Our Response to the Coronavirus

In Response to the COVID-19

Update 3/22/20

Landscaping Services

Based on guidance from the Pennsylvania Landscape and Nursery Association, who has been in communication with the Governor’s Office, our landscape services crews can still operate.  We have received many requests for services this season and will be in touch.  Please use the form here to request our services.   As always, it is usually not necessary for you to be present when our crews visit.  Your communication with Sue and Liz can continue via email, text, or phone.  We are taking precautions internally to keep our services crew safe and healthy as they perform their work for you.  We will use best practices for our crew and maintain distance of 6′ from anyone in our interactions.

Nursery

We are also advised we can continue to operate, as an essential service in the agriculture sector: nursery and greenhouse production.  We know many of you are home and seeking some therapeutic time in your landscapes.  We want to help you do that, while keeping our staff and customers healthy.

Please submit your plant requests using this form and we will be in touch on how to pay remotely and pick up your order. We will not be handling cash, checks,  or credit cards in person.  There will be no face-to-face contact.  The nursery IS NOT OPEN for browsing or shopping.  Plant pick-ups are by appointment only.

We have posted our availability on line. It is an excel form.  You can download it and submit an order to us.  We will confirm the order, ask for payment via paypal, and then assemble your order for you. (You do not need a paypal account.)  Please visit https://edgeofthewoodsnursery.com/order-form-and-availability-2020

The health of our employees will always come first. 

No employee will be required to work if sick, caring for a family member,  or choosing to self-isolate.  Our goal is to keep our EOTW family healthy and safely employed as long as possible.

Edge of the Woods will be complying with all regulations and guidance issued by authorities.

We hope that our continued operation will help you to safely enjoy the outdoors, providing relief from any social isolation or quarantine.  Above all, please stay safe.

If you have any questions on our interpretation of the Governors directives, please visit PLNA.COM where they explain how the rulings apply to our business.  Please know we are going above and beyond to keep our employees healthy, safe, and employed.

Climate-Wise Landscaping

Replace the seasonal non-native plantings that need to be replaced every few months with native perennial borders. And instead of wide spaces of mulch between the plants, place them close together so that there is little room for weeds. This practice is part of climate-wise landscaping because it reduces soil disturbances, which reduces the carbon released to the air and it reduces the large footprint of repetitive production and transport to supply new plants every season. The perennials will last for many seasons and require much less labor.

Trees, trees, and more trees! Oh, and shrubs, shrubs, and yes, more shrubs! We have a wonderful selection of native trees and shrubs available now. Woody plants provide interest all year long, height to the garden, vital habitat for wildlife, and years of satisfaction as you watch your plant grow into a mature specimen! They are the foundation of our greater, forested ecosystem spanning most of eastern North America, which historically covered nearly 100% of Pennsylvania’s landmass. Today, forested land still makes up the majority of Pennsylvania’s total land area, at about 58% coverage. Below are some of the trees we have now, keep an eye for another post soon about shrubs :)

Available now:

*Trees*

Shagbark hickory
Shellbark hickory
Red maple
Sugar maple
Red oak
Willow oak
Black oak
