Dickman Farms Hires New Retail GM

Dickman Farms Greenhouse & Garden Center has hired Stephanie Whitehouse to serve as the new retail general manager for the Finger Lakes Region garden center in Auburn, New York.

Whitehouse spent the previous seven years as the sales and marketing director for Peace Tree Farm, a USDA Certified Organic wholesale greenhouse in Upper Bucks County, Pennsylvania. 

She is no stranger to the Finger Lakes Region of New York State, having grown up in Skaneateles, New York, and attending Cornell University for her undergraduate and graduate degrees in plant sciences and weed ecology, respectively.

Owner Dave Dickman said, “Stephanie brings a wealth of industry and horticultural knowledge to her new position and a passion for connecting plants with people.”

Dickman Farms Greenhouse & Garden Center is a fifth-generation business. Dickman Farms ships over 10 million young plants to other growers across the United States, and provides retail-ready plants to locally owned garden centers along the mid-Atlantic coast.
