Welcome to Fedco!
Tom says it all! A beautiful day to pick up a couple trees and planting amendments. This is quite the happening place. We were here last year on a Saturday, and while busy, nothing matches the crush of this year's Friday crowd.
The doors opened at 9 a.m. We pulled in at 9:30 , after a 2 + hour drive to get here. The parking lot was nearly full already!

I would put pictures of the how busy it was, but it was so crowded I have serious close ups of people.... trying to manage my phone with a box full of trees - as the pictures attest, not easy.
Chosen trees, making like wallflowers, boxed up in their sawdust blankets waiting patiently.
The forest through my trees - as I wait in line for wrapping and check out.
All tallied. Next is the wrapping. Now if that isn't some serious plastic.
While H. took my place in line, I wandered over into the Herbs and Bulbs (also asparagus and strawberries area). I picked up some more herbs for the Keyhole Garden and guilds, as well as a couple of pretty perennial bulbs.
As we went outside, these flowers were growing along the edge 9 the parking lot. They looked like little dandelions perched atop purple asparagus. I don't know what they are , but I scooped one up for the ride home to investigate it further. Any guesses?
