What a great selection of "Everything Garden" - huge selection of plants, furniture, tools, rock, sculptures
Jacqueline S.

What a lovely oasis! Friendly helpful staff, beautiful scenarios-you can imagine just how it will look in your garden. Lots of hints and tips from the enthusiastic garden team at this location. The sun /garden umbrellas are on sale in a variety of colors & there are many other sale items! The plants are healthy and a beautiful addition to the patio!

Had an AWESOME morning at Miner's today taking advantage of the huge 20% sale! I came yesterday and Barb showed me some of the gorgeous new Thai Constellation Monsteras that came in which I've been looking for in SLO for months! I came back this morning to buy one (amongst tons of other plants) and before I checked out, Jessica kindly showed me that she had one with even better variegation that had been on hold, but was left, and I was able to switch mine out for an even better one! Such sweet and helpful employees, such a great selection. Very excited to see some rare plants on sale in SLO, I will definitely be back! :)

Grape vine

Got this beautiful grape vine at Ace today, I am so excited to get my first batch of grapes soon! A wonderful member of the nursery team named Jessica helped me find the best one

While I do like the large succulent selection here, some of the service from management here was not friendly near closing time. There was a rush, "you are bothering us" feel to it, which is at odds with all the other Miners in SLO County. While SLO-town is not exactly the big city, at the very least one would expect at least the same friendly service at a big box store, like HD. Why pay a premium for someone being rude to you? Spontaneous service was also totally lacking and no one helped me even after looking for an hour at plants. It was slow and not busy at all. Some of the prices for pots were way out of line, even as so-called specials. While I may go here for succulents in the future, I will defer all other purchases for the other Miner's locations, True Value, or even HD...such as soil. It is odd that one can even find a place that one would partially want to boycott in the SLO area [which in general has at least decent to great service]. Hopefully, the owner can look into some of the workplace conditions and improve customer service. It could be that I am spoiled by the many super nice staff at the other Miners locations in AG, Grover, and even Los Osos/ Morro Bay...not to mention HD in SLO & Atascadero, and the True Value or even OSH in AG. If I am going to pay more than HD, the premium should go for good, friendly, and knowledgeable service. If one is looking for a good succulent selection plus great service, the Miners in AG is the best in their chain, and the True Value in AG/Pismo is quite wonderful. Sometimes the big city attitude visits some places in SLO-town in some chains, but management should know better. It is not like tourists go to local hardware stores, so who knows what this is about? It could have been a really off day for all I know...but a new sort of review from low to high seems to show a consistent pattern of [poor service related] customer complaints & issues with management for the past few years...which is simply sad for our area. In general, I think many of us would appreciate all people at least acting more friendly toward each other. Poor service by some employees really ruins the workplace for the good employees, since the bar is so low. In any case, I did find a nice assortment of succulents here, but I felt a bit like a sucker for shopping here....since all other plant-carrying places had better service, including HD, not to mention specialty nurseries, farmers markets, farm stands, and such.

MIner's is a fantastic store for hardware & related items, lumber & building materials, and a great indoor & outdoor garden department. All the employees are very friendly and can tell you exactly where an item is located. Many of the associates can also advise how best to use an item. The prices are a little bit higher than major chains, but one cannot usually get this level of assistance in a big box store. They have frequent store-wide sales such as 20% off, or anything-one-can-fit-in-a-bag sales. Definitely join their rewards program to receive special savings & coupons.

The beautiful scenery makes me a returning customer. My dog always appreciates the natural environment this location offers.

My reviews, recommendations and comments about how the company in general can improve customer volume was done all the way back on 2/27/2025 from the times of 7:00p.m. - 8:30p.m. through the zoom platform. Even though this was a late time frame during business hours, I still kept my end of the deal and attended the Zoom meeting to help improve the Farm Supply Company from a potential customers standpoint. I did rate the company honestly and gave feedback as to how Farm Supply can improve customer acquisition. The WARNING to potential customers is to be Very WEARY and CAUTIOUS about the Farm Supply Company in general! I say this because The Farm Supply Company has not paid me until now 4/21/2025! I want to reiterate that I did the survey meeting with a representative of the Farm Supply Company way back in 2/27/2025! The third party agency that connected me to rate the Farm Supply has made multiple attempts to have the company pay me a small incentive for my time doing the Zoom survey. The company has repeatedly made several excuses as to why the payment had NOT come through, with all the excuses finally running out! If the Farm Supply Company can do this to me, I want to alert potential customers of the way they conduct business. If purchasing something from that store PLEASE be Extremely Weary of their return policy, and how they may potentially come up with several excuses as to why they cannot accept the return. They also do a lot of overcharging of their merchandise to an exorbitant amount compared to their other competitors like The Home Depot, Lowe's Home Improvement and Ace Home and Garden. I want to give my suggestion of being WEARY and CAUTIOUS of potentially shopping their because I would not like to see potential customers being taken advantage of like the way they did to me for giving my honest and constructive criticism. Please be Safe and Very Cautious of their potential up-sales! Be Safe and CAUTIOUS if potentially shopping at their overpriced stores!

They have a big yard area out back with larger goods like pedal boats and kayaks, and all at reasonable prices. We stopped by for a dog fence and examined all the outside goods first, then made our way inside to the dog area. We did find just what we were looking for, but had to search for a staff person who then reluctantly scanned the two that we were interested in. We asked for help loading, but he just said that the wagons were by the door. We hefted the dog fence to the register where they rang it up promptly. There were no more carts available, and one of the issues with this store is that there is little to no parking, especially around noon to two on weekdays and most weekends as the parking lot also serves the SLO Public Market.

I'm headed back over there shortly for some trough to use as raised garden beds, they have the best quality in the area and for you sure can't beat their prices compared to Meyer brothers or Ace Hardware.
