After 41 years of business, Justin and Lynn Marotta are confidently placing Possum Run Greenhouse and Gifts into the hands of new owners John and Caroline Bletner.
The newly married Bellville couple took over the property Oct. 2. "It was the perfect time in our life to look for an adventure together," John said. "Early on in our relationship she said, 'Dream big with me, John Bletner,' so, you can't get much bigger than this."
The Bletners have big plans for the business — hinting they'll be "opening to a larger market" and that the retail side will "look different." They're also expanding the Mulberry Miniatures collection.
But they aren't giving away much more than that until the grand re-opening the week of April 22.
