Spring Melt! Almost March

Miss you all and hope to see you very soon.– Martin Stern and staff at Squire House.

VIRTUAL SONGS OF LOVE
VIEW VIDEO

Celebrate LOVE and ROMANCE with a heartwarming mini-concert of Cole Porter and Rodgers/Hammerstein classics plus ‘The Masochist’s Tango’ by Tom Lehrer. We couldn't be together this year for our annual Valentine's Concert, so Squire House Gardens in Afton, Minnesota is sending a Virtual Valentine performed by the very talented Minneapolis artists 'From Justin to Kelly with Carson'.

STORE CLOSED FOR WINTER BREAK
REOPENING APRIL 2021

No winter events are scheduled because of the Covid virus precautions and Squire House will be taking a longer than usual winter break. We look forward to opening the shop in the spring with lots of lovely indoor plants, outdoor plant nursery, and many home and garden goods. Spring will be here before we know it and we are hoping for a much better 2021. Look for store updates on Facebook and in our E-Newsletter. Stay well, stay safe and do your part to beat this virus!

Martin Stern, owner of Squire House Gardens

My heart is truly filled when I reflect on recent times here at Squire House Gardens.
The combination of hard work, clear thinking and determination of the staff and the devotion of our customers have us on firm footing as we look forward to Spring 2021.

I have been in close contact with our growers in order to procure a wonderful array of plant offerings when we open up the nursery when finer weather reaches us in April.

Be watching for short fun and entertaining presentations on gardening and plant topics during the winter months. I have some good ideas brewing!

Again and again and again I want to express my sincere thanks to all of you who supported Squire House Gardens and enabled us to continue to serve you for nearly 30 years.
