Cox Family Gardens in Benton told us in June that they were done for the season – or so we thought…
The family began serving the gardening needs of Saline County in 1995 from their location at 520 Alcoa Road in Benton. I personally found them to be very helpful, going above and beyond to help “someone” who will probably never be characterized as having a green thumb.
But time marches on and 26 years is a career’s worth. The Cox family decided they were satisfied with that number and so sold their business in September. So yes, it turns out they were done altogether. But the gardening business on Alcoa Road isn’t.
Just as plants go dormant for a season and return anew, this business won’t be out of commission for long. The owners at ProLand Title have purchased the property and plan to re-open it in Spring 2022.
According to the company, it’s still going to be a place to purchase plants, but with lots of upgrades and home decor. There are also plans for a space for local artists and makers to sell their items.
The name, appropriately, will be Another Season Home & Garden. Watch for updates here.
