Settlers building homesteads were probably more concerned with edible plant life than the ornamental stuff. Once their crops were hearty and their horses fed, they might have liked having a place like Griggs around to help gussy up their surroundings. They’d find trees for shade from the beating sun, pottery for hauling water from the well and even a nice bench rest a spell and observe the vast expanse of the frontier. Griggs carries everything from fertilizers to garden tools, along with plant starts. They can even help you create a garden of native plants that will take you back to the 1800s.
