We hope that everyone had a wonderful holiday. That everyone was able to enjoy and appreciate time spent with friends and family. For us, (except during a cough cough snowstorm) the week after Christmas is quiet. The store is closed and we’re able to take some time to reflect on the past season, and improvements […]
As we’ve all come to realize, (no surprise as New Englanders) Mother Nature has decided we get snow early this year. We had many calls about fall clean-ups and getting them done before the snow flies. This isn’t always easy or possible to accomplish. We have a limited crew at times, and are responsible for […]

One of my favorite things to do this time of year is to read a good farming book to get me brainstorming, sit down with a nice cup of coffee and […]
Hi Folks! We always get the question around this time of year, “How late can I plant?” Based on our experience in landscaping, we are able to plant up until the ground is no longer workable. For our area that means into November-weather permitting. Planting in the spring or the fall is a great time. You can weigh your options based […]

The name of the game this week is nursery stock. We’ve been busy unloading and setting up all of our nursery stock around the yard. Looking for something in particular? Give us a call or stop by! We have some beautiful weeping cherries and forsythia in bloom, as well as a huge assortment of evergreens […]
The word of the week is SPACING! Along with our plantings, we’ve been spacing in the greenhouses (GH#7, GH#3 and soon in GH#2). It’s important to space our plants so they have room to grow nice and full without competing against each other. If they have to compete, they become leggy and undesirable. We’re also […]
