Exotic plants take root on US 68 – Yellow Springs News | Yellow Springs, Ohio: "When a group of plant enthusiasts took over the Village property on U.S. 68 North that was formerly the home of Stutzman’s Nursery, the weeds were so high that the property’s dozen greenhouses were barely visible above them. After four months of clearing eight acres of weeds and debris, repairing greenhouses and formulating a business plan, a new company — Yellow Springs Botanicals — has been born.
The green thumbs behind the vision are Mitch George, owner of Village Greenery, Kyle Lewis, an Antioch College landscaper, and Erin Currier, a social worker in Springfield, all Yellow Springs residents who want to share their love of plants. As they continue to clean up the site, which has lain fallow for two years, the new company’s principals are also looking for funds to seed their new rare and exotic plants business, with hopes of opening by next spring."
