history

The Growing Gifts shop has come a long way from its origins. Starting in 1988, seven temporary gift shops were set up during annual flower shows and special events. These gift shops were run entirely with volunteer support and help from the Olbrich Garden Club. The money earned by these occasional shops was used to purchase the original inventory of the Growing Gifts shop as we know it now.

The Growing Gifts shop moved to its present location in 1990, and added a few paid staff positions. However, it is the efforts of a wonderfully committed and responsible group of volunteers (including many from the original team) who keep the Growing Gifts shop open daily.
