At last\, the bright emerald blades of sweetgrass stand out before her\, inviting her to harvest them. But she remembers not to pick the first blade she sees\, leaving it to grow for future generations. \nThe story trail at Oak Point Farm is open year-round during daylight hours\, with a new book posted every four to five weeks. Current book titles and dates will be updated on our website.
