Happy Mothers' Day! 2016

Looking back at last years post I was surprised to see how similar our herbs are doing.  Did we even get some snow last May?  Or was it the year before?

What would Mother's Day be without flowers?  Here is a virtual bouquet that will last almost forever on the internet, and continue to thrive in the backyard.

How about these FREE things to do with Mom!

• Free Admission for Mothers to the Greater Des Moines Botanical Garden, as well as their Spring Garden Festival
• Free Admission for Mothers at Reiman Gardens in Ames.
•  Moms can ride the Heritage Carousel for FREE!

 

You could also go for a Bike Ride, have brunch at the Zoo or maybe just spend the day with her in a backyard oasis.

 

 

Happy Mother's Day!
