And we have two small children (one in private nursery school)We feel stuck.  

Local nurseries deliver the mulch for free you buy 2+ yards.

We have a great nursery near my house, and I want to get over there and talk to folks about the oats and buffalo grass alternatives, and see if they have any other suggestions.I'm trying to work out if this makes sense as a flip.

I thought this was interesting because it shows the state of mind of the general public.I just called to order berry plants from a wholesale nursery and was told that everything was completely sold out.

Thankfully we had extra flooring that we were able to put down in place of the water logged carpet in the freshly finished nursery in our unit.

The goal for the land is to start a small composting operation/nursery.

Yes i learned this when i bought a foreclosure  Acreage with some nursery stock on it..

My advice would be to call it an office or nursery depending on who you think your prospective tenants are. 

More specific ideas for business that still operate these days: scrubs shop, medical equipment, bikes shop, pet stores, hardware stores, nurseries, beauty supplies, dollar stores, cannabis store (if legal in your state) or CBD products store, vape/smoke shops, doughnut stores, Fitness equipment store, pop-up COVID testing centers.Bonus round:If your location has a big parking lot, you can set up a "movie drive-in" on some nights and have the businesses in the strip serve the food/drinks.

A current client of mine EVEN had to pay a nursery/supply yard for sod that his landscaper bought on account, that was delivered to the property, after the landscaper never paid the nursery/supply yard.
