This time of year, I think we're all ready for a breather. As a seasonal business, this is when we plan for summer, formulate new products, create, mend, read and fix things. Please know that, even though our "official" hours are posted as Saturdays only for the next few months, we are only a phone call away. We're happy to welcome visitors by happenstance or appointment and look forward to seeing you on Saturdays at our La Porte Farm Shop or South Bend Farmer's Market. Enjoy the peacefulness everyone!

As darkness begins to gain on this day, we wish you peace. As the days begin to lengthen over the next many weeks, we wish you hope. As Christmas draws near we wish you joy and merriment, if not now, then soon. With gratitude for your business and your friendship, always💜

If your list looks anything like this, come see us. The farm shop is open Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday. Plus, we're ready to help you find that perfect something at South Bend Farmers Market, booth 45 (across from the cafe). Bend Farmer's Market

Santa (Mike) has a special assignment this Saturday, Dec. 7th, at the La Porte VFW...breakfast with Santa from 7-11am. He will be manning the farm shop afterward. BUT unlike the real deal in the red suit, Mike cannot be in two places at once. So the farm shop will open at noon with all your favorite products ready for gifting. Come see Doreen at South Bend Farmer's Market 7am - 3pm EST.

We are kicking off our Christmas season with an off-site event, this Saturday, at IronHand Wine Bar in South Bend (1025 Northside Blvd). There will be plenty of artisan vendors with unique selections for that perfect gift. And, did I mention...WINE. 🥂 Hope to see you there (noon - 5pm).

Here's a sneak peak at Grounded and Growing, another first-time vendor this year. We are excited to have them join us!

Continuing the series of featured vendors, I want to highlight Wake the Lion Coffee, a new addition this year. Look at these cute cups and coasters...they had me at lavender. 😍

The Wool Emporium is another charter vendor on our lavender journey. We are so happy they will continue the tradition again this year. Swing by their booth as they spin wool into yarn and then make yarn into high quality wearables. You will find pieces that range from practical to elegant. Don’t miss the chance to make one of their creations your own.

Who's hungry? Heaven Help Us Pastries will join us again this year. They've been with us from the start, filling us up with tastey homemade treats, just like mom used to make. Grab a burger from the grill then top it off with a little something sweet. Delicious!

With the festival just over a week away, I thought you might like a sneak peek at what our vendors have in store for you. Today's preview is from Gloria's Glass Gardens. Blown glass bird baths and more await you at their booth. Tomorrow I'll feature another artisan...stay tuned.
