"There was a shopping mall Now it's all covered with flowers…read moreNow, it's nothing but flowers" (The Talking Heads) We wanted to plant some flowers around our mailbox, and ended up at Coward Farms to see what we could come up with. It was my first visit, and I was amazed at the thousands of varieties of stunningly colorful annuals, perennials, hanging baskets, and more. Rows and Rows of beautiful flowers everywhere. We ended up buying four flats of pretty pink and purple perennials @ $2.95/flat. The Raspberry Parfait Dianthus will really beautify our mailbox. They also have a store with all sorts of home decor and furnishings. Note that Coward Farms is open during the year in three distinct time periods - Spring from May 1st - July 3rd, Fall from Sept. 1st - Oct. 31st and Christmas -starting the Friday after Thanksgiving.

So glad that I finally found Coward Farms! It's well worth the 30min drive from my home in Canton,…read moreCT. Coward's always has every plant I am looking for - even newer Proven Winner breeds that the nurseries around me here in CT don't carry....AND, at a fraction of the price! The prices are amazing! And thank you to all the helpful staff who are always willing to answer my questions, give me advice, and at one point, even direct me to a competitor's nursery for a late-in-the-season plant they were temporarily out of. Coward's is a class-act business

I recently moved nearby and was curious about this Farm's offerings. My review exclusively focusses…read moreon the food-related Farm-stand part of the business. They sell plants and flowers, but I didn't pay attention to that aspect of their operations. Cold Spring sells some of their own produce, products from other CT Farms and/or Orchards, Cold Spring branded products such as salsa, and other area products such as bread from a local bakery. I bought green cabbage, peaches, celery and salsa. Everything seemed appropriate quality for seasonal CT produce. The produce I didn't buy also looked good and represented what's in season pretty well. I will definitely go back for in season produce since I live in the area. This is an observation as opposed to a criticism. The reason I'm giving Cold Brook 4 Stars rather than 5 Stars relates to the extent of their offerings compared to another Farm Stand I frequently visit that's a bit farther away. That Farm Stand has a wide range of partnerships with high end CT businesses and they have things like high quality bagels, cheeses, pies, cupcakes, ice cream sandwiches, etc. That Farm Stand also has a wider range of canned goods, meats, and dairy products etc. I would travel farther to a Farm Stand like that because there are more products that interest me. Cold Spring will be the place I go for convenience when I want in season produce for a few days.

3 glorious seasons of the year you can find starter flats and baskets here at Cold Spring Broom…read more Annuals, perennials, and garden starters are all here! As they price individually and in sets, you may end up bringing home more plants than planned, but this is a good spot to get it all started. We now have a glorious set of tomatoes in progress, and now a couple extra tomato planters. The double decker wagons all over also help you take home more. The little farm store, extra colorful with its murals, has honey, maple syrup, salsa, and maybe more on down the season. It's neat to see start and end of season at the checkout, and the staff was kind. Thankfully there is extra parking is on both sides of the farm store, in case you're driving East, just look out for wagon traffic on your way through each greenhouse.

I asked him if he could help me. I told him I was looking for a specific plant. He takes his hand and he waves his hand to all the plants in the nursery. It's like I bothered him. What a wise guy! I should've called him on his behavior, but I let it go. Then I asked him where the wisteria was. He was working close to the Wisteria so then he pointed to it. He needs an attitude adjustment. He was very rude. I don't know if I'm gonna go back to the garden barn and I've been going there for years. I hope not all of your employees are like this.
