For Mother’s Day, I took my mom on the 25th Annual Gardens for Connoisseurs Tour in and around Atlanta. The Tour consisted of thirteen private gardens in the booshiest neigborhoods in town. We skipped the High Tea for a homemade brunch, and made it to only  seven gardens. Each garden offered a different approach, style and “finish.”  In the next few days, I’ll post pics of each.

  • Thinking of changing DoLeaf “organic” category to “organic certified” and adding a “handgrown” category. Thoughts? #

Spring in DoLeaf’s Garden

We’ve spent our spring working on DoLeaf. Ryan added a new style, a better search and he’s just finishing up automated shipping. Micah finished integrating PayPal, added a messaging system, finished our automated sales tax function, and worked on additional  CSS styling. I’ve been talking to nursery owners, working  on our Terms of Use and testing out the features.

We’re getting to the point where most of our features are ready to go, pending a bit more testing. DoLeaf will launch in early June. We are still looking for interested independent garden centers and specialty nurseries to become premier sellers at launch.

If you’re interested in more details, feel free to contact me at sarah@doleaf.com, or via twitter (twitter.com/doleaf). You can also sign up for upcoming announcements at www.doleaf.com.
