A third Laptop is used as a complete backup to the Main Computer in case of computer failure so not a second is lost in continuing to run the business.  Laser Color Printer, Laser Black and White Printer, Industrial Tag Printer, etc.  Office is set up on a 4 party network.  Internet service provided by Adelphia Cable and is blazingly fast!  Primary Software used: Quickbooks, Filemaker, Microsoft Office, Paint Shop Pro, Taggit Pro.

 

30' x40' warehouse with loading dock. 

 

Workshop (approx. 50' x 22') which connects the propagating house to 2 of the retail houses.   

 

All Plant Inventory, which varies by season, and includes field grown material.  At the peak of Spring, inventory would run around 100,000 quart pots for Perennials, 18,000 quart pots of shrubs, for example, plus larger pots of shrubs and trees, plus annuals and Tender Perennials.   Late Fall/Early Winter would find high inventory in plug trays for potting.  Specific rough estimates can be made at any given time depending on the season.  Inventory varies less than you might expect because we produce most of our own plants, so as plants sell, we produce more so the plant count doesn't vary so much but the size container or their stage of growth may simply vary.

 

(The potential new owner does NOT need to propagate plants but can buy material in from several excellent wholesale growers that we do business with.  We just happen to like propagating!)

 

2 strong wells plus ability to pump from the spring-fed pond make water a non-issue, even during drought. During the droughts of 2000-2002, we were never pressed at all for water.  

 

Approximately 14 acres currently not in use both open area on the highway and woodland area at the rear of the property. (Wide open market for expanding in a number of different areas, including  as a re-wholesale yard for landscapers.)  The front property is available for future development of the nursery or for sale to other businesses.  Our location is one of the fastest growing areas in the region.  The rear property has potential for sale for residences.

 

Located on a major highway and 3 miles from another major 4 lane highway and major development.  

 

Close to a rapidly expanding medical/technical park and near rapid housing construction.  

 

A loyal, dependable customer base that is increasing by leaps and bounds with our Internet connection.
