Mixed Bags

Mixed Bag orders are due please! Do you need volunteer hours? Why not sell Mixed Bags to your friends and family. You will receive 1 hour for every $25 dollars sold. Check out the Grocery bags on page 25 of the catalog. These bags not only hold a lot, they fit nicely in  cubbies and they fold up to the size of a wallet when not in use!

This is an annual Growing Tree event and all families are invited to join us for a morning of hay rides, pumpkin picking, and farmyard friends. It is a great way to kick off the harvest season.
