This was a nice little surprise. If you hit the day right, you will get to see them make some neat goodies. If not, well try and buy what you can & ship the rest! I still order from them. More

The kids love to take the tour and at the end get a piece of chocolate. During the Christmas season they decorate the cactus garden. More
