I especially enjoyed feeding the goats and seeing the large turtles and emus up close. They also have wild birds and cool sculptures/statues. The koi pond was nice, though the fish food was empty during our visit. There's also a little trail with a pond, bamboo and much more. While I wished they had a map, not having one made each turn feel like a fun surprise. A great spot for kids to wander around and explore.

Come for the plants, stay for the dinosaurs, and the birds, and the petting zoo, and the photo ops! Bring the kiddos! Buy a plant! I've got a yard full of palms and other tropicals from Pender Pines, and they do so well. Even though plants come with an amazing warranty, I've never had to return anything, ever! It's a great place to take a walk, and buy mermaid yard art! This place is marvelous! And the prices are great! It's a must-see spot, so grab lunch and picnic at Pender Pines.

One of my fellow participants in Silver Sneakers suggested that we try Carol Sue Farms for…read moredelicious strawberries. Today I decided to stop in after my silver sneaker's class and found it almost right across the street from Coastal Fitness where the class is held, so it's very convenient. Bought 2 containers of strawberries and each container weighed just a little over a pound and was priced at $3. When I got home, we decided to have some for lunch. Some of the strawberries were huge and there is no need to use sugar, they were so sweet, delicious. I definitely recommend Carol Sue Farms to as a place to get your strawberries, I know for sure that I'll be stopping by after classes to get more.

We gave Brad and his crew a $40,000+ project that included trees, irrigation, sod, bushes and 1…read morepalm tree. The palm tree was questionable from the start but we went with it per his guidance. The tree died shortly after 3 months (coincidently the allotted warranty period). Brad told us that he would not warranty the tree and it would be another $500 for a new one and $200 for removal of the old one. 4 of the bushes also look not well and it's questionable if they will make it or not. In addition, he tried to blame our irrigation system on the tree-death; which he also installed and it doesn't go anywhere near the tree. Call me crazy, but if someone just dropped $40K worth of work on my business, I'm going to warranty a $500 tree, no questions asked. Poor business on your part Brad. There's plenty of other options here in the area to choose from, you won't get our support going forward.

Incredible folks & amazing experience - Cindy is the best!…read more We looked around at different places for Palm-Trees (just wanted small ones & didn't have thousands to spend!). Cindy is a WEALTH of Palm Tree knowledge, this gal LOVES palm trees and treats each one like it has a SOUL. Even helped advise us on a couple other palms we got that we didn't buy there. Cindy walked us around the property & explained all the deets on each breed of tree/shrub. Answered so many questions - NEVER pushing a sale on us. We settled on 2 qty "3-4 footers" which were actually more like 5-6 (they measure the trunk for 3-4') and these 'baby' trees had great fronds on top. It's AMAZING to know that a 6-8 foot palm (sabal & many others) is around 50-years old???!!! We paid $180 ea, which IMHO was a fair price for this size tree. You can get install for $200/tree (may vary depending on tree size & delivery) and they had a $150 warranty per tree but that's avail. only if you purchase the install - it can add up fast, but we did have to ask 4 cross-fit friends to come help us move them - heavy root ball!

I thought i was going to have to get 6-8 cubic yards of high quality dirt for a project. The person I spoke with showed me a cheaper way, getting general fill dirt, then putting mortar sand on top. I was concerned at first about the fill dirt because past experiences other places, the dirt had sticks, rocks, and other things. The fill dirt I received had at most 10 sticks and no rocks. The sticks were small and easy to pick out. Another bonus, I got the dirt at the time it was scheduled to be delivered. There were no delays and they were able to place the dirt exactly where I wanted it. I definitely would recommend them as they are amazing, prompt, and easy to deal with.
