You’ll find everything from houseplants to vintage signs and lighting fixtures to locally made jam at The Potting Shed—with the added touch of 1920s music playing throughout the store. How does Carlisle source his expansive display of antiques spanning out to the garden area? “Twice a year, we fly into a state, rent a 26-foot truck, and drive cross-country,” he says. “We’ve built up a nice little network of people we buy from. (We go to their) homes or barns with things they’ve collected for years.” This month, he travels to Boise, Idaho.
