Don't try to typecast this venue as the buying options are as various and eclectic than you could imagine. The plants alone were stunning and had so many options. At the event I was attending, there were also various local food and beverage vendors. The food was outstanding and I will definitely be going to some of those restaurants and bars....on repeat! The photos don't do it justice so stop in to see what you are missing! You won't be disappointed!

Virgil's Plant Shop is freaking amazing every time I go in. Today I walked in with just a flamingo…read morepot I'd been holding onto, had a quick conversation with the staff about what would work, and left with this perfect little setup. They knew exactly what plant would look great in it and potting it up for me was seamless. Everyone who works there actually knows plants -- not just the basics, but real knowledge that helps you end up with something that fits your space and actually thrives. Super helpful, no pressure, and you always leave with something that feels special. Support your local plant shop. Virgil's gets it right every single time.

11/29/25 was small biz Saturday so we went to Virgil's holiday party. The party was so fun! We did…read morenot expect to have so much fun as we did. They had free cocktails all day and cinnamon rolls available for purchase. They even had a scavenger hunt which was such a nice touch!! like I still can't get over that idea??! so good!! You finish your scavenger hunt, you get a prize. And if you complete one of the harder scavenger hunt you get 10% off your purchase. Because of the holiday party they were already doing 20% tho. Everyone so sweet and kind. They guided us where to go for the scavenger hunt when it got hard! Everyone was friendly and assisted my friend on picking out a healthy plant. The cost of the plants were reasonable as well. I did not get a plant this time but my friend did and with the discount, I think it was well worth it. :)

We had so much fun! And I wish I had taken more pics of their actual tree farm area but it was a…read morerainy, muddy day and I was chasing two toddlers, lol. However, their customer service is amazing! They have pre cut trees in the front of the farm, closer to the house. If you're going down into the farm because you want the experience of cutting down your own tree, make sure to bring your own saw! The farm area is a pretty big and open field with lots of spaced out trees. It wasn't overwhelming at all, and they had lots of different sizes. When you go in to pay they have complimentary hot cocoa and hot cider, as well as wreaths to purchase if you want.

This is a fun, great little Christmas tree farm in Shawnee, KS. Even though it is in a suburb of…read moreKansas City, the farm is located in a more rural setting, which adds to its charm. It is very easy to get to, the trees are reasonably priced, and the staff are very friendly and helpful. It is a family-run business and the trees (Scotch Pines) are grown on the property. However, they do have some pre-cut Frasier Firs for sell. They also have all the supplies you will need to cut down and haul the perfect Christmas tree, free of charge. There is even free hot chocolate and cider and handmade wreaths available for purchase. Midland Holiday Pines is open 10am to 5pm the day after Thanksgiving, then every weekend until Christmas, 10am-5pm.

What an amazing place for some family fun! There are acres and acres of blueberry bushes. This farm…read moreopened in 1975 and has been delighting children and adults ever since. I have been going for the last 30 years and have seen many changes but have never left disappointed. The patch normally opens mid June and highly recommend calling the Picking Report before heading out. If going with little ones, take a wagon or backpack carrier for them. Little fingers can't pick very fast and tend to get tired. They have a wonderful bakery with delicious muffins for sale and a general store with all kinds of jams, bakery items, honey and anything blueberry related. If you didn't pick enough, you can also buy "We Pick" berries, but calling ahead to reserve is recommended. Lots of picnic tables to enjoy baked goods or picnic lunches. Walking can be challenging on the gravel surfaces, but for anyone with difficulties can drive to the farther fields. There will still be walking involved and no hard surfaces.

The Berry Patch has rows and rows of beautiful blueberries ripe for picking. I mean, you know, if…read moreyou go at the right times. And you'll know if the picking is good by following their socials. They post daily picking reports so you can judge whether or not it's worth the drive. We went on a very good picking day, in the evening, and picked just over 3 lbs of berries in no time. I only wish I needed more because it was such a satisfying activity. The farm was easy to find. Google Maps led me there with no issues. We arrived at ample parking space. Staff handed us a bucket and directed us to the currently available picking rows. We then walked all the way to the back of rows 1-3 and found a bevy of berries. After the gathering, we went back to the beginning and headed inside the little store where the berries were weighed and paid for. Fresh berries are a MUST in the summer and these were quite literally the freshest! I made jumbo blueberry muffins and a blueberry-topped cheesecake and they were delicious. The Berry Patch is so worth the effort.

I needed pebbles for painting critters on rocks. I never intended to paint critters on rocks, and…read moredidn't get small rocks from my last visit at House of Rocks. I found Randy's Lakeview Nursery and Stone in Lee's Summit. It's a beautiful facility near Lake Jacomo, It is a brown wooden barn and cute. In the back there's piles of different rocks, different sizes. They allowed me to hand pick what I needed, and I paid for it at the cash register. They also have a plant area and beautiful metal work. Landscaping rocks are their specialty. They also deliver locally, which is good to know, not many places do. There's no where in Independence that does this sort of service and have landscaping rocks available. I selected Missouri River Pebbles and will return when I need more.
