Snow and Ice Create Havoc at The Experiment

Two days of snow and then freezing rain are causing some concerns at The Experiment.
Almost a foot of snow on Friday followed by freezing rain Saturday morning covered the tree is snow and ice.
 Branches were sagging and needles were frozen solid. It was actually quite pretty, but I was afraid the weight of the ice might break a branch, so I tried to knock some of the ice off. All that did was knock off the needles, so I guess I'll just have to wait and hope things warm up a bit, and let Mother Nature save the day! 
This is a big year for The Experiment. This summer will be our third anniversary, and time for some major decisions about trimming branches. Lets hope we get through this storm without any of those decisions being made for us. 
 
Winter Hours: Because of the inclement weather, we have had to reduce visiting hours at The Experiment. Through the rest of winter we are open 3-5 Tuesday-Friday and noon to 4 on weekends. Be sure to call ahead to schedule your visit because we are sometimes closed for private parties and weddings.
