This was a solid 3 star festival. I headed here to spend time with family for my birthday. I've…read moreseen posts for the Wool Festival on social media but had never gone. I love crafts and this festival has you covered for sure. There were no less than 5 giant tents filled with booths of all kinds of handmade goods. The admission charge was $5 and they only took cash. Due to the area that the festival is in, phone signals are hard to come by so most places only took cash. There were plenty of bluegrass bands playing throughout the day. There was a main stage and a smaller stage to keep you busy. Sheep demonstrations took place as well and there was a smaller tent with a petting zoo. The festival had a lot of cute places to stop and take pictures. Several families seemed to do their family photos while at the festival. On the downside, seating for the music was mostly hay bales. After about 30 minutes, you can feel the lack of support. Also, trying to park can be a test of patience so it's best to get to the festival early. There are shuttles to take you to the various parking lots. The music acts tended to play on both stages. For instance, a band that played on the main stage at noon played the smaller stage at 2. If you liked a band, you could see them play twice but most of the time it felt redundant. This was an ok festival overall. Lots of crafts and food as well as some decent music.

I went to a tea party here! The grounds are lovely and we were able to go out and pick lavender as…read morepart of the ticket price for the tea party. The owner of the farm told us about the farm and how they ended up adding lavender to the business at a way to have a revenue stream. They had many items for sale that contained lavender. There were a lot of us there as we came in a group and they accommodated us very well. It was extremely hot on this day, about 90° with not much breeze. We all managed though. I have been to a lot of tea parties and sometimes the food that you get in the tiers is not all that great but the food on this day was really delicious. They had a framed card on the table that told what was included in each tear and they set the three tiered container down in front of four of us and there were four of each of the items so everybody got to try everything. On the bottom tier today they had chicken salad sandwiches on croissants, cucumber and strawberry on white bread, and roast beef on a French baguette, along side of this tier they included a goat cheese spread and horseradish. The middle tier included a lavender scone, a lavender biscotti, and lavender pear bread. My favorite was the pear bread. It was so moist and very delicious and you really got the pear. The top tier included lavender shortbread cookies, lavender fudge, and a lavender blackberry cheesecake. My favorite on this tier was the fudge, it was delicious and super soft and very chocolatey. There were a couple of different teas offered. The hot tea was a Darjeeling and lavender tea and the cold tea was an herbal tea and they served this with some lavender kissed sugar cubes. Once we finished our meal and tea then we were free to walk about the lavender garden, and they showed us how to cut the stems and gave us a basket and scissors. There were two sides to the garden with one side being the more fragrant lavender stems that they used to make their oils and then the other garden was more the culinary variety. There were both white and purple lavender stems. They also offer other options when you get your ticket, you can choose to make a wreath or a painting, but on this occasion, I just chose to cut some stems and bring them home to dry. It would have been more enjoyable if it had not been so darn hot, but no one can control the weather, especially in the Midwest. I had a lovely time and would definitely go back to do it again.

The farm is located down a pretty, winding road near the Brianza Winery. With your $12 ticket, you can pick bunches of lavender from two different areas - one offers a variety of culinary lavenders (sweet, floral, herbaceous) and the other is comprised of regular lavender, which is used in oils, decor and landscaping. You receive a basket, scissors and instructions on how to cut the lavender when you arrive. There's easy parking on grass right by the fields. When you are done gathering your lavender, the friendly staff wraps it up for you in lovely lilac paper to take home. The fields are not very big but they are pretty and there are purple Adirondack chairs in the rows begging to be in pictures. Lavender scented goods are available for sale -- I picked up some lotion and jam. Visitors are welcome to enjoy a picnic on the grounds, which I did with my friend after we'd gathered our lavender. This was a nice way to spend a few hours with a friend.

Lots of love for local tree farms ... especially this family-run favorite in Alexandria, KY!…read more My husband and I had been planning to head further north toward Dayton, OH to cut down our tree this year ... except most of the farms in that area now take time reservations, and they were all booked up by the time we were looking for a tree. We did a bit of research, and decided to check out the adorable Gubser Tree Farm. We were not disappointed! We drove up to the farm, and we were immediately greeted by one of the owners, who encouraged us to grab a saw and check out the trees. There were green tags attached to the trees that were eligible to cut down ... with prices ranging from $60-$70. Anyone who's cut down their own Christmas tree knows that these are usually upwards of $100 - so this is quite a deal. The trees themselves all seemed well taken care of - and we had a hard time selecting which one we liked, since there were a few we had our eyes on. We went with a thicker tree that's around 7' tall, and it cost us $70. After we cut down the tree, the owners wrapped it up for us, and tied it to the top of our car. They were quick, friendly, and efficient. We paid for the tree inside of a little craft shop, and if we hadn't been in a bit of a hurry, we would have certainly been tempted by the homemade zucchini bread. All in all, it's safe to say a visit to Gubser Tree Farm is going to become our new holiday tradition!
