Sightings from The Little Herb House

You know when you travel through a neighborhood with a name like Tall Oaks or Lake View only to find there isn’t an oak or lake in sight? Well, The Little Herb House is kinda like that – yes, there are plenty of herbs, but it ain’t little.  In fact, its down right big.

In 2001, Lisa Treadaway, the proprietress of The Little Herb House, founded her family’s herb farm.  Lisa carved out a 10,000 square foot garden in the family’s existing horse farm,  featuring eight different herbal themes.  It is a sight to behold.  There are some my sightings from various visits.
