Sacred Hollow is a you-pick flower farm 3 miles west of our house on highway 264. It’s right across the street from Vanzant’s fruit market. You’ll pass both places on the way to our house. I love it SO much! The flowers are plentiful and beautiful. You can cut your flowers there and then bring them back to the house to arrange. I absolutely adore this place and its owners. I hope you find time to visit.

The Grove is a cRaZy aMaZiNg comedy club—and NWA’s only one! About 10 minutes away from our place, you have GOT to check it out. They are able to snag some of the hottest comedians on the circuit, including the big names! Two shows a night, and great food and drinks. My choice is always a burger and fries and a Moscow Mule. Can’t recommend this place enough.
