4 more days!!!!
4 more days and Project: Buy local will be underway. Today I officially ended the task of handing out 500 flyers. I was worried I wouldn't get them all handed out. It had rained here almost everyday this past week thus putting a hold on my delivering the flyers. But I made it!
I'm really excited and curious to see how this all goes down. Do people really care about buying local? Did anyone even read the flyers I handed out? Will Pansies be swarmed with support and love this coming Saturday? Only time will tell and I am so nervous but excited to find out.
Today I went all the way (across the street) to Pansies to get some pictures. The store is just busting at the seams with flowers, plants and gardening needs. Sometimes I find myself just starting at the store from my front window drooling over all the things I could buy to put in my garden. I'm already eyeballing my $20+ worth of stuff.

| Honestly, these hanging baskets are stunning. And I'm not a big hanging basket person. |
 |
| Pretty flowers. |
 |
| Long rows of beautiful flowers. |

| Want to plant wisconsin natives, they have a section so you don't have to do the guess work. |

Oh, and if you are hungry while shopping, Pansies has a brat fry going on that day too.
So come on, people, lets make this Project: Buy Local event awesome! Saturday, May 12th... Tell your friends! Tell your neighbors! Heck, tell complete strangers!
Boo I did not get a flyer. BUT it's okay since I saw it on here :)
ReplyDeleteI was hoping I made it to your house (clearly I have no idea where you live except you are 2 or so blocks from me)... :( Sorry! The 500 flyers sure went fast... I may need more next time. I hope you can make it to Pansies on Saturday. They are having an awesome sale.
ReplyDeleteI'm really nervous and excited too! I just want it to be a great day for you. And you know what? No matter what the actual financial outcome or anything at Pansies, I know this project will have raised awareness about the concept and I'm positive the Pansies people loved the attention and the effort you've put forth. I just think it's so cool!
