Plantpeddler was selected as one of only five growers in the country to grow plants for the Disney Garden program.
    Plantpeddler, partnering with retailer Hyvee on the project, will produce 109,000 units of flowers for Disney.
    The flowers pots are decorated with pictures of Disney characters. The program is geared toward getting kids interested in gardening, according to Stacy Bryant of Plantpeddler.
    Plantpeddler’s work with the Disney program also gave Crestwood High School band students an opportunity to raise money for their upcoming trip to New York City next spring.
    Current band students in grades eight through eleven had the opportunity label plants April 26-30 as a fundraiser for the band. Altogether, students raised $2,700.
