Owner Kerrie Yellick told ThisWeekInWorcester.com, “Farming is already a gamble since we are constantly dealing with unpredictable weather patterns, and we are now dealing with a pandemic.”
“But people have been inside. They want to see colors, they want to grow their own, and they want activities with their families,” Yellick said. “I think sales are going to be great. I think people are really going to enjoy this. Gardening is very therapeutic.”
