My partner has a brown/black thumb when it comes to plants, so she was super thrilled that she actually got one to live and thrive. We had checked out another nursey, which generally we love going to because the grounds are nice and they have a huge selection, but their pottery wasn't quite what we were looking for. At Terra Gardens, we found the same pottery as the other location, but also plenty of other styles. And, we noted, the prices were significantly less at Terra Gardens. My partner found a pot that she fell in love with. We wandered with our children some, but I don't think we hit half of the location. We were running errands all over that day, but we look forward to coming back and seeing what else is here. Especially now that my partner is more and more interested in taking up gardening and planting.

The shop is nicely organized and I felt safe in being inside the store given Covid-19. I am just starting to learn about inside plants including terrarium building. My only suggestion to the store would be a bit more friendly and helpful when a customer asks questions. I ended up spending nearly $200 in the store including items for my first terrarium. I asked about how to best plant within the terrarium since the opening was so small and the worker made me feel like I was asking a silly question. I ended up watching a few YouTube videos which was super helpful. I think my first attempt turned out awesome!!

Well it could be any of the unique handcrafted gifts in the shop, from locally made soap, a new pair of earrings or a stained glass sun catcher. There were so many things to tempt me, but the best part of my visit was learning about the classes offered. They just wrapped up Chinese Calligraphy, and do leatherwork, handmade beads, stained glass and crocheting. This wonderful place is the labor of love shared by three sisters, one of which I met and shared the story of how the idea came to be. An artist herself, Lynne is always looking for ideas and teachers to lead a class and showcases local artisans crafts within the store and featured on the walls. They currently have fresh cut trees and garland available for the holiday season. I left with a crocheted Yip Yip (Sesame Street), a fragrant sage / mint soap and a couple of scrubbers, a Billion New Friends (Eugene) Blackberry Herbalism Kombucha, and a couple of scones (Spanikopita and chocolate). I'm excited at the idea of adding classes to my wishlist and finally getting something I'll truly enjoy! Support local small businesses and reach out to them if you have ideas for classes or teachers.

What a spot! These sorts of places are my very favorite type of business. Part art gallery, part…read moregift shop, part cafe...The old store is so darn cute and they've really kept the character of the building. It's one of those places where, even though it's not all that large, you could really spend some time wandering as there is a lot to discover and you don't really know what you might find. I zeroed in on lots of beautiful rock and gem specimens and beautiful artwork on the walls. They also had local honey and just lots of local goodies, which always makes me so happy. My husband and I were there for a stained glass workshop so I grabbed a hot chocolate and he got a latte, then we skedaddled on back for the fun. Both drinks were delicious, and it was extra enjoyable to have a cozy little something to sip on while we crafted. They offer a variety of classes including drawing, felting, knitting, crochet, pottery, fused glass, and print making. The stained glass class we took was a little more involved, while the week before they were doing a drop in class for Christmas ornaments that would have been fun for kids. We ended up spending about two hours on our projects, but had a great time. There were two other students who were very friendly and our instructor was knowledgeable. The price for the class was very reasonable and we would definitely take another. They would also be so fun for a girl's day. At the café along with the mix of beverages, cookies and snacks, the soups of the day were clam chowder and tomato beef barley soup. They were out of the latter by the time we were finished so grab it while you can! One of our classmates mentioned the lemonade is particularly delicious. They even have local Ruby Jewel ice cream sandwiches. Overall, while we live a little too far for this to be a quick spot to grab a snack, easy lunch or dinner, I am jealous of the locals who have this option! Two of the owners (and they are sisters, ah so sweet!) were there and they were so friendly and nice. Again, this might be a little out of my way, but that won't stop me from returning. If you are headed between Salem and McMinnville or Sheridan, stop by Hopewell Hub on your way for some goodies.

We scheduled it for a couple weeks out, they arrived on time, were very polite and professional, and finished the job in about an hour. Cleanup was perfect, you couldn't even tell they had been here when they left. I'm sure we'll be calling them again in the future. Edit - The only negative is their payment system. You have to call the office (or have the driver do it when they're done) and read off your credit card number so they can run it, like it's 1993 or something. They have a nice website, why can't they incorporate e-payments on it?

While the shop itself is small, the energy within packs a punch. It could've also been the new (6 mos.) shop owner (I forget, was it 'Eddie'?). The vibe was fun with playful decor and accessories throughout. I really enjoyed the easy conversation and her product knowledge. My gift of gab extended beyond the regular business hours, so I grabbed my purchases, made note of my new 'wishlisted' plants, and bid my new friend adieu. This shop is tucked in the strip mall down from the Keizer post office next to UPS, where holiday business is sure to start ramping up. Go show some love and adopt a new green friend for yourself! Wishing them all the success in this local small business.
