Fern Ridge Farms 2013

Now that we've been in our Alabama location for almost 3 years, I felt it is time to update our website! … okay, so I'd rather pot and weed than sit at the computer- Sorry!
I do want to say thank you to all our friends in the Atlanta and surrounding areas for their continued support and those of you that have ventured outside the perimeter to make the trip over to visit the nursery here. Although we may be in the "country", most all agree this is a wonderful area to escape. Not only to view beautiful farmlands, but the mountains, rivers and lake areas are breath taking.

Over the past several years I've been really blessed traveling about the Southeast giving talks and presentations to garden clubs, Master Gardener groups and others. I can't begin to tell you how grateful I am for the many folks I've met and the friendships I've made. We continue to participate as a vendor at some of the "best" plant sales and events in the area. (Please contact us if we're missing any- of course there are just so few weekends in the Spring!)

Bulkley Medal to Fern Ridge Farms!

Sarah Henderson and Kathy Kennedy of the Discovery Division for the Southeastern Flower Show present to Eleanor Craig of Fern Ridge Farms the Bulkley Medal March 14, 2013 in Atlanta, Ga. This special award is given by the Garden Club of America for an exhibit in the fields of horticulture, botany, or conservation. The exhibit must be one of exceptional educational merit that increases the knowledge and awareness of the viewing public.

 

THANKS to each of you that have supported us at these events over the years, as well as those of you miles away that have "adopted" some of our plants by ordering and received from shipping. Certainly without you I would not been able to continue doing what I truly love - growing quality plants for your enjoyment and satisfaction.

We are located in Northeast Alabama, just 40 minutes west of Rome and 30 minutes east of Gadsden. For our Atlanta friends the trip over is a couple of hours.

We do ship our ferns but have found that we prefer to do shipping on a personal basis. Please call one of the numbers listed below or send an e-mail. We will be happy to help you.

Our phone number is 256-779-6351 and my cell number is 770-634-8586.

My e-mail address is eleanor@fernridgefarms.com.
