico and Africa.
These are pumpkins that they were decorating for someone's wedding center pieces.
They turned an old corn crib into a tea room.
Bethanny, Joy, Ella, Anniston, and Rachel waiting for the class to start.
They are very creative with decorative skills.
These are ladies without pinterest. Well, these ladies don't even have a phone!
The business itself is up on the porch, in the yard, and in a green house.
The plants that were in the green house were the ones that could not live outside in the winter.
Whereas the ones outside could survive through the winter.
For the class we were able to pick out $5.00 worth of plants and fill the containers that we brought along.
The finished products!
While we were there the two sisters invited us to go to there little log cabin that their family had built one winter for fun.
It took 10 horses to get it moved up from the barn to the spot that they had chosen!
Elainah, Joy, Bethany, and Ella ready to have a sleep over.
These are the two sisters.
Beside the cabin was a fire pit that is well used.
There was also a really cool teepee that they got at an auction.
If you are ever traveling down Snyder Drive near New Holland in the summer be sure to stop in!
I had so much fun visiting the succulent farm and it was wonderful to revisit it in your posting, Hope. These ladies make it look easy to assemble an awesome display. They are so reasonable in their pricing that it seems easier and actually less expensive to buy the finished products. The log cabin looks as interesting as the tearoom. What a fun, interesting Keeper's program.
