October 1st marks the second anniversary of the opening of The Blue Door Garden Store. Since then, store owner Kay Faught has expanded the store to carry artwork by local artists and has increased the selection of Felco and Fiskars inventory along with a wide variety of unique garden tools and garden statuary. She also carries the full line of “Renee’s Garden Seeds” and has added more organic products.
Kay says, “I have tried to listen to the local gardening community and focus on unique, hard to find, quality tools that offer great ergonomic design. It’s also important for me to educate newcomers to the benefits of our local Oregon State Master Gardener program. I’ve been amazed and humbled by the comments and support I have received from this community and from my returning customers! It has been above and beyond what I had hoped.”
Her goal is to stay the course and continue to grow her business. She laughs, “At times I don’t think I can get more items in my store…but then I see a great new garden item and somehow find the room!”
