Nurseries & Gardening near Schoharie, NY

“This is a true nursery, unlike the pseudo garden centers at the big box stores, home improvement stores, and supermarkets. Don't get me wrong, the chains have their place. They work for lots of people. But Guernsey's is for you if you want a broad selection of plant material in a variety of sizes, most of it grown locally. "Grown locally" is important. Those plants are acclimated - they are grown here and are used to our climate. A rhododendron grown in the Carolinas is lush and full, but has never seen our windy, 0-degree January days. Plant survival is never certain, but your chances are better with Northern-grown material. Also, Guernsey's hasn't lasted 130 years by bringing in plants, half-neglecting them, then marking them down. You will still find decent specimens after the Spring rush. Selection is better then most places. Prices are competitive. Service is good. Bottom line, this is worth the drive when the limited selection of run-of-the-mill trees, shrubs, and perennials at the box stores won't do. For me, that is almost always...”

“I was astounded by the clean shiny floor, packed and perfectly faced shelves(especially in the boardgame toy section) and amount of workers throughout the store and at the registers at 9:40 at night.

Prepared food options kind of sad and the most( and largest) potholes I've ever seen in a parking lot for even a defunct plaza. Literally the most shockingly bad and inexcusable state of a parking lot for any store, nevermind a Walmart.

Corporate needs to know how in disrepair it is.”
