Monticello Chamber Featured Business for May - The Potting Shed

The Potting Shed Greenhouse is in its 13th year of providing beautiful plants for the Southern Wisconsin, Northern Illinois and beyond. A family-owned business since 2006, The Potting Shed in Monroe, WI, is a small, but growing, business.
It truly is a family affair. The Spotts family originated in Monroe, Michigan, where their extended family still owns greenhouses. Since moving to Wisconsin in 1991, Sandy would go back annually to get her plants from her sister. She decided to explore growing her own plants, and The Potting Shed greenhouse idea was born!
