🌄 Destination of the Week

Crabtree Farms (Chattanooga, TN)
This week I stopped by Crabtree Farms and picked up some new plants 🌱. It’s one of Chattanooga’s gems — a nonprofit farm that focuses on local food, sustainability, and building community. Whether you’re looking for fresh produce, seasonal plants, or just want to enjoy a stroll around the farm, it’s always worth a visit.
