Wisconsin Garden Expo, Feb. 10-12

We are excited to again be participating in the Wisconsin Garden Exposition, taking place February 10th through the 12th at the Alliant Energy Center in Madison. This is an outstanding exposition that offers hand-on workshops, excellent seminars, and a wealth of garden related exhibitors. Monches Farm will be exhibiting there (you'll find us in "booths" #232-233) and our own Zannah Crowe will be presenting a seminar entitled "Gardening for Birds & Butterflies" on both Saturday and Sunday.

Wisconsin Trails

We are thrilled to be included in the September/October issue of Wisconsin Trails Magazine as part of an article on splendid autumn day trips. We are featured in an article entitled "Delafield to Holy Hill", which suggests the scenic drive up highway 83, with numerous recommended stops (The Farm included), as a great fall driving (or bicycle!) trip.

Autumn Decorating

We've got a great selection of pumpkins of all sizes as well as many strange & wonderful gourds for autumn decorating. Inside the shop you'll find an array of unique Halloween items, ranging from the whimsical to the goulish to the beautiful. Halloween is Johanna's favorite holiday and she has an eye for truly unusual (and fun) decorating items.
