  Hello!!  I hope everybody had a great Memorial Day Holiday!  I just want to let you all know that we have enough plant material left to have a “1 More Day Sale”.  Despite numerous trials and tribulations this spring, thanks to all our customers, we have enjoyed our MOST SUCCESSFUL SPRING SALE EVER!!!   We are very grateful for the continued support of so many loyal customers and all the new ones we get every season.

  We will be open this coming Thursday June 2nd to close out the sale, from  8:00 – 3:00 (yes, closing 1 hour earlier than we have been).  All items remaining will be 50% off (except the $1 & $2 items again).  We may even knock a extra buck or two off some things.  Selections are limited to what is up there in the greenhouses.  I have very little remaining in the growing range, although there may be a handful of items coming up yet.  So, please come on over Thursday and pick up some things that are still going to be very nice…may just need a little TLC, fertilizer, and time to become fabulous.

Hope to see you Thursday!

​

Thank You!

​​P.P.S. With this growth and expansion of our services, we are also pleased to announce a new cooperative partnership. Due to COVID affecting us all, the ability to have RCCF inmates working within the Nursery had to be stopped. The energy and assistance these guys brought to the program was so missed by customers and our staff! With COVID still being a challenge, this season we will begin work with RS EDEN.  A leading local non-profit, RS EDEN provides assistance with re-entry services and post incarceration opportunities for both male and female clients.  Individuals who have been assigned community service and “sentenced to serve” hours from the courts, will have the opportunity to fulfill those hours at the RCCF Nursery.  It is exciting for us to have the help and be assisting in the development of work habits and routines again.  RS EDEN is honored to have the opportunity to offer their clients a new and different productive day option.
