November - already??....

What a wonderful fall we have been having.  Dry cold days make it perfect.  The first frost hit the shop garden last night so time to get busy with winter clean up.  The chickens have enjoyed the fallen fruit from our pear and apple trees, we held our last class outdoors to enjoy this wonderful weather, and our vendors have been successful in finding lots of new treasures for us.  They have that something special to get our homes ready for the holidays and the holiday company. Holiday parties will be starting soon... don't forget about that hostess gift.  We have just what you need. 

Great classes this month...

So much happens in the fall... the temperature cools, the leaves turn color, the gardens finish ripening, seed saving, starting winter gardens, cold breezes, wood smoke in the air... I love fall!!  And I am not the only one as Fall has arrived at The Wade Creek House.  It is around  every corner.  

As I walk around the shop, it is hard to decide what pictures to take.. these are random, no theme, just what I like... and I know you will too but it is just scratching the surface.....

 

Cute little handmade ornaments



I love trunks and interesting suitcases

There are so many cool things, unusual things, handmade things, collectible things, old things, wonderful things.  We hope to see you!!

Autumn is the perfect time to take account of what we've done, what we didn't do, and what we'd like to do next year. ~Author Unknown
