The Green Center has everything you need for the Christmas season. We have lights, decorations, greeting cards and so much more. We will be open on December 15th 2018 for last minute shopping.

Sometimes we receive a donation that is so unique and beautiful that we gasp with delight. This week it was a metallic Santa. It was claimed almost immediately.

  1. Any chance you could have longer hours next Saturday? What with feeding and medicating kitties, my mornings are pretty well full! I would love to come over and see what’s there, though!
