Hey, I live in Valatie and at some point we'll need to meet. Your maybe a half hour or so from me. My wife might not like it that I have access to more orchids year round but I will

Congratulation , wishing you lot of clients & great business.
I have a few questions:
- is the location a busy one w/ lot of pedestrian trafic?
-Should the windows be a little bit more enticing?

 

[tocarmar]

Ross,
Yes, I would like to get together with other growers/hobbyists ect. & put on some shows ect. because there really isn't any shows around here. NYC's was cancelled & Albany I think has 1 a year.

Bob,
Yes we will have to meet. I am at the store everyday this week or call me 518-929-3412.

Hein,
I am working on the sign for the window. I have to get permits ect.
There is alot of both ped. & vehicle traffic, I am on the main road that leads to Main St. The high school is just down the road.

Good luck with the business. Hope all those mums and dads taking their kids to school are drawn into the addiction and buy loads of plants from you!!

 

[NYEric]

Good Luck. I recommend you get some plants and flyers to the cushy stores in Woodstock also!

Good luck! A labor of love.
