Earthbox is a garden center in Ellenton, Fl. off US-301 at 36th Street. The parking area is small…read morebut enough space for us during the week. I'm not sure how it would be on a weekend. Earthbox was developed by commercial farmers to make it easy for home gardeners. It is a type of growing system with self-watering containers that have a water reservoir built in that is capable of irrigating the plants for several days. The system says it doubles the yield, reduces water usage by 60% and uses 28% less fertilizer. I like that the box itself is made of recycled plastic and can be used year after year! The people working there are helpful and knowledgeable. I didn't know the tomatoes they had so someone helped me pick two. I also picked strawberry and broccoli plugs (already started small plant). They have classes on Wednesday and Saturday at 10am to explain the system and answer questions. I will definitely be back and recommend Earthbox Garden. I don't use the Earthbox system though will be looking into it. And this is the place to find out about it!

I've been visiting this garden center for years. They must be under new management. I didn't see…read morethe owner, his wife, or worker. The lady who helped us never asked:, "have you been here before? ", "Are you an experienced grower?" "What brings you in today?" Nothing. Just came up and started pointing out how they do things now, which is different than the way I was allowed to do things there, previously. she didn't say I'm new; this is the way we do it now." She started explaining planting techniques I've literally known since I'm 4 yo. Also, first time anyone ever pushed soil purchase there. (Of course I was never asked if I was unhappy with my soil or whether I have problem growing.) It felt condescending and wasted my time. I was the only customer there. New Management?

We are always happy when we can go there and we get great recommendations and guidance!read more

Linda was great about asking if there was going to be any irrigation problems where the generator will be placed. They know what they're doing.

Called back and spoke to John, said he'd call me back in 15 minutes. Never heard from him again. Called a third time, sent pictures and was told I'd have a price back that day.
