What our businesses say
Staff are very dedicated, competent, and helpful. The Greenhouse is a gem! I highly recommend it to every business owner in town.
I love the Greenhouse! I recommend the services and classes often and will continue to use the services. Thank you for all your hard work.
This is a special place created to help small business owners and aspiring business owners grow. Connected with the St. Pete Area Chamber of Commerce, the resources and opportunities to connect and learn at the Greenhouse are endless. Check out the 1MC (1 Million Cups) every Wednesday morning from 9-10am.
This is an amazing resource to our community! If you are starting a business, they have a bunch of free classes that can help you get started from business plan writing to how to market your business to how to use quick books. They also offer free meet ups with ling time business owners in their area to mentor you on your business. So happy I found this group. Thank you, Greenhouse!
This establishment is such an asset. I try to tell any new or prospective entrepreneurs about it. Free support from enthusiastic, caring and helpful people! Who wouldn't want that?
