He had his own landscaping business while in high school and knew that he wanted to take that experience to a new level when he graduated from college. So in 1991 he started Fairway Estate Landscaping. “I like building; I like taking something and making it better,” he says, and the landscaping business provided the perfect outlet for his creativity and his love of nature. It was a natural progression, then, to open his own garden center next to what is without a doubt the most beautiful spot in town – the waterfalls adjacent to the historic Brownstone Mill. From now until Christmas the garden center is aglow with the color of the beautiful blooms of the season, mostly Jersey grown. “I try to find an interesting selection of high quality plants from responsible, quality growers,” says Meyer. “Quality plants need time to grow. Quality growers take the time to do it right and do not force plants by overfertilizing,” he explains, noting that plants grown slowly are healthier and better able to withstand disease and insects. “We sell quality,” Meyer says. He adds that he also looks for growers that do not use and/or overuse pesticides, because it is better for the environment. At Fairway Estate Garden Center the staff is dedicated and knowledgeable about plants and how to use them to their best advantage. They can help create a beautiful, interesting
