Plant

If you've been to this Inglewood shop before, you understand why Plant wins this category each year. A deep passion turned start-up in 2014, this now thriving business helps reconnect people with the natural world. The goal is to inspire them to build and maintain beautiful spaces with their family-friendly garden centre packed full of succulents, ample plants, beautiful pots and all the gardening supplies you could need. This company truly provides plants for the people.

Plant had to make several changes during the city's shutdown, as a core part of their business depends on in-person services. They put their workshops, custom arrangements and repotting services on hold during this time to ensure the safety of their employees and customers. This time away really pushed Plant to evolve and reach out to their customers in a new way.

You can support Plant by following along and spreading the word of all small businesses. Throughout this year, and always, they depend on their neighbours to shop locally and support the little guys. In-store shopping at Plant returned on June 19th, so feel free to stop by in-person, shop online and/or choose curbside pickup.
