Update from the farm

Hello to everyone, I hope you are looking forward to the holiday season as much as I am. I get many visitors to my cozy little shop during the months of November and December and I absolutely love chatting with returning customers and meeting many new customers. People looking for unique pieces of glass art or honeybee products are sure to find something unique and tasty to put under the tree.

The beehives at The Willows Flower Farm + Market are all tucked away for the cold weather and my colonies here at the farm will be wrapped as soon as the rain stops. Did you know that when we harvest our honey, we always leave at least 75 lbs of honey in the hive so that the bees have enough food to get them through the winter. Many people think bees hibernate, but they don’t. They are awake and cuddling together in a cluster around the queen to keep her warm.

The Willows will be hosting a Winter at The Willows Christmas Market during the evenings of November 22nd and November 29th between 5-8 pm. We will be there with honey and some of our very popular fused glass Christmas trees. There will be lots of vendors, Christmas lights, and even a cozy fire to warm up around if you get chilly.

Watch our social media pages for announcements on upcoming Fused Glass Workshops. We have a lantern class coming up on November 19th that you won’t want to miss. Our classes usually sell out so book your spot quickly.

Our cozy shop can be open anytime by appointment. We will be open most days during the month of November between 11-4 but if you want to pop out in the evening just message me and we can arrange something to suit your schedule.

We hope to see you soon!

Bee Happy

Sincerely

Frances
