All Iowa store raises funds for horticulture

Nearly four hundred products will be offered at the temporary All-Iowa Store opening next week in Des Moines. It’s a fundraiser for the Iowa State Horticulture Society. Secretary Treasurer Mike Bevins says 53 small businesses will have a chance to market their products. Bevins says the All-Iowa Store was created to help small businesses get their foot in the door. The All-Iowa Store is part of the 2001 Home and Garden Show in Des Moines, where nearly 50-thousand are expected. The store opens February 14th at Veterans Memorial Auditorium and runs through the 18th.
