Greetings from Greentuge— 
In the year 1850, John C. W. Greening came to the United 
States and settled on an acre of rented ground. A century iater four 
generations have succeeded him in the enterprise which now covers 
approximately one thousand acres. 
Clinging to the simple objectives of the founder—to work 
hard, work well . . . and remember your responsibility to those with 
whom you deal . . . the Greening organization is mighty proud of 
our slogan 
“Born 1850 — Still Growing” 
To our customers, many thanks for your past patronage. To 
our new friends may we say ‘’Greetings from Greening’s.”’
