The Mexia Garden Club is proud to award the Civic Pride Award to Cedar Isle Ranch owned by Patty Manley. The Bradford Fruitless Pear Trees around the swimming pool put on their beautiful blossoms to let everyone know that spring is near. The roses are beginning to cover the rose bushes. Hay always available for the cows. The hay is grown on the ranch in the spring and summer. Then cut and baled for the cows in the winter. Water conservation is always on the mind of the owner as they have no city water to rely on. They are their own water system which is a whole other story. Cedar Isle Ranch is a member of the Mexia Chamber of Commerce and pays Mexia ISD school taxes.
After a cold winter, thereÕs often nothing better than the arrival of spring. From the moment those first crocuses and tulips peek their heads out of the soil to the days of cherry blossoms in full bloom, spring is a time of sunshine, warmth and a renewed sense of vitality.
