  • I remember going to Cavotta's a few times as a kid with my grandparents when they would buy flowers for their massive garden. I was a miserable, gloomy, goth kid that hated flowers and anything colorful. So yeah, I didn't like going to Cavotta's then because I didn't like anything that wasn't black or dead. In my adult life, I've driven past Cavotta's approximately 1,000 times and have never stopped in. WHY? Am I stupid? I found out the answer to that question this past Saturday. YES. I'm stupid. Cavotta's is a locally owned family business established in 1930. For more than 80 years, they've been selling produce and everything for your garden in the summer. They have lots of typical dago garden statues. You know, like, the Virgin Mary praying for your sins while she watches over your rose bushes. In the fall, pumpkins. In the winter, Christmas trees and decor and chocolate goodies. I insisted on buying a Christmas tree from a local mom and pop shop. So to Cavotta's I went. Disclaimer for the *omigod-i-must-buy-everything-local-peeps* -- I have NO idea where the Christmas trees actually came from. I didn't ask. I don't care. Maybe they were shipped in from China like everything else. Oh well. I bought it and I'm satisfied and I felt good giving Cavotta's my money instead of Lowe's or some big box chain that was selling trees. Another BIG, BIG bonus of Cavotta's is that they have some really adorable vintage items for sale inside. Who knew? They have several old stoves, a chrome and pink washing machine with a ringer (I wanted that so bad), and some other lovely, kitschy vintage decor. I was in love. They also had some vintage toys AND local honey. The best part of my Cavotta's experience was dealing with the beautiful, kind woman working that day. I feel terrible for not getting her name but she was an absolute JOY to work with. She helped me get the tree into my car. Errrrr, scratch that. She did all of the work. She put the tree into my car on her own and laughed about how I didn't even have to help her and insisted I go inside to stay warm. And then she talked to me about the cute vintage stuff she has for sale and complimented me on my purse. What a sweetie pie. I'll definitely be back to Cavotta's soon.
