Fantastic little store with really great variety. The prices can not be beat and it's a non-profit shop so you feel great spending money. My one critique would be to sharpie a name on the pots so I don't feel like I'm pestering the very kind employees.

Absolutely adorable- stumbled across this plant shop on our way to get coffee & WOW the plants are lush & healthy, pots and accessories selection is fantastic & prices are very fair and it's a non-profit too?! Excellent all around! Staff were helpful but not obtrusive. We came back here twice!

After visiting a few large nurseries full of sad neglected plants, we were elated to find the Growing Grounds. Everything is so healthy and lush! This place is neat, tidy, did I say healthy? These people know how to grow and care for plants, and clearly spend the time to do it well. We took home peppers, herbs, chard, strawberries, plus a gorgeous giant fern and a couple fun little guys, too. Growing Grounds is such a happy environment, I didn't really want to leave. I'm sure we'll be back soon.

always stop in here for my little succulent choices to expand my garden. It is a little hidden gem. This trip I got nothing the selection was low but it is winter. I also like that money goes to charity. How much a and to where exactly I don't remember but I know it says on their Facebook page.

Their plants and air ferns are so amazing! I bought some Kalanchoes and the prices were so reasonable. I love that place.

Growing Grounds has a wide variety of extremely healthy looking plants. They carry everything from tropical plants and succulents to vegetables so there's something for everyone! They also have a great in-house potting mix that has saved some of my more sensitive plants.It's such a cute shop with really friendly employees. Definitely worth a stop for anyone in SLO even if you're not looking for anything specific.

I literally stumbled upon this plant oasis tucked inside of an alleyway in downtown SLO! We were leaving the nearby mission and saw the signage, and spent a good half hour browsing the beautiful selection of plants and succulents. The great California weather always makes it so much easier to grow plants and I'm always deluded into thinking I can buy them and sustain them in Las Vegas - this has proven time and time again to not be the case, so I didn't buy any new plant friends. Great selection and reasonable pricing here. I especially like their air plant section, a plant that has never really captured my attention before. Lots of plants and accessories for sale here, as well as friendly and knowledgeable staff to answer your questions. The plants here are organized and labelled, so you can easily access care info to ensure they thrive at home. TIP: They also do planting and gift wrapping here, making it an easy one-stop gifting spot. Let them know what environment you're working with or how plant-savvy your friend is, and they'll suggest a plant and help you pick the right size pot, and put them together for you. If you'd like to get me something, I'm partial to calatheas. ;)

Alright, I have a plant problem. I loooooove plants, especially indoor ones. Growing Grounds is an amazing place to buy indoor plants! They have a wonderful variety, in various sizes, and they're always super helpful at informing you what the plant is, any requirements, or important details. They even sell the pots, and have a fun selection of air plants (not my jam, but they're cute). It's an adorable hole-in-the-wall place, where I easily can buy way too much. I think their prices are very fair.
