Willey Farms set to reopen garden center

The Townsend, Delaware, property has been closed since a fire ripped through the market and garden center Nov. 5, 2018.


From Delaware Online:

Willey Farms — the garden center and market that was destroyed in a massive fire in the fall of 2018 — will reopen its doors on April 12, the business has announced.

The center will sell hanging baskets, perennials, geraniums, mixed pots, vegetable plants and herbs, among other items in the temporary selling space.

"You can imagine all of the things we've had to deal with," Donna Cavender, the store's marketing manager, says in a YouTube video. "We feel comfortable enough now that we can give you an open date."

Cavender said in the video that the business hopes its temporary market for produce and natural foods also will open April 12.
