So Much to Love About this West Suburban Plant Shop
Nature.
It certainly has a funny way of grounding us. Don’t you think?
We pick up on so many subtle cues from Mother Earth. Plants remind us to: trust the process, enjoy the journey, believe in tomorrow, find reassurance in new beginnings, keep growing, plant ‘seeds’… and be reminded that nothing.exists.alone.
Alone.
Do you think that’s why so many young adults invest time and resources in houseplants? In fact, houseplants surged in popularity during the pandemic. Whether you were innately blessed with a green thumb, plants & flowers have a palpable effect on our wellbeing. It’s the way they look, feel and smell. Bright greens invoke feelings of cheerfulness and relaxation. And research suggests plants are mood-boosting and restorative - simply put: they make us happy and healthy.
If you’re in the market for some new leafy friends this Spring, we’ve got just the place - Grow Geneva! GG is a charming plant shop in downtown Geneva; offering an assortment of planty goodness, plant accessories, gifts and party favors. Upcoming March classes include: Watercolor Roses, Spring Hat Embroidery, Houseplant 101, Houseplant 201 and Macrame Shelf. And don’t miss out on its Monthly Plant Club!
As we continue to spend more-and-more time indoors, it’s only natural to crave pieces of nature inside! Notably, there is a huge biophilic movement in the commercial design industry - clients, employees and designers all understand the importance of connectivity. May we continue to inspire those spaces where we work, live and play.
