OUR STORY

Pot O’ Greens, a hobby that started five years ago, has blossomed into a thriving business. Gardening, initially a way to unwind and escape life’s stresses, ignited a passion within me. Growing a crop of collard greens brought immense joy and pride, fueling my determination to expand my gardening endeavors. With the support of my sister, I constructed three raised garden beds and introduced a variety of vegetables, herbs, and flowers. This experience awakened a sense of purpose within me, realizing that this was my true calling.

 

The world around us is adorned with plants, from floral prints in fabrics and notebooks to lush landscapes and potted plants. While we often overlook these green wonders, their absence would significantly diminish the inviting nature of our environments. Inspired by this observation, I embarked on a journey of rescuing discarded plants from big box stores and landscapers, challenging myself to revive them. The desire to share this transformative experience led to the birth of Pot O’ Greens.

 

Owning a business brings me immense fulfillment, and I find great satisfaction in providing a service that truly resonates with people. Pot O’ Greens’ vision is to deliver beautiful, robust, and healthy plants to homes, businesses, and landscapes across the city and beyond. Our mission is to inspire individuals to embrace plant cultivation, allowing them to experience the numerous benefits that plants offer in our daily lives. Plants have a profound impact on women’s advancement. Caring for them requires nurturing, which is the very foundation of a woman’s being. Additionally, plants contribute to a healthier work-life balance. They have psychological benefits, such as reducing stress, alleviating symptoms of depression, enhancing productivity, and improving concentration in our work environments.

 

A significant portion of my customers are women, which has led to the term “Plant Mom” being coined. I actively promote the learning of plant care and growth among women, empowering them to nurture their “Plant Babies.” In support of breast cancer awareness month, we will be selling pink plants in October.

 

I’m confident you’ll be satisfied with the plants and accessories we provide.  Thank for choosing Pot O’ Greens.  We look forward to serving you!
