A new retail-growing greenhouse operation opened in May at Lambs Farm, a nonprofit organization in Libertyville, Illinois, dedicated to those with developmental disabilities. I received the announcement and reached out to Marisa Rademaker, associate director of marketing and communications there, for more details.

“The Greenhouse will serve as another training site for our 200-plus participants at Lambs Farm,” she replied. “We currently have a Farmyard, Pet Center, Country Store & Bakery, Cafe and Thrift Shop for our residents to learn job-training skills, which help them learn, grow and explore other employment opportunities in the community. 

“All of these businesses are open to the public, and in addition to these areas, we have residential homes, an art studio and enrichment programs. The Greenhouse is another amazing addition to give our residents opportunities to thrive!”

Folks at the greenhouse will grow and sell annuals in pots, as well as hanging baskets and upright planters, along with a selection of veggies and herbs. They’ll also carry garden decor and growing supplies. Find out more at lambsfarm.org. GP
