“To Plant a Garden is to Believe in Tomorrow” 

 

March 27, 2020

This quote from Audrey Hepburn sums up what we believe at Soares Flower Garden Nursery.

As we approach our traditional opening on the first day of spring, we realize that this spring will be different.  We know how much we all want to get our hands in the dirt and after much consideration, we have decided to open. Everyone’s well being is our top priority. We will be enacting some new procedures and shopping experiences to keep our customers and staff safe.  To that end we will be implementing the following procedures:

  • We will be keeping our cash registers, phones, countertops, door knobs and equipment sanitized on an ongoing basis throughout the day.  Cashiers will be wearing gloves and wash hands throughout the day.
  • We will be practicing responsible social distancing – this will be hard! We love our customers and often greet you with hugs.  For now we will wave, air elbow bump or offer a simple Namaste to greet you.
  • We encourage the use of credit or debit cards instead of cash to avoid handling money.

We will also be implementing in-store shopping alternatives:  Pictures of fresh stock that has arrived will be posted on Facebook, Instagram and our website.  You can call the nursery or send us an email of what you would like. We will pull your order and you can pay for it over the phone with a credit card. You can then drive into the parking lot, call when you arrive and we can load it into your car so you can be on your way home to garden.  Think of us as your “personal plant shoppers”! Deliveries can also be arranged.

You can go to www.soaresflowergardennursery.com for up to date information on current products or like and follow on Facebook and Instagram.

If you wish to shop in our outside sales area, please practice social distancing and we can ring you up without having to come into the checkout shed.

Pansies and perennials are already in stock as well as seed starting supplies and soil amendments.  Nothing feeds our soul and brings us joy like gardening! So enjoy the fresh air in your garden, feel the sun on your face, dig in the soil and plant for the future.

We look forward to being a source of peace and calm for you.
