Busy Bee Gardens and Gifts
Vendor
Busy Bee has morphed into what it is now, from sharing our gardens and old family heirloom perennials 3 years ago on our hobby farm in western Powhatan with an ad on Facebook. We have turned my hobby of gardening and collecting family heirloom plants over the last 20 years into a fun side business bring quality plants to our community. After a successful season we built the first greenhouse in August 2019 and did well enough to build the second one in August of 2020 for additional propagation and seed starting. The old basketball court was redesigned to display plants for sale and we continue to add new display areas, raised beds, gardens and now a koi pond to utilize organic methods of gardening like aquaponics. The business is literally "growing" each season!
