UPDATE: March 28,2025
Below you will find a list of garden centers I personally recommend located in Northwest Ohio. Be sure to look up address on google maps and use the current phone number to check hours. Most garden centers in this hardiness zone do not open until the second week of Spring.
Hoens Garden Center
Family-owned nursery since 1983 with a farmers market, trees, shrubs, herbs, vegetables, and more to grow. Hoen’s Garden Center features spacious home decor & workshops at this location just outside of Toledo. This garden center is open YEAR-ROUND and has a new coffee shop I hope to visit soon.
Mulberry Creek Herb Farm
Ohio’s only certified organic garden center. Located near Lake Huron in the middle of lush farm fields is this Ohio treasure. Photo collection above from a featured trip. More on my website at: Mulberry Creek Herb Farm
North Branch Nursery
Take a scenic drive out to Pemberville Ohio to check out the large selection on trees, shrubs, and perennials.
Oak Park Water Garden
Oak Park Garden Center specializes in water plants, perennials and trees. Located in the Oak Openings region in Northwest Ohio.
Bergman Market and Greenhouse
This is a unique garden center and market to visit while out on Lake Erie Shores. I share some of my recommendations from this location on my blog at Bergman Market and Greenhouse
Benches Greenhouse
Take a stroll down Rt 105 to a northwest Ohio hidden treasure nestled in the farm fields. Benches has a large selection of trees, shrubs, perennials and annuals. You will enjoy the large greenhouses filled with roses. This garden center is not open year-round but does offer Christmas shop during the season.
Sadowski’s Produce and Greenhouse
Sadowski carries a large selection of bedding plants in the spring including some of my favorite annuals like zinnias, cosmos, marigolds and snapdragons. Get your home garden planted with a large selection of vegetable starter plants. Later in the season you must visit for the produce from their family farm. They also have a corn maze the kids will enjoy in Autumn.
Black Diamond Nursery and Landscape
This garden center has been serving NW Ohio and Michigan for over 60 years. They have 2 locations in this area but I have only been to the Perrysburg, Ohio location. I share more about my personal experience and items I recommend from Black Diamond Nursery on my website blog.
Garden Central
This is a cozy little gem of a garden center tucked in the residential zoning in Findlay but well worth the visit. They have a nice selection of vegetables, annuals and handing baskets for home gardens. This location also has a nice shop area with seeds and fertilizers. Don’t forget to check out the nice selection of perennials and shrubs on site. More on my website about my visits to this location can be found at Garden Central Greenhouse.
Below you will find other garden centers I have visited and shared content about on social media and my website blog. Be sure to check each locations website for opening dates and hours.
