Natureworks was started by Nancy DuBrule in 1983. With $500 and an old orange Datsun truck, Nancy began taking care of gardens in the Branford area. Within a year, Natureworks opened a retail store in a converted gas station in Stony Creek. In 1990, Natureworks moved to Rt. 22 in Northford. An older home was converted to the garden center, surrounded by organic demonstration gardens. Natureworks now employs up to 25 people during the growing season including landscape, retail, and office staff.

Hey, Nancy! It did indeed work. Way to go! May I add your blog as a link on my own blog?
ReplyDeleteI so look forward to getting my Natureworks e-mails, and now I can look forward to reading your blog posts as well.
Hope you are staying dry today....
Hugs,
Bubbles
Bubbles! Hello! Of course you can link to my blog. I am on a huge learning curve here and you are the first to reply. Nancy
ReplyDeleteOK; I added you to my blogroll. I'm still figuring things out in the blogosphere myself. Great idea to tie your blog to Facebook -- that's how I knew you had a new post (the one about the maple tree).
ReplyDeleteI think you're really going to enjoy blogging, if you can find the time for it, that is. ;-D
