After several years of hiring for mulch installation and other landscape work, only to have so-so…read moreresults and perennial plant casualties, I found Fresh Roots! After meeting with Alec and learning more about the company, I knew I wanted to work with them! They installed new mulch, tackled invasive weeds, converted an empty space into a native planting bed, graded and seeded, and installed stone trench to divert water from neighbors' yard away from our yard. The hard working, knowledgeable team of David, Sunny and Brandon arrived right on time and completed it all! It looks great and I'm already thinking about what else they can help me cross off the project list!

All of it, from my first text message to owner Alec to completion of project…read more This is the second spring I have hired this team for yard work and they are all so friendly and polite and know their product and how it will fit my plans. The finished product, planting soil for my gardens and mulching several areas of the yard , look great and the cleanup was appreciated.

Nathan is knowledgeable and is willing to go above and beyond for his customers. Best of all, they have very reasonable prices. Take the drive or give Nathan a call, I promise you won't regret it!

This is a warehouse store with very high end lawn furniture. The furniture is excellent, and if…read moremoney is no object, this is the lawn furniture for you. The outdoor chairs here are actually more than I spent on my living room furniture, the patio sets are five times more than my car is worth. The price tag matches the quality, but it's sure not for working class heroes. The set up is odd, when I dropped in a couple of young men sales uniforms came running out of some back room after I was wandering around for a bit and asked me what I was doing. I realize I'm not the complexion of their average customer, but still it seemed to be a little inappropriate. The way they came in from whatever it was that they were doing...I think I should have been the one to ask them, but anyway I can't afford this stuff. If you can, then you should, it's obviously well made and well stocked here.

Finally went to this wonderful greenhouse after hearing about it particularly since I moved to…read moreMilwaukee. Nestled in Riverwest, it is a bit of a magical place. All the plants. All around. Not sure what is reasonable or pricey for a plant, but most of them seemed fair to me. Although I did have to put back a string of pearls succulent. A little pricey, and I know I would kill this beauty. It was nice to just wander about without anyone trying to be overly helpful. Took my time and found some new plants for my apartment. Which will not die on me!! The staff, at checkout, were very friendly and efficient. I will definitely go back. Great succulent selection which I have a soft spot for.

Very helpful staff, amazing selection of plants, and just an overall fantastic experience!read more

Went here last night for a potting class. We made butterfly planters. Included with the class was…read morea planter, planting soil, and six known plants that are known to attract butterflies and hummingbirds. Four your 7th plant, you got to choose between dahlias or fennel. I chose the fennel for mine. The class even had 2 instructors who explained every plant and continuously walked around to check on everyone's work, making sure your plants were planted deep enough, or not to shallow. The class was $55 pp. For their classes it is best to call to reserve a spot. This was my first time here and I was blown away by the size of this place. It was like a huge maze with several greenhouses. Their plants did look colorful and healthy. They are definitely family orientated so bring the kids. In one of the greenhouse, there is a huge train set that continuously runs through several model villages, hills, tunnels and landscapes. There is also a small cafe, where you can take a break, This is family owned and all plants are grown on site.

We missed our holiday visit last year, but this year was a delight yet again! Beyond the epic…read moreamount of trees, herbs, plants, and (specifically right now) poinsettia offerings, you'll also find a whole storefront upon entry with goodies like ornaments, gifts, garden utensils and more. Oh and they also offer various garden services, events, and workshops. Certainly a big place too! Beyond the main building, we ventured into the train room that is incredible for all ages. The display is massive, surrounded by a walkway to make your way around. You really have to see if for yourself to grasp how vast and detailed it is. Definitely recommend coming by at some point to see the masterpiece in action. Love that it's locally owned, so well-kept, and very inviting. All of the staff are friendly and helpful as can be!

Beautiful flowers and easy ordering! Would definitely recommend and would use them again.read more

Not only is the farm family run (by a spectacular multigenerational family I might add), but it's filled with all the magic and mystery of the season in the best ways possible. I can't imagine the stress of running a seasonal operation, one where people only consider the here and now and don't recognize the YEAR LONG process that organizing, setting up, planning, creating takes but the O'Malleys do it flawlessly and every year surprise and delight us beyond compare. We love kicking off the holiday season with a trip to the farm to pick up a Christmas tree but more than that, we love the festive and unique experience they offer for us and our three little kids. Let's start with the FREE inclusions...big bonfires, pictures with Santa, hot chocolate and popcorn, shots of Jameson for the moms and dads just trying to stay warm this and every holiday season, funny and cute little holiday headbands (which are such a hit with the littles), holiday photo ops, and the scavenger hunt hayride, which is a family favorite. Then add on the special little extras like snacks (pretzels, churros, chili?!), and s'mores, and even PHOTOS WITH SANTAS REINDEER?!! It's truly like seeing your childhood dreams become a reality. If you haven't had a chance to visit, please do! You and your children (or just your inner child) will thank you!
