LMS

Lawn, Maintenance, Service (LMS) is the greenhouse with a full service nursery and garden center that I used to work at and plan to return to work there, next year. LMS, which is a family owned business since 1970, is located on Wagner Road in Hampton. It has a number of greenhouses, housing the annual and perennial plants. There is also a huge tree block with all types and varieties of trees as well as the shrub nursery.

The store stocks a variety of items from gardening tools, gloves, eclectic pots, bird houses, bird baths, garden art,  bird seed, grass seed, animal repellants and so much more. A customer can purchase bulk or bagged goods of bark mulch, topsoil, potting soil, or mushroom manure. The staff is also able to custom design gift baskets for celebrations or for funerals, they can make up special orders, plant up your plant baskets and planters, make centerpieces and do custom made seasonal, decorated wreaths. They can help you with your fundraisers, take special orders, and set up an area in the greenhouse for your monthly garden club.

The staff is experienced and knowledgeable from the friendly owner, Rich Cafaro, or Bill McWilliams, who is a top notch landscaping designer. If there is any question or anything that you want to know about plants, trees, bushes or garden control, Jane, Nursery Manage, is a walking encyclopedia of knowledge. She is one of those rare people who seems to know everything and is there to help anyone and everyone. Whenever I need a delivery made, Ray is there and always does a good job with a short conversation and a big smile.

So on one of those beautiful weekends when you need flowers and more, drive out to LMS in Hampton, off of Middle Road School, and tell them Mary sent you.
