So, let me tell you about Merrifield Garden centers. I have been to many many landscape and garden…read morecenters over the years. I know quite a few that have been put out of business because of the chain home improvement stores. When you go to Merrifield, you will be bathed in the amazing living variety that can be brought to your home, for indoors and outdoors. The selection is beyond anything I've ever seen, and the staff clearly loves the business. You can browse hundreds of plant and flower options indoors And they also have an amazing selection of patio adornments. The best was my experience today. I needed a garden hose adapter. Sounds simple enough, but this is so uncommon that all of the local chains didn't have anything, and one young man in an orange apron Ron suggested I just get it on Amazon. I stopped here at Merrifield, and they also did not have it in stock. But the gentleman at the counter Suggested that he'd be happy to make one for me if I wouldn't mind waiting for a few minutes. And he jumped into action, grabbing the hose and fittings that he needed and manufactured what I needed for me on the spot. That his old-fashioned service deserves a lot more than just five stars. Please bring them your business!

I've heard great things about Merrifield and though I've visited before, I hadn't bought anything. I took some pics of my lawn, some of the current grass/weeds/plants growing and went to their help desk. It was mid-week, so not too busy. Craig was working the desk and so I don't bury the lead... he was AMAZING. I explained what I was trying to do, that I really knew nothing, and though I had done a little research, I didn't want to trust everything I had read/watched. He walked me through my options. I don't care much about what is growing, just that we have good coverage. Clover was something I was interested in. He explained the clover options as well as some low-maintenance grass options. He even spent a lot of time helping me understand about aerating since it was something I wanted to know more about. I decided to go with grass and clover, hoping a mix might balance between lawn and something for the pollinators. As the spots were relatively small, he said I could just hand spread, especially with the clover seeds being so tiny. While prices are a little higher than the big box stores, looking into this, the products seem to be of a higher quality. Luckily my issue was sort of small to start with so I felt it was a good investment.

The "part owner" Stephanie sides with her employee after knowing I was in the right. They sold my last pallet from underneath me and say it was because it had holes in it(lies) and had to cut me a fresh pallet. Bottom line they're shady, dishonest and waste your time. Had to sit in the middle of a field and wait for my last pallet which was just as poor of quailty as the first 2 pallets! Better off using Chantilly Turf or anyone else in the area

We had everything removed and Jon Long (design consultant) came out to assess. After learning about what I was looking for, he drew up a design that included river rocks to help with drainage. We were pleased with the design (and estimate) and signed on the dotted line! The crew arrived on the scheduled day and got the work done within the day. We got home and couldn't believe how great everything looks! The warranty on the plants is a bonus and I appreciated getting instructions on how to care for the plants and how to contact Meadow Farms with any issues. Thanks, Jon and Meadow Farms!

The…read morewebsite makes it seem like it's going to be some wonderful consultation and I went with them because my family used them for plants and landscaping. I started looking at other companies fast and there are many. This is NOVA! First of all, the person, would not give me any open time slots for scheduling. He kept saying they could only meet at 9 or 10am in the morning. Then on this particular day they had mandatory staff meetings and he could not do it that day, etc. This is horrible customer service. You could totally tell this person was way too young and inexperienced to do this front line of work for them. I will not be going back. Especially since my husband was dead set against it and told me Meadows Farms went down hill.

They under pay the employees for the type of work that we do, our skill set experience and time employed... I am the only black person at the branch and get treated as such... Management has continually lied to me and on me... I've lost money because all the workers are Hispanic and they give them all the hours and overtime hours... They don't even give us cost of living wages... I can never take vacation, due to the fact that when work is slow and enough for just the guys that live in America, they call the Mexicans back and I have for years had to use my vacation time...they work us like dogs for the nothing pay...

The facility is very well kept, & organized; I was expecting some of wood to be wet with the recent snow, but 99.8% was dry.

I always cut my own wood on my property but got behind this year, & ended running out. The wood is of good quality, But is split a little smaller than what I do so it will burn quicker.

They also failed to mention they no longer do Pick up and Drop Off for free, they now charge but I didn't learn until it was time to get my mower back and the bill was so large I had to ask why. They stated the annual service fees had went up and they also are now charging for pickup/delivery. You would think they would notify regular customers of changes before slamming them with a bill. It doesn't stop there, they also don't inform you of repairs and parts before they do the work. My bill went from an annual $250, to over $600 and I didn't know anything about it until I called to see when my mower was going to be ready. Outrageous and Unprofessional. I'm now looking for a different service provider who has better business practices and can be trusted
