The Garden Patch Thrift Shoppe

Greenhouse Ministries has many facets...you can frequently hear us saying that if there is a need in Rutherford County, and no one to meet it, we will step up and see what we can do! Well, how many of you knew that we also have a thriving business connected to us, that feeds into our ministry and helps us pay the bills? Well we do, and it is the oh so popular Garden Patch Thrift Shoppe!

If you have never been into the Garden Patch, you are missing out! GP sells everything from household items, to clothes--books to furniture. We truly have it all! We only sell the clothes that are in pristine condition, and a lot of time goes into pricing the items that come in, so we can offer a fair deal. We offer weekly sales and daily discounts, just to further the fun! Are you looking for anything specific? Just come on in! Sometimes our items can be obscure, but we hold by the belief that there is a home for everything we get!

Tuesdays...are you a Veteran? Come in and get 25% off your entire purchase on Thankful Tuesday!
Wednesdays...are you a senior over 60? On Wise Wednesdays we offer 25% discounts for you!
Thursdays...are you a student? With a valid student id, you can save some extra $$ on Thrifty Thursday!

With a little help from our Greenhouse staff, volunteers, and the wonderful ladies at Oh Magnolia, we bring you just some of the styles that came completely from the Garden Patch! Do YOU have some inspired fashion from Garden Patch? Share it on Instagram using #DesignsByGP, so we can see how you style your Garden Patch wears!


Julie knows a good deal when she sees one! She is showing us how to stay chic in an all black outfit with adorable lace touches on the shoulders!

Jane dazzles in this blue number with always appropriate black slacks. Jane knows that blue is a hot summer color and stays up to date with the season fashions by shopping at Garden Patch!

Not one to be outdone, Cliff shows us a great blue menswear option! Quality men's polos at a great price? Only at the Garden Patch!

Want a way to dress up jeans for work? Learn from Shelley, who pairs a leopard print cardigan with a solid color shirt and heels...just enough pop to make it fun, but keeping it work appropriate!

Want a great casual outfit that doesn't look simple and boring? Well turn to Emily's option with a bright shirt and skirt! The colors are fabulous and she looks comfy AND chic!

Whatever your style, we get it! You can rock vintage and eclectic looks from the Garden Patch as well! Also, take a cue from Elsa, who's rocking her fave heels with a different outfit!

Kristen shows us that you can embrace the care free attitude while still looking cute and put together. She is having a great time in this dress and cardigan purchased at the Garden Patch!

Kacey knows how to make a scarf look summer cool! This bright scarf isn't heavy and adds a great pop of color to an already great dress--a little something extra that puts this outfit into the amazing!

 Summer means it gets hot, hot, hot outside! As the temperatures rise, make sure you stay cool in fun sundresses like the one Shelley is wearing! Extra bonus with this outfit--stripes are so in!


Sandy is feeling sassy today! And why shouldn't she? She got this to-die-for pink top at a fraction of the store price! The color is great, and the style is perfect for these hot summer days!

We have great menswear selections at the Garden Patch! Drew shows us how a polo with jeans should be the staple outfit for every man during the summer!

 If there is one thing Candace knows, it's that comfort is key! She demonstrates how you can look cute, while staying comfortable and cool! Her outfit perfectly embodies "Effortless cool"!

Norma hasn't been at Greenhouse long, but she learned early that the Garden Patch was quite the treasure! She rocks this striped shirt and capris outfit, looking calm, cool, and collected!

Need clothes for the little ones? No problem! Sophie loves her Garden Patch finds...and why shouldn't she...they're adorable!

Rain is not fun! But Lincoln's cute raincoat he found at the Garden Patch prove summer showers can be a good thing...the fashion that comes with it can be at least!

Can't make it to the beach this year? That's okay! Ruby Jane is still having fun in this beachside inspired look! Kids need something easy and fun for these long summer days spent outside!


As you can hopefully see, the Garden Patch has a lot to offer! Check out our summer sales and make sure you come by and see us! We are located adjacent to Greenhouse Ministries at 309 South Spring Street in downtown Murfreesboro! Have questions? Call us, (615) 494-0499. or visit our website!

Mayors' Prayer Breakfast

Greenhouse Ministries was honored to host the 9th Annual Mayors' Prayer Breakfast on Thursday May 1st.  We have hosted this for the past 7 years, and we are so proud and so excited to have the opportunity to join with our community leaders on this special day of prayer for Rutherford County and our whole nation.  Every year we follow the points of prayer set out by the National Day of Prayer Task Force, praying for: Government, Church, Military, Family, Education, Media, Business, and we add our own in there--Health.

This year was a particularly special occasion because it is an election year for Rutherford County and Murfreesboro, and we were lucky enough to have our current Murfreesboro Mayor pray for and introduce our incoming Murfreesboro Mayor! All in all, the event went off great and we found a seat for everyone, which is surely a miracle because we counted more people than seats! A complete rundown is below, and we will add pictures as soon as we get them, but please take a look at the National Day of Prayer website and familiarize yourself with this great event. Next year, plan to be with us at the Embassy Suites on the first Thursday in May to participate in the 10th Annual Mayors' Prayer Breakfast!
