Mulberry season!

Summer fun is in full bloom at Hidden Valley Retreat! Our daughter and her friend were able to come up to the property this weekend. They took advantage of the warm weather and went swimming in the fountain. But most deliciously of all, they picked some home-grown mulberries!

The mulberry tree is one of the oldest at our property. It was planted many years ago by the previous owner, Dr. Bernard Jensen. These days, its boughs hang heavy with ripe, juicy fruit. If you have never had a mulberry, they are the most delicious, sweet, tart, purple berries you could pop in your mouth!

Check out the fun!





sticky fingers!

mulberries taste great with whipped cream!

Spring is in bloom at Hidden Valley

Spring is in full bloom at Hidden Valley!

    We are busy enhancing every aspect of the property in preparation for all of our spring events! We've added several rose bushes and sculptural trees near the wedding stage to create a more romantic setting. Our wheelbarrow plant beds have also begun to bloom with succulents, marigolds, and other spring flower varieties. Our caretakers are busy planting and pruning so everything is in tip-top shape for our guests.

From our flower beds to our new fruit trees, we cannot wait to see what nature has in store for us this season!
