Episode 65: Michael Fiore- Co Owner, Smith's Gardentown in Wichita Falls, Texas
Description
In the latest installment of The Growing Revolution, we sat down with Michael Fiore of Smith's Gardentown, which is the premier independent garden center of Wichita Falls, Texas.
Smith's Gardentown is a multi-generational family business and the torch is currently being passed from Michael's Mother to him. They focus a ton on classes and education, workshops and other ways to get potential customers in the door. Michael has been very prolific on social media platforms and if you aren't following them, you should. He's putting out new content continually, but if you are into plants, you will find yourself watching every one. He's super knowledgeable about plants, but he admitted to us that he does have a dedicated social media manager that helps him to plan, film and stay on schedule.
It's refreshing to see the next generation of garden center owners take the reigns and put their mark on their family businesses. After hearing this interview, you'll agree that Smith's Gardentown will be around for generations to come.
