Joy: New England Nurseries in Bedford, MA has remained a…read moremagical happy place for years. Beautiful Perennials, Annuals, & Shrubs have all remained healthy, & instructions for optimal growth are attached. Convenient location right on Concord Rd is a bonus. Wandering the lanes -- with such a sumptuous range -- reminds me that "Joy is not meant to be a Crumb".* Need To Know: Many plants include valuable details, such as: Attractive to Pollinators; Repels Mosquitoes; No deadheading blossoms required; Deer Resistant; 6-8 hours of Direct Sun needed. Good to know. More Planting Info: Because most Plants are arranged by category in beautifully marked lanes -- sun, shade, perennial, annual, native -- finding fundamental info is simple. More details are always easily found online, too. Goats! Visiting sweet & frisky rescue goats Ben & (yep!) Jerry is a pleasure: climbing rocks, munching hay, encouraging petting. Ah! Simple fauna pleasures among so many floral treasures. Dear elderly Fluffernutter is a goat 90 in human years, enjoying attention as a sweet-natured senior. Planting Questions Rating: I remain so puzzled by negative comments about customer service. I've found help to be accessible, valuable, & informative, even near closing time & when especially busy. My questions would annoy most nurseries, but planting instructions included are not always specific enough. Examples of rookie questions that have been answered pleasantly, even by phone: My Rookie Questions: How may I plant autumn Tulip bulbs that won't be devoured? (Consider Daffodils.) Will 'Million Bells' (Calibrachea) need to be covered if nights dip below 45? (Depends. Is location sheltered?) Can Pansies tolerate light frost? (Yes.) What should soil temperature remain to plant spring tubers for glorious Dahlias? (50° F. or warmer.) Impatiens? (60° F. lowest). What I Don't Ask: I only ask questions if not clearly marked on plant -- yet extra info provided helps, like knowing newly-planted Dahlia tubers do need watering if rain penetration depth is insufficient. (Want Dinner-Plate Dahlias in August? Stick a finger into soil an inch or so in spring. Dry? Tuber or plant needs more water: Rain wasn't enough.) Addendum: I have not purchased trees or landscaping materials, so cannot judge customer service for them. Quality & selection appear exceptional, & friends who have bought them were happy with results. Summary? I Love New England Nurseries. _________________________________ * Quote: Mary Oliver poem: "Joy is not meant to be a Crumb."

Be sure to check out the adorable store too that features Christmas ornaments, seasonal trinkets, homemade wreaths, and fresh apple cider and donuts. Of note, cash is the only accepted form of payment, so make sure to stop by the ATM first!

I had the chance to stop by their Strawberry Festival last month and it was an enjoyable event…read more Unfortunately given the 1 lane road either way they caused their own traffic jam in/out and ran out of parking in the main lot. My friend and I wound up in the overflow a little after 11am when the event started. I've always seen signs around when I'm driving in the area for other events or goods that they are selling. In the fall they seem especially popular as well for pumpkins and fall activities. The market area is brightly lit. Given the neighborhood, as everyone else has commented expect prices to be at a premium. The samples we tried at the Strawberry Festival were tasty. My favorite was the short cake. They also offered tickets at $1/ticket for some other paid offerings such as their ice cream which I skipped. They had someone dressed up as the Green Monster so that was a fun photo op for the family too. The event had a lot of staff so each station was moving. In fact one of the owners/managers came by seeing a long queue near the entrance by the pasta said we could walk around to the other stations since no one should be waiting in a line (ignore the line to park and get in haha.) I wouldn't necessarily go out of my way to visit but it's an option for local. I've also gone to Wagon Wheel which is smaller for seasonal / market type items.
