During a recent visit to Green Door Nursery, after strolling through all the lovely plants and pottery, we made our selection of succulents and added them to a wagon. We stopped to ask for assistance from one of the employees. After explaining the best care for a few of our plants, we made our way to the checkout counter. While there, we came across some intricately designed painted rocks.
As we discussed how beautiful the rocks were, an employee named Lauri Hauer said, “I painted those.” She explained she creates them; Green Door gives her space to display them and sell them, and that, “Any money I make from their sale goes towards my retirement.” Green Door supports the arts—and their employees—through and through. Go support Lauri’s retirement fund!
