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.

I have two ponds in my backyard both of which I built myself…read more Five Star was a very helpful resource in terms of equipment and material. I purchased the liners, hoses, and pumps from them. The staff assigned to this department is knowledgeable and helpful. I recently had to replace a pump due to a problem outside of anyone's control. When I got the pump home I realized I'd purchased one that was undersized in terms of GPH. Not only was it easy to return but I was able to purchase the exact pump I needed that they had 'used' for a sweet discount. They are good folks, and it's worth the drive from Springfield. They also have plants and flowers etc. One negative thing; a few years ago I bought a water plant there for one of my ponds. The thing was/is evil. It invaded the whole pond with runners under rocks and through the water and it choked out the bog area. Even though I'd gotten rid of 95% of it, chutes still continue to pop up. I refuse to move out all the field stone to try to 'get it all'. Live and learn (to research before you drop it in the water.)

We engaged Five Star to redo the entire area, rebuild our stone wall, add a water feature and a fire pit, lay pavers and generally grade and resurface the area. We are extremely pleased with the result - it is so much more than we even dreamed it could be. The team was very responsive to our needs, listening to us and making suggestions. Their ideas were spot on for us and if we wanted to change or add something, they were able to work with that. There was great communication at all times, they showed up when the said they would and they kept us aware of their schedule as well. The work was meticulous - the pondless waterfall and the rock wall are works of art in our opinion. They also took great care to make sure that water would flow away from the house and not into our basement. We highly recommend them to anyone who is looking to have any of this type of work done and would be happy to answer any questions if people have them.
