Four Seasons Greenhouse and Nursery, Inc. was named for the eighth consecutive year one of Today's Garden Center magazine's Revolutionary 100 Garden Centers.

The Revolutionary 100 program, which began in 2006, surveys garden center owners and managers on how they run their businesses. These retailers compete in a variety of areas that reveal their business health and how they impact their local communities. The Revolutionary 100 is open to all local garden centers, large and small. "It's always a thrill for us and our staff to make this very prestigious list.," said Vic Vanik, owner of Four Seasons. "We've been fortunate enough to be included on this list every year since 2007, have been a regional winner three times and the National Winner in 2013. Each year this competition pushes us to continue to be innovative and creative with our products and marketing in order to improve and remain on the list."

Garden center owners and managers across the United States fill out an extensive online questionnaire covering topics such as customer and community service, management philosophy, marketing, use of technology, purchasing and profitability.

"This year we were included because of our involvement in the local food movement which is huge right now," said Vanik. "Part of that was our involvement in our Winter Farmer's Market and also in getting the Southwest Farm Fresh co-operative started."

"The garden centers that made this year's list are an exceptional group of forward-thinking independent retailers who understand that their customers constantly evolve. The Revolutionary 100 strive to provide what customers need to succeed in the gardening lifestyle," says Today's Garden Center Group Editor Carol Miller. "We are proud to call them revolutionary."

The 2015 Revolutionary 100 Awards program is run by the garden retail trade magazine Today's Garden Center and is sponsored by AmericanHort, the national association for the garden industry.
