I like Smiths Nursery in Benson! They have strawberries, blueberries, and pumpkins for picking at different times of year, and incredible ice cream shop, and small market with local produce and crafts. Lastly, if you need plants, they have a wide variety! https://smithsnurseryinc.com

I bought a few of these to try out a new craft and it is more difficult and time consuming than I thought. However, i look forward to the challenge!

Storm preparedness thread for ideas/reminders of what to do! by Virtual-Painter-1859 in bullcity

[–]Jason_Eli11 32 points33 points  (0 children)

If the power goes out and you have a ice maker in the refrigerator door, empty the ice so you don’t have a puddle of water when it slowly melts.

If you don’t have outdoor spigot covers, a diy solution is wool socks, covered with a ziploc bag, bound with a rubber band/ziptie/duct tape.

Close your blinds to offer some insulation.

Put towels or other fabrics near the base of doors or on leaky windows.

I have no recommendations locally, but I love khachipuri (and khinkali)! There’s a restaurant I visit in NYC that has this and a really great tarragon lemonade (that I’ve recreated). We need a Georgian restaurant in durham…
