First Saturday, April 6: Hobbit House
The Brothers Greenhouse
3200 SW Victory Dr., Port Orchard, WA
While this is a very nice nursery and greenhouse, the main attraction is the hobbit house built on the grounds by the owners.
We'll meet at 10 am in the parking lot. Carpools are encouraged as it is a bit of a drive. There are no places to eat nearby, so if you'd like to stay to eat together, please bring a bag lunch.
