I am looking forward to working with the Habitat for Humanity and LaPorte Co. Master Gardeners Association this year. We have so much space at the landscape nursery - and because we arrange our perennials, shrubs and trees in the retail space like we would for landscaping, it just seemed like an easy tool for the groups to use for helping those with their first yards. I attended a Habitat for Humanity "First Yard" seminar this spring and was very impressed at how organized and helpful the group was/is. Earning a reputation as the nursery guy who says "No" has brought back many clients and propagated new ones, so my hope is to be able to assist the groups when they bring the new home owners in to understand why certain plants go in certain spots.
Should be a fun year!
