HERE’S THE SCOOP…
MERRIMENT AND JOY AT THIS HOLIDAY SOIREE
Several local artisans and business owners are coming together for the 2 Hopewell Artisan Holiday Fair offering unique and one-of-a-kind gifts. This super fun night is happening TOMORROW December 3rd from 4:30 to 8:00 PM at 2 Hopewell. A PERFECT girls night out organized for you and your besties during the holiday season. What is better than drinks, some app-ies and shopping? Ummmm...NOTHING. Among the goodies will be locally made jewelry, cutting boards, soaps and lotions, home decor, bags, and more. This soiree makes for a great night. 20 local artisans have been working hard all year to bring their goods to you in time for the holiday season. Start the season by SHOPPING SMALL!
PLAN NOW FOR SPRING of 2025 WITH LANDSCAPE ADVISORS
For all of the organized people looking ahead to spring lawn care already...we got you. Right now, Landscape Advisors is taking on new clients for next year. The owner, Rob Borman loves all things green and floral and takes residential properties to the next level using his keen eye and relentless attention to detail. He's your guy if you're searching for someone to do any of the following: spring cleanup, revamp your landscape, make your lawn look like a plush green carpet, or reinvigorate your hydrangeas (they're his fave!). Prior to starting this business, Rob worked as a groundskeeper for professional baseball and later as a grounds manager at a university. Both properties required an extra level of care to ensure perfection at every turn. During this time, he not only learned what it takes to keep properties pristine, but also the importance of a customer centric philosophy. He and his team offer all things landscape maintenance including mowing, mulching, plantings and more. The goal is always exceptional customer service and creating beautiful outdoor spaces for clients. Check out some of their latest work below (don't adjust your eyes...these are local Landscape Advisors properties...not Cape houses!) or call to set up a consult 860.390.1411.
