Overview

Rapidly becoming known as a "local destination", Labour of Love offers more than the typical small nursery; display gardens, tours, gift and craft shop, 40+ varieties of homemade jams and jellies (from local fruits), handwoven articles of apparel and for the home. And more...

"Labour of Love Landscaping and Nursery, located in Vermont's Northeast Kingdom, specializes in perennials and bulbs that are hardy to Zone 3 (Zone 2 is tundra)...

Kate Butler, the cheerful proprietor, is one of those relentlessly creative people who are full of surprises. She grows all her own plants from seed or division; she has a taste for the unusual and "oddball stuff..." she finds amusement in growing survivors that are 'not supposed to do well up here'..." (Ruah Donnelly.The Adventurous Gardener: Where to buy the best plants in New England)

Open year-round, our themed guest rooms are filled with genuine antiques and botanical garden-sized unusual tropical plants.
