Here we go!

Welcome Back to Sunnyside!
The snow hasn’t melted yet and the irascible Punxsutawney Phil saw his unwelcome shadow, predicting another six weeks of winter, but the staff here at Sunnyside is excited about spring. We are anticipating another great year, catching up with each other and looking forward to seeing our fabulous customers again. 2010 is shaping up to be an exciting year for gardening, with a slew of first time gardeners coming in with plans for edible gardens and an exciting collection of new winter hardy perennials and shrubs to spice up the landscape.
March finds us hunkered down in our greenhouses, potting up perennials from plugs and bare root for the coming season. A typical scene involves Todd driving dirt in with the loader, JR carefully potting a bare root Astilbe, Mike at his desk tireless ordering all the plants that will soon make our now spare lot a lush garden center, and general laughter and merriment abound around the potting table. Feel free to stop by and help us get a jump start on spring!
March is also when Sunnyside does the majority of its seasonal hiring. If you’re looking for a great job, working outdoors with great people then Sunnyside could be the place for you. Come in and ask any of our friendly staff for an application or download one online.
