Really really great place! I cannot say enough about this place! If you’re looking for a great little country market with plenty of everything, this is it! It is an exceptional place if you want to bring friends or family from out of town, especially their pineapple machine! The produce is fresh and pretty exceptional! Definitely plan on visiting this place quite often!

Went here to get a last minute birthday gift for my wife. Tried to order a plant online from another vendor but it didn't arrive on time and this place is on the way home from work. Mariah saved the day. She was really really nice and offered me assistance picking out something based on my lack of knowledge of plants and what I was looking for for my wife. She helped me out soil and her kindness was infectious. Behind me ask for assistance too and we all just chatted for a few minutes and perhaps the pots. I gave the leftover soil to another customer. That is kind of experience that makes people want to come back. By the way it may be good to work with local schools or community organizations and just write off the wasted plans if they're burned by the s u n because it is very hot today. It may also be a good idea to have pottery classes for events. It brighten my day to get that help feel less uncomfortable environment that I'm not used to. You guys should have birthday cards LOL.

I got up early to go to Pates after googling what time they open as it says 8 AM. When I got there a little after 8 AM, I noticed that the garden does not open until 9 AM it’s just the store thats open at 8 AM. I asked if I could talk to a manager to share amicably that it might be customer friendly to have on Google that your garden hours start at 9 AM. That it’s disappointing to show up and it’s not open without any representation of what time the garden opens. The produce manager response immediately was passive aggressive, Cavalier and meant to create a power struggle. “Well it’s on our FB.” (I don’t even use Facebook? That’s not really where I would rely on having that information IMO.) My response back was I think it’d be better on Google though so people don’t show up too early as not everyone has or checks FB. His response was well for 24 years. That’s how it’s always Been the garden opens at 9 AM. I said OK so for 24 years you guys haven’t been able to put it on Google? He says well I thought it was. (Not receptive or seeming to understand why I’m bringing it up) I explained I think it’s a good idea because someone like myself is going to show up and not wait till 9am for

Average to high prices, hard to get anyone to help you, they seem indifferent to customer service. I found some fun plants. It is better than Lowe's. Pretty average.

Great selection of plants and flowers for gardeners. The market has fresh and frozen options as well as ready to eat meals
