Anyone here really like wearing Merch from their favorite nursery? Personally I love wearing merch from local stores that I really like, especially hats (I’m a very big guy so finding shirts and such in my size is very difficult). the other day I was wearing my baker’s creek hat and was thinking about what other nurseries I wished had hats or other merch. I wish my favorite Fig place, off the beaten path, had a hat. also edible landscaping. I’d be happy to rock a hat from Peaceful Heritage, Burnt Ridge, or Whitman Farms.

No. If I’m going to be a billboard, then they can at least gift me the cap and shirt.
(Like shopbluethumb.com and Anderson Mulch, B&C Landscaping, Ashley’s Garden Center, Kings Gardens and several other merchandisers have done.)
I’d make a grase rag if someone sent me a logo shirt in rainbow; such a shame God’s efforts got perverted.

I didn’t see any nurseries there. do they use that service? do you know of any nurseries who give out free merch?
I just edited to add to post. BB
so I’m confused. do you like wearing merch from these places or do you get them for free and don’t wear them?
A free cap is a free cap…I have enoough junk in the closet so I don’t need a collection I never use. Unless there’s some reason on a given day, I may very well grab a cap or t-shirt that has an ad. I just don’t like the idea of them charging $19.99 plus shipping for a cap or shirt they hope I’ll advertise.
I have this tool company that gave me one that says the government didn’t build this company, but we pay taxes to build government, and I regularly put it on, lol.

so you prefer to wear something from a brand you like or if it has a saying you like, but you will wear anything you get for free even if you don’t like the brand just because it is free? do I have that right?
so for me, I would certainly prefer a free hat, but I’m not going to take or wear something with a brand logo if I don’t support it just because it is free and I will pay for a hat from a place I really like and support, especially small and/or local businesses that are trying to get their start.
are there any nurseries that if they were giving out free hats you would wear their logo with pride?
I will wear merch if it is interesting. A local fishing store had a cap with an awesome cool Bowfin on it. Everyone who knows me will tell you I’m all about fishing for Bowfins.

Guess it depends on personal choice. Been to Estates where the past owners had hundreds of caps. Then like myself; I have 4 hats on a rack and that is it…lol
When I need a hat, a “ballcap” will rarely do. I need the brim all around and as wide as possible so I can spend hours out in the sun. lol
I’d probably be more likely to wear a branded shirt from a plant business I loved than a cap, but only if I found it to be comfortable and well fitting as well as aesthetically pleasing. T-shirts or hoodies would probably catch my interest most.

I wear a ball cap most days, especially in the winter. my office has a pretty relaxed dress code.
I’m the same way. beach, pool or out in the garden I will wear a hat with a full brim

so I guess I’m also making a plea for @Blake to make a trucker hat with the peaceful heritage logo. I would totally take the pawpaw patch on a hat or as a vinyl sticker too
