Stephannie - General Manager
Retiring from her 35 years as a high school chemistry teacher, Stephannie is excited to bring her love and knowledge of plants and gardening to Kalleco Nursery. Growing up helping her mother who was a florist and now being an avid gardener herself, she has a lot to offer, including her positive attitude and contagious smile. When she is not teaching chemistry or running the nursery, Stephannie loves to walk her dogs and teaches several fitness classes. Fun fact - once upon a time Mark Masseo (Kalleco's Owner) was one of Stephannie's chemistry students as well.

Kalle - Landscape/Nursery Crew

Kalle has worked at the nursery and on the landscape crew for a few summers now, but really has been around for 16 years watching her father grow these two businesses into what they are today. She loves the variety in her work schedule, one day she is installing irrigation at the nursery, and the next installing a bluestone patio on a job site. When she isn't working or studying for school, Kalle plays soccer year round at school and on a travel team, and also plays basketball and lacrosse. Funny enough, she puts the Kalle in Kalleco Nursery!

When he is not at work Cole can be found playing baseball and basketball or spending time with family and friends. He is also self proclaimed the best Fortnite player in the 845.
