b/lima and Brenda Hello, Hillman.
Correspondent Ourdays are getting
shorter or our nights are getting
longer, don't know for sure, but I do
know I miss the sun! We have had an
abundance of crops this year, toma-
toes, apples, and sweet corn! All have
been plentiful. There is a saying that if
we have an exceptional abundance in
the harvest, our winter will be long
and cold. I hope that is just a saying
and not a reality. Michigan is a won-
derful state and our four seasons are
beautiful for the most part, but fight
about the first of March I have had
enough of the white stuff and cold
weather. Let us hope that our winter is
brief, warmer, and provides enough
snow for a great winter vacation for
our snowmobilers and ice fishermen.

LT GREENHOUSE SUPPLY in Hillman offers a variety of organic
growing products.
New business often growing supplies
by YvonneSwuger A new business in
Sloffreporler Hillman will be offering
indoor growing supplies all year. LT Green-
house Supply, located at 230 E. Progress St.,
is owned by Tim LaFleche and Larry Bye.
The business opened July 1 and offers a
variety of products including hobby green-
houses, indoor growing materials and or-
ganic fertilizers.
"There is nothing anywhere close to here
that offers the stuff that I have," Bye said.
Hobby greenhouses, he said, are perfect
for starting an outdoor garden, and there is
enough sun in this area to merit three grow-
ing seasons without supplementing heat
and light.
"You could start growing
in your greenhouse in April
and you could be actually
eating vegetables before
you could even put an out-
side garden in," Bye ex-
plained.

Bye said he and LaFleche are currently
takin, g orders for spring.
"The earlier you get your order in, the

want," Bye said.
