FEATURE: Finding happiness at Great Gardens

After working in the finance industry for more than 20 years, Jeff Jones of Huntley decided to make a career change. He happened to find out that Hein’s Greenhouse in Torrington was for sale, and since he grew up on a farm and enjoyed working with plants, he decided to buy the business 13 years ago. Jones, who re-named the business Great Gardens a couple years after purchasing it, said he’s had a blast over the years running the greenhouse, which is one of the largest in the WyoBraska region.
