Another successful year at the 2019 Trade Secrets outdoor Garden Vendor Market Show!
We finally had beautiful sunny weather this year! The last couple years it was raining, so we were so blessed to see the sun this year! Thank you to all who came out to see us again this year! We were so excited to introduce you to our new product - daffodil garden stakes! They were a big hit - and so many of you rounded them up for your gardens! So exciting to listen to how you all love our products and how you are using them in your own gardens! :) We wish you all a successful 2019 gardening year! Come back and see us again next year! Here are some pictures of this years event!
