What a great store!! They carry all of the usual stuff you’d expect: mulch, seeds, soil- that sort of thing with an emphasis on sustainable agriculture. Put it to you this way- if you’re looking for round-up and lawn care- Go To Lowe’s or something. But if you want to grow a nice garden whether it’s on a porch, yard or windowsill or attract bees and other pollinators, then this is your spot! They have a great selection of houseplants and all sorts of pots and other houseplant accessories. They carry a good selection of herbs & all sorts of food-bearing plants. The amount of space and attention devoted to native plants is admirable. There’s a self-serve bulk seeds section; There’s even a section of carnivorous plants!! They carry a nice selection of high quality garden tools and accessories, tchotchkes(stickers, candles and whatnot) with an emphasis on local and women-owned companies and USA- made products. The staff here are incredibly kind and knowledgable and the vibe is very inclusive, community-oriented and welcoming to all. This is a really great store that deserves your business!

My favorite plant shop in Portland! Focused on Willamette Valley natives and edibles with a great selection of seeds, tools, houseplants and gifts too! Always love the unusual plant gems and support of local growers and super awesome staff! [Edit: I now work here lol]

Great selection of healthy and high-quality products. They have inexpensive pots made of rice hulls that last for five years and then are biodegradable (so much better for the environment than plastic!). Their house potting soil mix has only high-quality ingredients. And the staff are incredibly helpful.

I love this place! It is the go to spot in Portland for native plants, unique locally craftes gifts, indoor plants and all your gardening needs. The staff is so helpful and knowledgeable, sometimes I just go to talk about the garden and get ideas. I learn something new every time I go!
