Greenhouses all around Mirror lake B&B

Rolling Acres is right around the corner from Mirror lake and has many nice annuals and perennials
Nature's Lane is an Amish greenhouse just out of Shipshewana.

The Clear Spring Produce Auction.



I love auctions!!







Last Tuesday I made my rounds to many of the greenhouses that are nearby. Looking at all the new flowers and grasses. Wednesday I went back and bought 10 flats of annuals, grasses and other 4in potted annuals. But today I went to the produce auction they are on Tuesday, Thursdays and some Fridays as well. I bought 14 potted baskets, 8 flats of flowers and 15 potted mums (4" pot) for $138.00. I think that is great, now the weather has to get warmer and drier before I can start planting. Happy day!!

VIEW MY WEB SITE www.mirrorlakebb.com Hello welcome to Mirror Lake Bed and Breakfast my name is Kathy Fought. I am the owner of Mirror Lake Bed and Breakfast I also own a beauty salon. My husband's name is Jed he and his brother Jim are the owners and operators of Hog Back Hill Holstein. They are dairy and crop farmers we live on a 150 acre farm in northeastern Indiana and we are surrounded by Amish farmers.I enjoy working in my garden or one of my flower beds. Jed and I were both 10 year 4-her's and so were all three of the kids. Our favorites were showing sheep and contest horses we went to MANY show. I also enjoy riding horses we are lucky to have many trails through the woods or work in an arena. We enjoy the rustic, private and peaceful atmosphere, paddle boat rides, fishing, setting around the campfire and watching beautiful sun sets on Mirror Lake. Coming to Mirror lake is more then a destination.... it’s an awaking a life style almost forgotten.
