Benedict’s Home & Garden

They have all the basics that you need here. From farming to gardening, it’s a good place to start. The garden section has much improved and I would like it if they brought back more of their cement urns and pedestals. Prices are standard. The cement item prices are pretty good. Admittedly, they seem to have a lot of knickknacky stuff that’s unnecessary and collects dust.
Family run, friendly folks who are not overly intrusive. They have good quality soil, plants and mulch. What more can you ask for? Feed and chickens are also available. Used to have a better selection of Bogs etc. but their product lines change year to year and I’m a bit disappointed in the boots and gloves selections of late. Quality tools and gardening chemicals that you won’t find at the Home Depot. Bonus!
Hours have improved though I do wish they were open a little later.
Customer loyalty program will keep you coming back! That’s a nice touch.

Recently visited this facility. It was really well staffed with knowledgable people and quite helpful. I was thrilled with the quality of the plantings I purchased as well as the staff. My back is bad and they carried everything out and loaded up my car. I would say the selection is enormous and I think I will go back again and again.

My favorite garden center for many reasons! I just started taking an interest in outdoor landscaping about 5 years ago when we purchased our home (which was basically a blank canvas). Naturally, I have tons of questions for maintaining and upgrading our yard. The Benedict’s staff is friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. We receive their flier in the mail which advertises sales and special events. I also purchase Wellness and California Natural dog food at a very reasonable price. Benedict’s also seems to be very involved with the community… they’ve hosted a fall children’s music & arts festival, class field trips, and build a giant hay maze each year for kids to enjoy. Children can also visit the animals (peacocks, goats, turkeys, etc.) and duck pond with a little bridge around back. I try to take advantage of any opportunity I have to support a local business and this one is above average. There have been rare occasions when I’ve had no errands to run on my lunch hour and I’ve simply spent that time browsing through their greenhouse on a beautiful day. Visit the Benedict’s website, I’m sure they offer many more things I’m not even aware of!
