CHECK IT OUT

This week’s business to check out is MSN Plant Collective.

MSN Plant Collective began as a dream rekindled. After raising two boys and running a successful gymnastics business, founder Stephanie Orkowski—who studied horticulture—asked herself once again, “What do I want to be when I grow up?” The answer: return to her roots and open a plant store. Nestled in the heart of Monroe Street, MSN Plant Collective offers a carefully curated mix of houseplants—from everyday favorites to rare finds.

But it’s more than just a shop; it’s a growing community space designed to spark curiosity, connection, and shared learning. Stephanie’s mission is to help people feel confident in their plant care journey, whether they’re new plant parents or seasoned collectors. We’re proud to be part of the vibrant Monroe Street neighborhood and love creating opportunities for community to bloom.

Come visit, find your next leafy companion, and connect with fellow plant lovers—you'll leave with more than just a plant.
