Why Small Businesses Matter

Shop small, do big things for your community

Why Small Businesses Matter puts a spotlight on the local merchants who donate their time, talent, goods, and services for the betterment of our community. The shop local movement spreads virally as local businesses who are “tagged” have the opportunity to share their story!

You're IT PetrowGardens Landscape Design!

Three questions with Jay Petrow, owner of PetrowGardens.

Why did you start your business?

I started my business to pursue my passion for landscape design and have the freedom to work according to my own schedule. Being an independent small business keeps me in touch with all aspects of the business including marketing, customer service, operations, strategy, and creative design development.

 Best selling product/service? 

We sell landscape designs and installations. Trees for screening are very popular as well as many grasses and perennials for color throughout the season.

How many people do you employ? Any youth or seniors from the community?

We employ two laborers and hire local high school and college kids during the summer.

 - How many local businesses do you use to support your business (products and services) and can you name them? I use local masonry supply stores such as Gault and O & G for many of my projects. I also use other local subcontractors for tree removal, fencing, masonry work, construction and excavation. Miguel's Fence Company. Nature's Way Landscape, Agnaldo Masonry and Construction.
