There always is interest in our special classes, so talk with Lee, Anne or Debbie today!
Also, continue to check out this web page, local newspapers and radio announcements for news about upcoming special promotional events at Niepagen’s. We work hard at providing fun, community-minded and family-oriented activities for our customers and friends. Most events are tied to people’s love of gardening and nature in general, of course. Sometimes the events revolve around holidays or special days… frequently there is music and food… almost always there are special sales items available… and most times they are just plain fun– sometimes even WACKY! Watch the calendar and plan on attending a special event at Niepagen’s.

- Bus Trip to The Chicago Flower & Garden Show– Sunday, March 11th, 7:30AM-6:00PM! Guaranteed to get you thinking about gardening and the warm weather months ahead, this bus trip to The Windy City will take us to Navy Pier to one of the premier gardening shows in the country. We will travel to Chicago via Peoria Charter Coach. Cost for the trip is $50.00 per person and includes bus transportation to and from the event and one admission ticket to the show. As far as lunch is concerned, you will have to “fend for yourselves”, but of course, there are plenty of great dining spots in the vicinity. We have a great time on all of our bus trips and this trip will be no exception! Call us at (309) 828-4580 to get signed up today!
