You'll get an answers from like: "I don't know", "why do you need to know that"..... so rude and unknowledgeable when it comes to their product. In short, I do not recommend this. If you like being talked down to, this place is for you.

The whole place is decorated beautifully and surprisingly clean for a garden center. They have about anything you would need to plant or decorate any outdoor space from the dirt to hanging plants and everything in between. The prices seemed on point for everything we purchased. I can not speak to how well the little garden plants we purchased will produce as this is the first time we have purchased plants here, so I will update in the fall.

Village Green used to be a good place to do business, but they have really gone down hill. We…read moreplaced an order on 3/13/25 for a special order for patio furniture. In years past, we payed half down and half on delivery. But after the change in ownership, they insisted that special orders require full payment; so we payed. They told us it would be 6-8 weeks for delivery. After 8 weeks, I called and inquired and they said it should be close to that delivery date. Their previous orders with that company have been close to 8 weeks, but they would check into it. I called at 10 weeks, still nothing but they promised to check. No one got back to me. I called again after 12 weeks and again they promised to check; but this time someone actually checked. What she discoved is that Village Green never placed by order until June 9th!! The only thing they said is we apologize.

I recently accidentally ordered the wrong kind of stone and called panicking and got voicemail, and they called me back! I can't praise this business enough.

I purchased a tree from Ack Ack that was installed in late May. Within one week the leaves began to…read moreturn brown and fall from the tree. I reported this to Ack Ack and after a review I was told the tree looked fine, this after most of the leaves had fallen. An Illinois office of Agriculture saw the leaves and determined it was apple scab and I received a diseased tree. I was told nothing would be done and to wait until next year.It would probably recover if I sprayed it several times. Again I was told that the tree looked fine. I would caution any buyer to avoid rhis vendor. If the tree is healthy all is okay, but if you have a problem, they do not respond to help or replace diseased items. I can only give Ack Ack one star. Buyer beware.

Meh. There is a very tall young man with reddish/strawberry-blondish hair who seems knowledgeable…read moreand is super helpful - if you go, try to get him to help. The man (older, middle-aged) who helped me has no apparent gardening knowledge. Any time I ask him a question, his responses are along the lines of "that should be okay", or "I've seen that". Really?! He does not instill confidence at all. My next concern is that he changed the price on the tree I chose. On my 1st visit he was not sure of the price so he double-checked, and that extra step and discussion made the price very clear to me, and I still wrote it down so I would remember. Apparently, when he went back to the office (where the customer cannot see what he's doing), he wrote it up for $20 more than he quoted me. When I came back to get my tree, he told me it was $20 more than he quoted me before. Of course he offered to cancel my purchase, but I had already invested in the cost of renting a truck, so canceling and buying elsewhere would have cost even more. Unfortunately, they have been the only nursery I have found in the area that sells fruit trees so I have to go back (ugh!) and when I do, I will certainly make them provide me the agreed upon price in writing. Also, I will try to get help from the nice young man instead of the older man who clearly can't be trusted. Buyer beware. The only additional thing I will buy will be my fruit trees. I'll find another nursery for the rest of my landscaping.

I have been here multiple times before. Usually for their Mother's Day weekend events, shopping for fall porch pots and some place to visit when people come to town. This time I came for the Galentines event. What a great time and worth the $60. There was a cocktail/mocktail creation ghat we learned how to make a signature holiday drink while munching on an enormous charcuterie spread. Then it was off to the other side of the beautiful space to create a valentine vase. All the while being taught how to create an amazing bouquet. I loved that we could ask questions along the way and learn new ideas and how to. After the event we shopped the boutique and took photos with the cutest backdrops. I drive an hour to this amazing place and it's always worth the trip.
