Jan's Jungle

Retail Greenhouse and Nursery. Top products: bedding flowers, hanging baskets, vegetable starters, potted plants. Jan’s Jungle is a family-owned and operated greenhouse and nursery located in Erie, Colorado, established in 2012. The operation functions out of three primary greenhouses—affectionately named Baby Bear, Mama Bear, and Papa Bear—where they grow a wide variety of plant stock locally rather than importing inventory from external suppliers. Their core product line consists of vibrant bedding flowers, professional-quality hanging baskets, and healthy vegetable starters suitable for home gardening. Beyond traditional retail, Jan’s Jungle differentiates itself through an experiential business model that includes hosting Planting Parties, educational school group visits, and a signature service where customers can bring their own planters to be filled on-site with expert guidance. The business emphasizes community engagement and youth education, offering a program where children can plant their own pots for free to foster an interest in horticulture. Their target market consists of local homeowners and gardening enthusiasts seeking climate-appropriate, locally acclimated plants supported by personalized growing advice.
