About Us
The corner of Joplin Avenue and Jensen highway has been home to a greenhouse since the 1960s. After the original owners decided to retire in 1994, we purchased the business and have been operating River Run Greenhouse ever since. We take pride in being a family-owned business, and our team is dedicated to providing the Hot Springs area with an excellent variety of plants and garden accessories.
We are licensed by the State of South Dakota and strive to make your shopping and planting experience a happy one and look forward to helping you for years to come.
In 2024, we celebrated our 30th year in business. No small feat! We appreciate our wonderful customers and can’t wait to show you what we have planned for 2025 and beyond!
Our Team
Caitlyn Mosset Owner, President
Caitlyn grew up spending every spring in the greenhouse, and eventually she became helpful with more than just carry-out and worm collecting. After years as the hired help, she took over in 2017. Caitlyn is our go-to when it comes to helping customers design the best planting for their specific yard. She’s also a house plant aficionado and can share all her best tips for keeping them alive.
Caitlyn’s favorite plants: Monarda and Stock
Cathy Mosset Owner, CFO
Cathy purchased the greenhouse in 1994 from its original owner, Marv. With the help of great friends like Dee, Rosie and Jolin, she ran the greenhouse for years until her daughter, Caitlyn, took over in 2017. Cathy loves to spend mornings in her extensive wildflower garden. She is the greenhouse’s resident plant expert and can still be seen roaming the flower aisles from time to time.
Cathy’s favorite plants: Echinacea and Zinnias
Nyla Buchholz Customer Experience Officer
Nyla’s bubbly personality is contagious, and she brings with her a lifelong love of gardening. She strives to make sure every customer leaves happy! It is in her blood after all! Her mother, Dee, was our chief plant lady for over 20 years. We are excited to have her back again this year.
Nyla’s favorite plants: Gaillardia & Dahlia
Lauren Weiss Owner, Marketing Guru
Along with her sister, Lauren grew up in the greenhouse. As our resident creative, she loved using the rhubarb patch out back to craft her own princess costumes back in the day. Lauren recently moved back to Hot Springs and is ready to get her hands dirty.
Lauren’s favorite plants: Iris and Larkspur
Myron Mosset Maintenance
Keeping a 60-year-old greenhouse together in one piece is no easy task, but Myron works tirelessly every spring to prepare the building for the upcoming season. You’ll often spot him around the property taking care of our beloved greenhouse or helping unload plant shipments.
Myron’s favorite plants: Cherry Bomb Peppers
Dick Vollmuth Quality Control
Dick is not one of those retired guys that can sit at home, so he can often be seen popping by the greenhouse. Whether watering, or performing quality control on our popsicle stash, Dick is happy to help (as long as there isn’t a pickleball game going somewhere in town).
Dick’s favorite plants: Tomatoes & Roses
Part Time Associates
Along with our main crew, our full team of plant lovers put their all in to keeping our clients happy and our plants healthy, doing everything from watering to unloading trucks in the dark, delivering manure or prepping the building in the Spring. They are a much-appreciated part of our greenhouse family and we couldn’t do it without them.
