11:45 AM-3:30 PMPLANTING OPEN HOUSE

PICK. Come on in to our cozy warm Greenhouse and select from a variety of hearty plugs. We will provide you with a 10”, 12” or 14” drop-in container, or you can bring your own container.

PLANT. Once you have selected your plugs - Joan Mazat from Ball Seed and our professional designers will help you create the perfect container. You can either plant yourself -- or we can do it for you (we do not mind getting our hands dirty!).

PARK. This is the neat part...in our Greenhouse we have set aside a space for our program participants where you can “park” your container for the remaining winter time. Our team will care for and nurture your container until it is ready to go home with you in the Spring!

Material fees include drop-in container and professional potting soil (10” $11.00, 12” $13.00, 14” $15.00). Plugs range anywhere from $2.50-$4.50 each (a 25% savings).

Please call 847.359.1182 or email us at info@kinschflorist.com
