With fall at our doorstep, i’m still  incredulous that summer has come to an end.  The crisp fall mornings are merely a reminder of the days ahead.  We can’t plead with autumn so we may as well embrace it before winter starts creeping in. We invite you to promote pride and camaraderie among your neighbors, beautify the neighborhood and have a chance to win a $50. Cedar Grove Gardens gift certificate to use for your winter purchases here at the shop. Enter our fall front porch contest and let autumn add the color!  Create a welcoming entry with all that nature has to offer. Rustic crates, baskets, mum plants and pumpkins are just a few inspirational ideas that can be combined with simple home decor  (and of course can be purchased here at the shop but definitely not required). Chairs with comfortable toss pillows and an accent table with a mum plant is the perfect setting for entertaining during crisp fall evenings or just for taking a minute to relax…pass the sweet tea please.

Themes are welcome, maybe your porch could be country style…or better yet, Cedar Grove Style!!
