April 28th, 2024 10:58 am

 Weather channel has reduced the chance for rain down to 6 and 8 percent.  Looks like a breeze, 50 degree day and we will be open all day.

If plans change, we will immediately post here.

According to the weather channel it appears the rain chances on Sunday begin to diminish by 3:00 pm.  I would love to complain about the rain but I just can't do it.  The drought over the past few years has caused us grief and the rain will too BUT I must say I'll take the rain over the drought any day.

We plan to be open on Sunday during regular hours 9a to 7p but if it is pouring rain we may close to allow the property to drain.  If we close we will immediately post here and you are always welcome to call Kelli or me and ask what the conditions are.  Our phone numbers are found on the contact page.

You are always welcome to bring your mucking boots and umbrella!

We will be closing at 6:00 pm today.  We will open on Sunday April 28th, at 9:00 am.

April 27th, 2024 9:00 am

 All locations are open today.  Check the web site www.bumpuppot.com and the location tabs found across the top of the page for hours open.

As far as I can tell from monitoring the weather channel app, it appears the rain chances will start around 5:00.  I can tell you it was much warmer at 7:00 am than it is now at 9:00 am.  All locations will be open all day AND WE WILL POST ON THIS BLOG IF THOSE PLANS CHANGE.

I can tell you this: If we get a notification on our phone that there is hail in our vicinity and coming our way, we will cover our plants to protect them.  Yesterday, a warning was issued for 60 mph winds and quarter size hail and as I was rolling covers, some lady tried to lift it back up.  I understand people drive a distance to get here but I must cover and protect our crop.  If a warning is issued you must leave and find protection because you, me, my wife, and my help will not stay here for all of our safety.

Weather channel shows our greatest chance of rain in Shelton to be the 2:00 to 5:00 window.  We have had ample rain in Shelton over night and there will be some standing water at the Shelton location so I strongly advise you to wear your mucking boots or whatever you call them.  I would also pack an umbrella just in case this rare rain event would continue.  I will not under any circumstances cuss the rain as we have needed it for many, many months.

Odessa locations and Aurora locations are all on concrete - shop till you drop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Odessa location: Open 10 am to 7:00 pm

Aurora location: Open 8:00 am to 6:00 pm

Shelton location: Open 9:00 am to 7:00 pm

April 25, 2024

Posting at 7:00 am on Thursday morning, April 25.

With the rain chances this week and into the weekend we will plan to be open at all times, HOWEVER, if it pours rain that results in standing water in our facility we may close for 30 minutes to allow it to filter out of the store.  We will update with all changes to our hours open.

Thanks for your understanding.

Saturday April 20th, 2024

Opening for the thirty-third year on April 20th, 2024.  Today, the Shelton location will open at 10:00 am due to the freeze warning that has been issued.
