New garden and design center opens
Location:
7405 Rosedale Highway,
Bakersfield, CA
Green Twig Nursery Garden and Design Center has opened at 7405 Rosedale Highway between Patton Way and Henry Lane. The one-acre nursery has seven employees and eventually will have a retail store, said Bunny Merchant, a designer there. Merchant said she’s “nervous, but more hopeful than nervous” about a new nursery’s prospects in the current housing market. “Our perspective on it is that people are traveling less, and instead of going somewhere they’re going to put that money into their homes to beautify them and make them look like they’re on vacation somewhere,” Merchant said. The nursery’s owner is John Gamby. It opened for business April 11. 1 comments from 1 users

I saw this business the other day as I was driving on Rosedale. I was surprised to see a new nursery opening, but I am of course hopeful of its success. I only shop at locally owned nurseries (not box store nurseries) and I plan to buy something from Green Twig to give them my support.
