The lumber yard along Route 46 was also the local stop for paint, doors, windows, mason supplies, shovels, and more.

Cathy Cerbo told the Daily Record that the property has been sold to a local developer. Plans for the site are still in the works, she said.

The family's greenhouse and garden center is still up and running in Parsippany, along with a nursery in Newton and a seasonal tree farm in Branchville.
