OUR STORY

Pooh corner farm is A FAMILY RUN BUSINESS

Located on just under 100 acres outside of Bethel, Maine. Carole and Richard Duplessis started Pooh Corner Farm in 1984 with one greenhouse and a small store. Each year they continued to increase production by adding an additional greenhouse. In 1999 they expanded the retail store by about 1,000 square feet turning the business into a year-round garden center, florist and gift shop.

In 2020, Carole and Richard’s daughter, Margaret returned bringing her passion for floristry, wedding design, and sourcing unique gift and home accent pieces for the gift shop.

In 2026 Margaret has expanded the florist and gift shop to Main Street in Bethel under the name Alden & Co., offering all of the same high quality floral design and gift shop creating a retail space that will showcase all seasons and encourage customers to bring nature into all aspects of their lives.

Following Margarets expansion, Carole and Richard’s son Forest and his girlfriend Lainey have stepped into the greenhouses garden center and will continue to supply all of your seasonal garden needs for the future to come.
