Her new shop, The Plant Project, located in Uptown, is the first Black-owned shop of its kind and has garnered attention and support on Twitter, with users urging others to shop at a minority-owned establishment.
There are other Black-owned plant shops in North Texas Energy Gardens started before The Plant Project, though it s more of a pop-up and delivery-based. There s also New Growth Plants in Carrollton, though Clarke s is the only plant shop in Dallas that s Black-owned.

A feasability study is to get underway next week to explore the potential restoration of a historic mill in north Tipperary.
The Old Mill in the middle of Cloughjordan village has fallen into disrepair since it went out of use in the early 70s, and has gone through multiple owners in previous decades.
However, a local group has secured LEADER funding to carry out a feasibility study in the first half of this year.
It’s hoped that the Old Mill will be restored and adapted for use as a community and creative arts hub.
