NEW DATES SET for the 5th Annual Backroads & ByWays Junkin Tour

New on the tour
Bochner Farms

I'm working on marketing and promo today for the upcoming 5th Annual Back-roads & By Ways Junkin Tour. The date, which usually runs the first F/S in June had been MOVED TO JULY 17/18TH due to C19. Please click on the link to go to the EVENT PAGE and mark your interest, so you'll get updates as the time gets closer. Many of the venues are outside and all but two are in Warren County, Iowa. The two that are not, are just over the line.

You'll enjoy the great rolling countryside of our area, explore new venues, and feel at home with those that have been on the tour since it started four years ago.  

The MAP will look different! But, you'll not be disappointed, I'm certain. Plan to spend the day...or better yet, the weekend in Warren County Iowa. There are several unique places to stay, too!  #wanderwarrencounty #bbjt #bbjtjuly17182020 #backroadsandbywaysjunkintour #warrencountytourism #bochnerfarms

Hey! It's been awhile, but I'm Inspired to get this up and going again.

Gosh, how is it that life can consume you and before long, months to years pass.  Crazy, crazy, crazy!

But, I do have some things to say, so I'm inspired to get back at it.  Sooner, rather than later, I hope😎😎😎  I have been clearing my calendar, to get to do more of what I love.  And, those things are my writing, creating and the biggest part of my 💗 are my five grandchildren.  I, and the hubs, take such great joy in their presence.  It's a remarkable feeling!

As I write this, it's three weeks away from my season OPENER for Burlap & Roses at Crooked Hedge Farm.  I'm gathering new merchandise up, cleaning and clearing out, moving things around...all for YOU...to stop and shop with me on June 7th and 8th, 10:00-5:00.  Shabby, primitives, barn and farm, linens, furniture, cabinets, industrial, garden, rustic, signs, vintage, clothing, home decor, decor, doors, dishes, and more.

We'll be a STOP on the 3rd Annual Backroads & By-Ways Junkin' Tour, which runs from St. Mary's to Osceola, Iowa and points in between.  10 unique shops, pop-up and occasional sales, as well as, a couple great eating spots.  

We hope you will plan to join us on this special weekend in 

south-central Iowa, just about 40 miles south of West Des Moines, Iowa 

or 40 miles north of the Missouri line on Interstate 35.  

How's your spring going?  I hope this finds you doing well.  Please share my blog with your family and friends...I'd greatly appreciate it!

If you'd be so kind, I'd appreciate your feedback, so please leave a comment and remember to share and help me spread the word.  Thanks!

All the best,

Beth
