Peridot Plant Co. to bring botanical shop to East McKinney

Peridot Plant Co. is opening soon in East McKinney.

The business, owned by Maridith Stockmeyer, is part of the Build Your Own Business program at Tupps Brewery. The program offers vendor spaces in converted grain silos on the Tupps Brewery property for small businesses.

The details

The shop will offer botanical gifts, candles and ceramic plant holders. It will also have a large potting bench where guests can build their own terrariums and kokedamas, which are plants inside of a root ball of moss, Stockmeyer said, noting that the business will be “a place where people can come and create something with plants.”

The business will hold events at Tupps Brewery, including ticketed workshops and private events, for activities such as making terrariums.

“Peridot blends artful plant design within a creative, interactive space,” Stockmeyer said in an email.

Stockmeyer, who previously owned a shop in El Paso, Texas, said a trend inspired the shop’s build-your-own creative planting activities, and her desire to have a downtown McKinney store brought the shop to Tupps Brewery.

“There's no other shop like this in McKinney,” she said.
