I know it's a long shot, but anyone here happen to be in the wholesale nursery business? If so, would you PM me?

Thanks.

Wholesale? Maybe not. A woman I work with retired and has had two summers of it. Basically she buys plants etc from a distributor and she sells them at her site. Economy, blah, blah, blah and the cost of insurance for people walking around your property, she's about ready to come back to work.

Yep...wholesale only. These guys do no retail. They grow the trees and then only sell to chain garden stores, Lowes, Home Depot, etc. Looking for some insight into that business model.

wholesale does make money, but the retail end guys seem to rake it in by the truckload.
