Today we take down the flats of perennials, herbs, succulents, to sell as we have 2 racks of plants at the fair for selling. Also have several things for the miniature gardens( fairy gardens). Plus we have planted junket planters so they will be on sale. Pam Gessford from the Journey's Past will have some things there from her store which are fun to look at and purchase. Air plants will be there. Plus new this year are God's Garden Pots.
We need to load all of it in a livestock trailer and we double deck the pickup to get all of it in one trip. I will be pulling the 2 wagon racks this morning empty, then we have them there to unload. How many years have you been doing this? I would say 17 years so should know the how to do it by now. We have had many people help us load and unload and so thankful for that.
Larry will be taking down another tractor and a hayrake for Grandpa's Farm. They are bundling wheat today. Yesterday they did 5 large loads of wheat for threshing later this week. Where they harvest the wheat is the parking lot for the fair so they need to get it done before it rains.
Speaking of weather humid again but hopefully not all week, and hopefully not too many storms. But this is something we can't change so will do what we can with the weather. Today the fair grounds will be buzzing with all the committees working on their part of the fair. I will take pictures and post later. Enjoy our report of the Franklin Co Fair which is our vacation from Larry's Garage, Becky's Greenhouse.
Till tomorrow, this is Becky Litterer, Becky's Greenhouse, Dougherty, Iowa
