It’s that time of year! Have you noticed the monarchs?

Come by Sycamore Sundays this Sunday anytime between 11-3 at 1900 Dutch Oven Road to see monarch chrysalises and monarchs ready for release (if the timing is right).

There will be a self-guided monarch coffee filter craft as well (any age can participate 😉). Make a little time to relax while you color, check out .snacks for lunch, and the wonderful vendors on site selling books, pottery, stationery, and clothing.
