Q: What is your favorite small retail business or pop-up vendor to support?
A: Barrels & Branches Nursery is a unique and beautiful place to purchase plants and other gardening supplies. They organize by type of plants, but in a way that makes you feel like you’re walking through a garden. And even though they don’t have a giant selection, they have very unique plants, and they’re in really good shape.
