Gene - that's a wonderful service. A greenhouse in my area puts lawn chairs in their greenhouse in February and invites visitors to sit in the sunshine and read among their flowers. They always come back to buy in the spring.

  Donna,
      We have a refrigerator in the corner of the greenhouse/office that is 
  filled with drinks for all kinds. Water to pop, diet and regular. In winter 
  we have hot tea and coffee. We always treat customers who visit like 
  guests... they are offered drinks and can select what they like from the 
  refrigerator. Also a bench and chairs to sit a bit outside the greenhouse 
  doors and look down upon the plants in the display area that are for sale. 
  Our way to say thanks for those who take the time to drive here to a small 
  town to shop with us.

  Just to add that since 1995 I have had my email on the homepage of my
  site...I will not put any flash or music because that is not what my site is
  about...it is a gardening resource site, but if I could offer them a cup of
  tea or coffee - well that is another matter :)

  Donna Dawson, Master Gardener
