Garden Q & A with Steve Hancock

On Saturday, July 26 from 10 – 5, we are excited to announce that Steve Hancock of Appletree Nursery in Winnisquam will be at Gallery in the Garden 2025 to talk about plants and answer any questions. This is a wonderful opportunity to learn from a very experienced grower.

Steve Hancock has been a self-described Plant Nerd since childhood. Logically, this led him to a BS in Plant and Soil Science from the University of Vermont and since graduating he has been in the “Green Industry” for nearly his entire career.

Steve’s experiences include many aspects of growing, including retail/wholesale nursery sales, retail greenhouse/perennial manager, landscape design/installation & maintenance, self-owned wholesale perennial & ground cover grower, and winter greenhouse vegetable grower.

He enjoys spending his free time in his own gardens, visiting botanical & historic gardens as well as other garden centers and growing operations.

Steve eagerly awaits your questions about gardening!
Gallery in the Garden 2025 is a celebration of fine handcraft in a one-of-a-kind garden setting!
