Happy weekend to you all! Did you all do anything to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day? Sydney didn’t catch a Leprechaun, but they left a little mess of Lucky Charms and gold chocolates at the Goeller house! I also spent the evening at the Spring Fling at the high school. This dance was hosted by the Interact Club and the Key Club, and the kids wanted to give all proceeds from the dance tickets to the Eve Shelter here in town. It was a great success! It’s great to see the next generation wanting to give back, and they had fun at the same time!

Just in case you were wondering…..our last name is spelled Goeller but is pronounced Geller!

We have added a real quick crafting class being added on Friday, April 6th! Scroll alllllllll the way down at the bottom for details! There are still a few spots left for the class next Friday (March 31st) too!

I also want to give a shout out to our oldest son, Cameron! He is turning 17 on Tuesday. Oh, how times flies! Don’t you just love your kids??!! Love ya SO much, Cam!

Here’s is our weekly update for everything outside!

There is still quite a bit of painting to do outside, but this week it has been too cold for Jim to get any of that done! Maybe there will be a chance to do some more later in the week, but this weekend is going to be COLD!

Just a reminder that Kennebec potato seeds are in as well as onion sets!

Ramps are coming on Tuesday! I have never tried a ramp before, and maybe some of you haven’t either……They are a wild onion and are also called wild leeks. They taste like a mixture of garlic and onion. Did you know there is a festival in Richwood, WV dedicated to ramps? It’s called the Feast of the Ramson. It’s on Saturday, April 22nd this year from 10:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m. Here’s a website with all the information for some of you who want a fun weekend getaway!

I was able to get some colorful potato bags in! They are heavy duty fabric 10 gallon bags with perfect drainage. It also has a flap on the side for easy harvesting. These are $9.99 a piece and will be put out today (Saturday) by the seed potatoes!

Potatoes are one of the best producing seeds that you can plant. One pound planted yields 10 pounds of potatoes! That’s a great return! The best way is to make sure your potato has 3 eyes on it. Cut your potato seed with a sharp knife. Plant them in a sunny area and water when necessary. You know your potatoes are ready because the potato vines above ground will completely die. That tells you that your potatoes are fully grown. Potatoes can last a long time in a cool, dark cellar or basement.

We are getting so excited for all of the flowers and vegetables plants that will be here before we know it! There will be plenty of hanging baskets, perennials, annuals, vegetable plants, succulents, etc. I can’t wait!

Here’s our update for this week on inside……

We know how short your lunch breaks are and how hard it can be to fight traffic and get everyone’s lunch back to them, so let us take care of that part for you!

Because of the weather, Jim has been able to start painting on the inside! We chose Cozy White for the walls and Garden Trellis for the trim. It’s a pretty sage green. He started on the back wall and he’s hoping to have all the painting done inside and out in the next few weeks! Check it out the next time you are in! P.S. All your compliments keep him motivated! Ha! Wink! Wink!

Jim and I were able to have a date day trip to the Walnut Creek Food Show last week. We had fun! We got to see all the new products and sample some things. There are some great new items that we will be able to offer you all soon!
