    The day of installation

    My husband and I were in need of a good place to purchase over 2,000 Square ft. Of sod for our very large yard. We looked at many different places and had chosen this place because they offered delivery and said they had been in business for over 20 years. We spent approximately $1,500 in sod alone and another couple thousands of dollars to have an irrigation system installed and have the dirt prepped and sod installed. The landscapers we hired for the job are very well known and do a lot of work for the city and the Bay Area. Immediately after the sod being placed we followed the instructions on not stepping on the sod and allowing the roots to attach and the watering was followed exactly as we were told. Not even a month after the installation we noticed large areas beginning to turn a different color. A few more weeks passed by and these areas completely began to die. Now a couple months after we literally have no sod left. I contacted the Manager and let her know of my concerns and sent her photos showing her and explaining what occurred. Her response was that its likely a water issue which makes no sense to me because we have sprinklers that turn on accordingly and water the sod. The same landscapers that did work on our home did work on a home just a block away and the sod they have is green and looks amazing! The difference was they purchased the sod for there home from a different company. We asked our landscapers what we could do they said the sod was completely done in nearly the entire yard and would not come back anymore. They told us they see this happen when the sod is not of good quality. The Manager of GDA Sod told me that there isn't anything they will do that the only thing that is required from there company is that the sod is fresh and of "good quality" upon delivery. Anything that happens after that is no longer there problem. She did not offer me any other resolution. After spending and investing so much into this and having such a terrible experience with this company We wanted to leave an honest review to prevent from this potentially happening to someone else. Thousands of dollars and time gone! Highly disappointed.

    We've purchased many a plant and tree over the years from this comprehensive nursery close to…read moreStockton and to Lodi. They offer a HUGE variety of healthy plants, trees, herbs, flowering plants (perennials and annuals) and other related supplies. We love our Kaffir lime tree, dwarf orange tree, apricot, and more which are still thriving and producing. We recently purchased some beautiful flowering groundcovers; and some herbs to expand our spice/herb garden. We appreciate their friendliness and knowledge about their expansive inventory such as best placement to plant, how much sun is needed, what to feed it, what soil works best, etc. Their inventory offers many options that are often not available elsewhere.

    Is your lawn suffering from wear and tear? Does it have uneven growth and invasive grass species…read moremessing with your vision of a baseball outfield lawn? Then come on down to the best nursery in town... "The Dutch" Just kidding. I'm trying to see what it would sound like if they had a Cal Worthington commercial type feel from back in the day. And if you know who Cal Worthington Chevrolet is then you just might be my age. Cut to the chase... So if you want the best sod for a newly landscaped yard, this is the place. High quality Delta Bluegrass is top notch and freshly cut. Easy to work with and excellent 2 x 5 pieces for easy calculations on square feet. Also, they have rocks easily loaded into your truck. The forklift guys are great! They dumped half a yard of rock into my Tacoma and didn't even drop a rock. Also, when I had the sod loaded in the bed the guy laid down the palate with a surgeon-like precision. Also, the staff (only one lady that I saw) was very knowledgeable and friendly. The quality of plants for indoor and outdoor is very good but I didn't have time to think about that since I was busy laying down sod to perfection. 290 square feet and no remnants and it looks marvelous!

    I've bought trees from Delta Tree Farms Inc before, and I just came back to purchase two more…read morebecause they're genuinely one of the best nurseries around. Their selection is HUGE. Fruit trees, ornamentals, evergreens, shade trees... You name it, they probably have it. Everything is healthy, well-labeled, and easy to walk through. I love that you can actually take your time, compare sizes, and see mature examples. The staff is always kind and patient, and you never feel rushed or pressured. They know their plants and are happy to answer questions. The prices are really fair for the quality, and my last tree (red maple) from them continues to grow beautifully, which is why I trusted them again. If you're looking for trees or landscaping plants, this is definitely the place to go. Highly recommend!

If you see my previous post I kept it cute. The way he treated me was bizarre. I had just left my garden in overalls and a bandana on my head ready to purchase some roses. Did he think I was poor plebe (Lodi can be snobby)? Or hates Black people? My friend (white) who watched from a distance was furious and called him out. I'll spend my money where I can just be myself and shop with folks who are down to earth because they in the earth.
