New Beginnings


Life is full of new beginnings.

Some are big. Like a new baby being born into this world, walking down the aisle after you just said "I do", or tossing your hat into the air at graduation.

Some are small. Like opening a new book you've been waiting for vacation to read, watching the season premiere of your favorite tv show, or trying out the latest hairstyle you found in a magazine.

All are significant.

A new beginning I am most enthralled with is the opening of Redbud Farms and Nurseries, a new family endeavor. After weeks of planting seeds, months of watering, and years of envisioning, a beautiful seed has finally come to fruition. Selling annuals, perennials, ornamental grasses, native plants, ground covers, herbs, vegetables and more, Redbud Farms and Nurseries opens next Tuesday, April 1st in my home town of Fort Scott, Kansas. What a perfect time for a new beginning. With plants sprouting and buds blooming, the time of growth, renewal, and change; it is the beginning of a new season, the beginning of Spring.
