Top 6 Reasons To Skip the Superstore
Don't get us wrong, we live in the hardware aisle and love the smell of fresh lumber. But superstores are super because they pack their shelves with everything imaginable from everywhere imaginable. Which is great if you're searching for a power tool or a two-by-four, but not so great when you're interested in fresh, beautiful plants and the answers to keep them that way. Here's why coming to Rice's is the real deal:
· It's local! When you buy from Rice's you're buying from local growers. Less fuel to transport, a shorter journey for your trees and plants, healthier plants.
· It's handpicked! Superstores take as much inventory as possible because they only pay for what they sell. We visit our growers (or in many cases, grow on our very own tree farm) and handpick the finest plants for our customers.
· More help! Ask us how to plant, where to plant, or why planting where you did doesn't seem to be working. What is that white scaly stuff on your leaves? How and when should you use those fancy new pruning shears? What type of ground cover would work best around your stepping stones? Simple (and pie-in-the-sky) plans to transform your yard, and free workshops to help you become the yard and garden guru you always knew you could be.
· A face with the name! Shake the hand of someone who has a stake in the success of your yard and garden-today and two years from now. We love what we do!
· More little extras! Free workshops and snapshot gardening consultations. Phone in your birdseed order and we'll meet you at the curb - you don't even have to get out of your car. Customers' appreciation events. Refreshments while you browse. Smiles!
· You'll love it! Who wants to spend money on something they don't absolutely love? You'll love what you buy, how you're treated, and the way your yard an garden look and perform because we'll make sure of it.
