Whitetail Greenery     

When someone new to the area asks you, "What's West Boylston like?" how do you respond? Small town, not many people, everyone knows everyone else kind of thing? These may be the only words that come to mind at the moment, but how you really feel about your town may be different inside. West Boylston is extremely unique, though it may not appear that way at first. Yes, it is small, but there is so much more to it than that. West Boylston is very close-knit community, and the people living here are always willing to help each other out when problems arise. The residents love to get involved, whether that be with town meetings, fundraisers, art festivals, or sports clinics. Along with the beautiful scenery, the feeling of family is what makes West Boylston a truly great place to be. Whitetail Greenery & Florist is a small plant business located at 294 Prospect Street in West Boylston, Massachusetts. It is a place owned by the DuVarney family that sells flowers, trees, and shrubs during every season of the year. They always have flowers out in the spring, summer, and fall, and by the time winter rolls around they are ready to sell their Christmas trees and wreaths. Hanging plants seem to be their specialty, for they arrange the flowers on their own to create gorgeous baskets that line the ceilings of their greenhouses. After taking just one step inside, you will become lost in a world of color for hours on end. Anyone who is familiar with flowers or who simply appreciates the beauty in life should definitely pay a visit to Whitetail Greenery.
