Escobar family opens plant nursery business in Lake Alfred

Escobar Garden Market LLC is starting a general farming and plant sales business on State Road 557.

The Escobar family has formed Escobar Garden Market LLC to operate a general farming business focused on selling plants at 2541 State Road 557 in Lake Alfred. According to the site plan filed with Polk County, the business will operate from the front portion of the property, which backs up to Lake Gum.

The property's land development code already permits general farming use. The family notes they may expand later to include selling fruits and vegetables, though no timeline or plans for that expansion are currently on file.
