The footprint of this retail village has widened, new categories of inventory have been added, and select wares are also presented online. But despite more than twenty-five years of growth, the proprietors say their vision remains intact. “There really wasn’t any debate regarding our desire to create a shop with antiques, plants, and unique gifts,” Dan says. “Surprisingly, the mixture of merchandise has not changed much from our original concept.” And as they have for a quarter century, devoted patrons still enjoy finding treasures among the Boxwoods.

This is one of my very favourite articles in the newest March / April 2018 issue! Everything in this shop looks wonderful and I could easily see much of it in my own home – the blue and white bowls/urns are some of my favourite items!
I wish I was closer so that I could visit Boxwoods in person! I wish I could see everything there! 🙂
God bless !
