Black Friday? No thanks…I do “Green Friday”!

November 21, 2012

Terrariumornament2Over the last couple of years I decided that at the garden center I run, North Haven Gardens in Dallas, we weren't going to call it "Black Friday" anymore. I decided "Green Friday" was much more fitting. So before I wish you a happy Thanksgiving, I'll just say that maybe you should consider staying out of the "black" on Friday and try a little green for a change. Hit up your local independent garden center for fresh American grown Christmas trees and fresh greens, blooming gift plants, daffodil bulbs for the garden, tiny terrariums, fragrant pansies and violas...you name it. At NHG, we'll have warm cider and cookies out for you too, plus plenty of parking. Go "Green" this Friday and stay away from the crazy! Oh, and Happy Thanksgiving!
