MANKATO, Minn. (KEYC) — Last year amid the pandemic, gardening sales skyrocketed as people sought out colorful landscape to cure the COVID-19 blues and that trend continues this planting season.
“These last two years of course with more people staying at home, there seems to be a real up-tick in gussying up their yards. Gardening has become very popular not only with flowers, but we are seeing it with vegetables and edible fruit in the landscape,” said Betty Koberoski, owner of Edanvale Nursery.
