Fern Ridge Farms 2009
Although "Georgia will always be on our
mind", after almost thirty years, it is time to return
to "Sweet Home Alabama" and the new location for
Fern Ridge Farms. (Nope, not a native Alabamian, just landed
there from the hills of Tennessee after college.)
We are very excited to announce that we are finally in
the final stages of construction and will open our nursery
this fall in Cedar Bluff Alabama. Our Canton location is
still stocked with plants that we hope not to move and are
available for sale. Please see our scheduled weekend openings
this fall. As Always, we welcome visitors any time, but
please contact me in advance, as we are still busy running
back and forth.
Our new phone number in Alabama is 256-779-6351 or my cell
number is 770-634-8586. My e-mail address is eleanor@fernridgefarms.com.
Alabama address: 6254 Hwy 273 Cedar Bluff, Al
A BIG THANK YOU!!
2009 will be remembered by me as my scariest most challenging
year in our over 23 years of business. After 3+ years of
extreme drought, the gloom and doom of the world economy
and the challenges of relocating the business I was certain
I would have to join the "job seekers" in January
2009. Thanks to you, our loyal customers, we survived, starting
off with our best year ever at the Southeastern Flower show
in February. Thank You for your continued support and allowing
me to continue what I truly love - growing!
LOOKIN' FORWARD
