After nearly nine days closed due to severe storm damage, Kelly’s Garden Sense Greenhouse is open again—and celebrating with a major Storm Sale to thank the community that helped make a quick recovery possible.

The July storm tore the roof from the main retail greenhouse, damaged pottery, destroyed countless plants, and left a big mess behind. But with the support of friends, family, and local businesses, Kelly’s Garden Sense reopened on July 31 and is now back to serving customers during summer hours: Monday–Friday 7 a.m.– 2 p.m., Saturday 9 a.m.– 1 p.m.

“From lending equipment to bringing lunch and sweet treats, this community wrapped its arms around us,” said owner Kelly Meyer-Moeder. “We are beyond grateful for every single person who stepped in to help us get back on our feet.”

Kelly’s Garden Sense extends heartfelt thanks to Mark Guthrie of Guthrie Signs for providing a 60-ft boom truck, Paul Pack for donating a bucket truck for Kelly’s husband Paul Moeder to use, Howard Meyer (Kelly’s father) for the scissors lift, her father-in-law for the extension ladder, and to Ellen Mermis and Allie Cartwright, and her Freaking Delicious Cheesecakes and cookies, for bringing food and treats to keep spirits high.

Storm Sale Specials:

● Plants starting at $1

● Up to 65% off trees & select shrubs

● 40% off all pottery

● 50% off pond plants “Each day is blooming with new potential,” Kelly added. “We’re thankful for the support that carried us through the storm—and for all the happy plant people who continue to shop local with us.”

Regular hours (Monday– Friday 8 a.m.– 5 p.m., Saturday 9 a.m.– 1 p.m.) will resume the week after Labor Day, weather permitting. With fall inventory already growing, customers can look forward to fresh seasonal pottery, unique plants, and community greenhouse events.
