Weber's Greenhouses is located at 4215 North Green Bay Avenue. The property, which measures less than one acre, was a family owned business that served a neighborhood clientele that has shifted over the years. Weber's, founded in 1931 by Frank Weber, originally sold retail flowers. Frank's son and grandson expanded the business in the late '70s to develop and expand a garden center.
Since the founding of Teens Grow Greens in 2014, the organization has utilized Webers Greenhouses as an experiential learning facility; where Teens grow plants from seed and practice their teamwork and entrepreneurship skills by selling plants. In March of 2018, Teens Grow Greens Inc. purchased the property so that we could employ more Graduates of TGG, give overtime hours to the Teens, and create a home base and community hub.

I am a senior at Riverside University High School. This is my third year being a part of Teens Grow Greens. After my internship, I was hired at Weber's Greenhouse as an Agricultural Apprentice so I could further promote the mission of TGG in the community. TGG has taught me to stand for leadership and healthy living and has given me opportunities to do so, like helping with the basketball tournament last year to raise money for TGG.

Amazing garden center! Great assortment of herbs, flowers, perennials, pots, veggies and fruit plants and my favorite place to get my indoor plants! Quality plants, helpful staff and I love the mission behind the business! So much better than a Steins or Home Depot and your money goes to something meaningful!

Weber’s which is powered by Teens Grow Greens is a great garden center! They have the best in store grown plants I’ve ever seen. I bought a sunflower from Weber’s and now it’s grown taller than my garage! I have had the privilege of being able to work at Weber’s and it has been the best experience I’ve ever had and I’m know to kill lots of plants 😬 but thanks to the tips from the staff at Weber’s my sunflower is still alive and growing larger to this day. Highly recommend checking them out!
