THE GUIDE TO BOERNE BLUEBONNET VIEWING 🪻

Where to Catch the State Flower

Yesterday, we spotted our first few bluebonnet blooms of the season. With a little luck, it won’t be long before fields will start looking like the photo above.

But where can you go around town for the best bluebonnet views? We’ve put together a guide featuring all the spots we’ve found bluebonnet patches over the last several years.

Think you might want to get some bluebonnet portraits? This guide is sponsored by Katrina Spain Photography. Katrina is offering bluebonnet photo mini-sessions for families, couples, maternity… even dogs! You can learn more about her offerings here.

➡️You can read the viewing guide here.

FETCH & FRISKERS CLOSING BOERNE LOCATION 🐕

Fair Oaks Location Will Remain Open

Sad news for pet lovers who live in town—Fetch & Friskers is closing their Boerne location and will be consolidating into their Fair Oaks location instead.

They’ve been a go-to spot for high-quality pet supplies and grooming services, so if you’re a regular, be sure to stop by their Fair Oaks store to continue supporting this great local business.
