Grow for Good 417, LLC was started in 2021 focusing on plants and plant education. Growing up in rural Missouri to a family of educators, we did not have a lot of money. Each season our family grew our own produce. Farming with my father taught me an understanding of plants. Volunteering with my mom and grandmother at plant-related events played a role in my plant education. In college, I was the

A moment of silence for the plant I totally forgot about... 💀🌿

​Confession time: I found this snake plant in a corner of the greenhouse where it hasn’t seen a drop of water in months.

​The leaves are curled, but after a deep soak today, it will bounce back perfectly. Snake plants are absolute tanks.

​Let this be your reminder: DO NOT OVERWATER YOUR PLANTS! 🛑

​Loving your plants too much with the watering can is the number one cause of plant death. They do not all need water every single week. When in doubt, let it dry out! Your plants can recover from being dry, but they cannot recover from root rot.

Look at this throwback! My, how we’ve grown... 🥹🌱

​Did you know that Grow For Good 417 actually got its start at the very first Pickwick Street Fair?! Looking back at our original booth, we have learned so much. For one, we’ve learned how to take way better pictures.

​Fast forward to today, and we are officially the legacy houseplant vendor for the Rountree neighborhood. We are so incredibly excited to be heading back this Saturday, June 6th, for the fifth annual Pickwick Street Fair!

​When you are out strolling the fair this weekend, we are absolutely your go-to destination for all things green. Accept no substitutes! We’ll be fully loaded with our signature custom Dirt Bags, Shine & Shield, and a massive jungle of gorgeous plants we’ve been hoarding just for this event.

​Come see us, check out how far we’ve come since year one, and let's celebrate five years of greening up Springfield together!

​⏰ When: Saturday, June 6th

📍 Where: Pickwick Street Fair (Historic Rountree Neighborhood)
