Smith & Hawken has jumped the shark. In fact, Paul Hawken, the founder, was one of our inspirations for starting our own business, but since Paul Hawken sold it (it has now has been bought by Scott's) Smith & Hawken has been treading water.

The whole concept, assortment, marketing needs a vast revamp. The whole place is stale....stuck in a rut.
Interesting timing on this post...I just read a news release stating that all of the stores will be expanded to 10,000 sq. ft. over the next 5 years, with a new design firm out of SF.
I will be interested to see what they fill the space with....let's hope it's not lawn sprinklers and grass seed.
BTW...they have never been terribly profitable either. cannone123 on Jun 14, 2006
barbara, thanks for the comment, i had been thinking about the s&h copper containers since i love copper, but it seemed pricey, and something about the site just seems.... cheesy... rasil on Jun 14, 2006
