Downtown Home and Garden

It's used to store seasonal items, and also houses his wife's art studio as well as Hodesh's office, which he refers to as "world headquarters." Only part of the building has a basement where several horse stalls still exist. Hodesh uses the space to store Christmas trees and potatoes. He says that when he bought the building, there were seven layers of doors leading to the basement. Mark Hodesh owner of Downtown Home and Garden, offered tours today of his historic building.

This is not sanitary and a violation of food prep laws. If it truly is to be a stand-alone "cart" set up then this needs to be addressed. If it is a "cart" attached to a building with a sink, then it would be better. If 2 people work the cart, it's better, one for cash and one for food, but access to a sink to wash hands during food prep is mandatory. The idea came to him late last summer, after the long-time tenant of the Union Building left. The 3,000-square-foot building is being renovated to accommodate a commercial kitchen, which will be used by the cart owners, Hodesh said.

Ashley was erected in the mid 1890s for Mann and Zeeb Elevator, a supplier of field seed for farmers and grain for poultry. The Hertler family purchased the business in 1906, renamed it Hertler Brothers, and held onto the property for sixty-nine years. The barn they built on the south side in 1908 was at first used as a livery stable.

While he has not yet signed leases with the food cart operators, Hodesh has had strong interest. Your home in trusted hands because licensed experts in Ann Arbor promise to take care of everything for you. Watch for Saturday events, such as workshops on potting and transplanting or jam and jelly tastings. The 2008 jam tasting was scheduled for Oct 4; entries due by Oct 3. DTH&G has an extensive selection of flower and vegetable seeds in the spring, and plentiful bulbs in the fall. Housewares also tend to be stocked in seasonal patterns, with canning supplies multiplying at the end of the summer.

Downtown Home & Garden

Downtown Home & Garden, on Ashley Street, is run by Mark Hodesh, a long-term townie who opened the Fleetwood Diner in 1971. Formerly the Hertler Brothers feed store, Downtown HG carries high-quality housewares and gardening supplies, as well as bulbs, seeds, and potted plants. "We are a product of where and what we are, and the history of this building comes out of the pores," said Hodesh. "The farmers are gone. Now our customers are urban gardeners and gourmet cooks. We've even taking on clothing lines for this coming fall." Your home in trusted hands because licensed landscaping pros in Ann Arbor promise to take care of everything for you.

I too enjoy the store but have noticed an obvious change in the nature of the sales staff. Certainly not as friendly and welcoming as years past. They are so friendly and knowledgeable and always help me find the item I'm looking for. Hodesh still refers to the wide open space in the building as the barn, and the remaining part of Downtown Home and Garden as "the store." Downtown Home remained open throughout the pandemic. This should make doing business possible for many small, local people.

While the food carts won’t begin operation until April for this season, Hodesh wants future seasons to run from March to late November. The area will include some covering but will not be enclosed. Work on the area began in late fall but halted with the winter weather.

Ashley next door, asked if she was interested in assuming Three Chairs’ lease there. South University District is classic "college town" neighborhood, perfect for strolling. Home to one of the world’s best law libraries, this gorgeous campus space is a popular spot for picnics and pictures.

While each cart owner will set their own hours, Hodesh said he expects breakfast, lunch and dinners to be available. Hodesh said he expects to begin signing leases in February. Kudos to Mark who helps make Ann Arbor a great place through Downtown H&G! It's a great store with lots of vitality and creativity. I'd like to put in a request for a gluten-free food cart. If you were really concerned you could do some research concerning mobile food vendors and their licensing requirements.

It will also be a smooth transition between the residential and downtown neighborhoods, he said. DTH&G is also the home of Lewis the Cat, a local celebrity to the under-10 set. It's a nice store with interesting items for sale, so an unfriendly atmosphere doesn't help sales. The building was constructed in the mid-1890s and first named the Mann and Zeeb Elevator, which supplied field seed for farmers and grain for the poultry many residents on the West Side kept. Some of the original shelves and wood floors are still there along with an old grain elevator. In 2015, Hodesh sold the business to Vore, an employee.

All carts require a handwash sink and must meet Washtenaw County health dept requirements regarding handwashing. Besides, if you only knew what happens at the restaurants you eat at. Not every place that serves food is 100% every time. Please before you make commentary on subjects you do not know, do a little research.
