Gro ‘n Sell, partnering breeders spread happiness with plant donations
Gro ‘n Sell, a wholesale plant grower, recently brought joy by donating its surplus plants from the Cultivate trade show to several charities. The plants were donated with the approval of the many breeders who partner with Gro ‘n Sell.
Thanks to our breeder partners Terra Nova Nurseries, Syngenta Flowers, Danziger, Kientzler, Sakata Ornamentals, American Takii, Dümmen Orange, Suntory Flowers and All-America Selections.
“We are incredibly grateful to our partner breeders who were happy to share their plants,” said Dave Eastburn, Gro ‘n Sell. “Their support allowed us to turn what would have been surplus into a source of joy for others.”
One of the main recipients was First Fruits Farm in Freeland, Maryland, a nonprofit that grows and donates fresh produce to those in need. The farm received a large donation of plants, which they are using to create planters for people facing challenging circumstances.
“We are making planters that our different groups decide who to bless with them,” said a farm coordinator at First Fruits Farm. “Recipients include a newly diagnosed cancer patient, residents of group homes, someone who was paralyzed and a person whose parent recently passed away. Thank you for this lovely donation to help brighten up people’s spirits.”
This donation highlights Gro ‘n Sell’s dedication to community and the power of collaboration within the industry to create a positive impact.
