Longtime Co. Springs business adjusts to new normal of online shopping

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KRDO) --Terra Verde in Downtown Colorado Springs has been a staple in the community for nearly three decades, but it's now participating in its first Cyber Monday.

The store has been operating for 28 years, but with a fresh website, it's taking part in the online shopping boom amid COVID-19.

Leah Riehl, co-owner of Terra Verde says sales this year have decreased, but their online presence has helped along with grants from the city.

“We’ve been fortunate enough to have support from our downtown community and the downtown partnership, we got a couple grants that are helping us through this year…but with those decrease sales, you know its not exciting, but doing the best we can to get through this year," said Leah Riehl.
