US (MN): Dulut greenhouse gearing up for warmer days ahead
“Here, it just seems like everybody’s happy,” says Jennifer Couillard, owner of Spring at Last Greenhouse.
“Most of the stuff that’s grown here is suited for this area,” Couillard explains. “That’s why we like to grow things from seed here and not ship in a bunch of stuff from Mexico or Texas, where it’s warm. So the stuff that we have here is suited for this weather.”
But this hasn’t been her job for long; she left the dental field to take over ownership of Cummings Greenhouse – now known as Spring at Last – just about a year ago.
“We’re pretty well known for our geraniums,” Couillard said. “We have some of the best geraniums in town. And our baskets do very well, especially with Mothers’ Day coming up.”
It’s a decision that’s already brought a lot of good feelings for Jennifer and her family.
