No Longer Bound

I was introduced to No Longer Bound Nursery by Emily R. who is a regular green thumb and plant fiend. Pretending that I enjoy gardening, I’ve spent hours with Emily perusing plant sales and nursery retailers and am pleased to have found No Longer Bound.
Strange name, right? Well, the point is that men who are rehabilitating from substance abuse volunteer here, by growing plants! I believe it’s a faith-​based program, heavily Christain-​themed (confirmed by the Christian soft rock playing in the open space while we roamed through the aisles of greenery) and man, can these folks grow some plants! And at bargain basement prices.
It’s late in the season now for planting (apparently triple-​digit heat is not so good for putting stuff in the ground — who knew??), but I think this was formula for even better savings. Almost clearance prices — I paid 9 bucks for three one-​gallon knock out roses. Bargain!
The plants are healthy, and patronizing this place supports a good cause. So if you’re in the Cumming area, it’s warm-​ish weather, and you have a hankerin’ for getting your hands dirty and planting some greenery, by all means check them out.
