Would highly recommend! If you are interested in learning more about Huei's garden you can watch an interview linked here https://youtu.be/8-yrPzIKkBI?is=wSepRx4NEdy2MQGb.

I can't say enough about Gwen and her incredible team. From start the start she was very open and…read moretransparent about costs and communicative throughout. I loved everything about her design and I loved that she had her own crew to do the install. The crew was great and was super organized. I sit and admire my front yard everyday. I love it so much!

Gwen and her team did a FANTASTIC job in our yard. We wanted to re-do major sections and she did…read morean excellent job of melding the new with the old. We are getting a lot of joy from our new yard! Gwen was great about listening to what we do and do not like and communicating throughout the project. We not only needed to re-do sections of sod and plantings, but we also had a drainage problem they fixed and added a better pathway to the backyard. All the irrigation and new lighting is great! Her team was also solid with communication and cleaned up at the end of each day. It's a small but mighty group..... be patient and get on her schedule..... it's well worth it! Then get on her schedule for seasonal maintenance. Just a high performing, outstanding team! Thanks team!

Their plants are amazing. I love nasturtiums and they had some transplants with different options…read more I bought 3-4 small ones. I've grown them before so I know what I'll be expecting. Also bought veggies and a hibiscus. Everyone was so helpful and eager to answer questions. They also helped me to my car. It's not cheap but it's worth every penny I spent. I highly recommend Red barn if you are looking for good quality plants.

Why have I never been to Redwood Barn Nursery before? We finally refurbished our raised bed garden…read moreand decided to plant some vegies. We picked up some tomatoes and squashes from Davis Ace but had room for more. Davis Ace didn't have a great selection, so we headed to Redwood Barn. We should have started there. They had a large selection of assorted vegetables, melons, herbs and other seedlings. We've got to come back to check out the garden and house plants. As we went inside to pay, a customer was getting assistance with their sickly houseplant. What a wonderful service.

Cute little park in the midst of south Davis homes. It's a bit of a distance from the street,…read moredepending on which side you're coming from, so that makes me feel safer about the kids running around. Street parking only. There's very easy walking access from the surrounding neighborhoods, and I saw a few people taking a stroll and some biking. There are two separate play areas, but they're not super far apart, which makes it easier to supervise the kids. One is more geared for older kids and one for toddlers, although my toddler loved both of them. There are two big kid swings and two little kid swings (again, separate areas). There are wood chips in the play area, no sand. We saw some gardeners doing landscaping as we were there; the park definitely felt like they kept it up well. As for eating, there are two picnic tables and a drinking fountain. There are NO bathrooms. While there were lots of trees, they were not necessarily covering the play structures, just the surrounding grass. I wouldn't come on a hot, sunny afternoon!

There are so many little parks located near this area, and Walnut Park is wonderful! Located next…read moreto Peregrine (a school) it has a vast open grassy field, tennis courts, pickleball courts, and a playground. The courts are lighted so you can play at night. The courts are rather new so there are barely any cracks through them! For those that prefer to watch, there are bleachers that line the courts so you can hang out there! I saw tons of people bring their dogs with them so definitely bring your four legged friend with you to enjoy the park. There is a parking lot right by the courts that you can park at to walk around. It's also extremely close to Oakshade Town Center so you can go over there to grab a bite to eat. I haven't gone there when school is in session but on the off days, it is pretty empty and accessible :)
