Winter Storm Leon

We, along with the rest of Georgia, have been visited by Winter Storm Leon. Thankfully, we are no where near the mess that is going on in Atlanta and the Metro Area right now. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the men, women and children stuck on the freeways overnight as well as the children stuck on buses and the teachers, parents and children stuck at schools overnight. Well, everyone affected by this storm. We hope everyone gets home safely soon! 

I wanted to share some photos of winter weather and our dog Waylon enjoying the snow!

        Waylon, he's not ready to go back inside!

                              Stay Warm!

Snow, Snow and more Snow!

Burrrr it's cold up here in Suches Georgia right now! Winter Storm 'Leon' is making its way through Georgia and we're feeling it. A little snow doesn't stop us though! Here are a couple of photos of Suches today as well as a photo of what we're working in....but the key here is we are STILL working it! 

                         Still Working Hard!

We hope the weather is being good to you and that you and your family are staying warm! 

Another Step Closer!

We are getting ready to pour the cement foundation for our greenhouses! No Arctic Blast is going to stop us! 

Construction Zone!

We are clearing the way for some brand new greenhouses here at High Valley Ginseng!

Things are moving along slowly but surely for our new green houses.

For those of you not familiar with Suches, GA; we are at a higher elevation in the North Georgia Mountains so that means we get a lot colder and a lot more snow and ice than our fellow Georgians just a few miles south. We are just north of Dahlonega Georgia and the folks there have a saying, "It's snowing in Suches and headed this way". Ha ha ha! Now, that's not always the case, sometimes it snows in Suches and stays in Suches and snows some more! So far that is what 2014 has brought us. BUT, that doesn't stop us from putting on our long johns and rolling up our sleeves and getting to work!

We are EXCITED about the Spring and work is never done when you're in this business!

I wanted to share a few of our construction in process photos as well as a couple of the beautiful winter wonderland we've been seeing so far this year! Enjoy!
