Nurseries & Gardening near Woodstock, NY

“This is one of those, "oh snap, we've been coming to Woodstock for over two decades and didn't know Gallo's was right here!" The dreadful 1-star reviews for this place didn't apply to us in any way, shape or form. We were about to go to a place our landscaping guys use in Kingston- but after purchasing a few things at the hardware store in town, the cashier suggested we come here for evergreens, perennials, etc. Pat (Mr Gallo himself I think) is the head honcho, and he knows a thing or two or three about plants. In fact, he gave us some pointers on the hydrangea bush we selected because I'm not familiar with that specific type. Thank you! The outside space has a nice variety of plants, shrubs and trees, pots, etc and the inside houses locally-made Adirondack chairs, gardening supplies, tools, etc. While Gallo's doesn't compare to those big box home stores with larger plant selections, Gallo's has enough to work with and it's a doable one-stop-shop for almost any plant need you could imagine. As a reminder, this place is seasonal- so get all your greenery soon if you need to spruce up your landscape because they'll close the Friday before Thanksgiving and reopen "around" Mother's Day. We purchased 6 lush and healthy, 5' arborvitaes and 2 hydrangea shrubs for our landscaping crew to pick up during the week and plant. Yeah...prices might be up there- but the way I see it is: why drive milesssss away to go to a corporate nursery, when I'm right here and want to support local??? To add, because Gallo's is wrapping up for the season soon, there's a 20% off on plants, shrubs and trees! Thank you again! We had no issues, service was helpful AND friendly. A visit here is essential for us. Plus, this was (and will be) a good spot to come if you're looking to grab batch deals towards the end of the season like we did or grab the latest in plants when they reopen in the Spring.”

“My partner lives in Saugerties, so I have lost track of the number of times we have driven by this place. We always thought it was just a giant garden center. When we stopped, we thought all of the vehicles in the parking lot were just getting snow shovels, and other hardware for the upcoming storm. Roy, were we surprised. The place is huge. They do have a good size garden center, but they also have a candy counter, meat, fish, produce, cheese, Hot food bars, a decent, bakery, as well as regular and specialty groceries. They also have a decent sized seating area where you can eat what you bought. It reminded us of a cross between Whole Foods, and Stew Leonards, only with a garden center attached. My partner got some herbs, seeds, and soil, and we also got some delicious chocolates, some fantastic, blueberry preserves, Some amazing apple cider, and some delicious apple cider donuts, as well as other groceries that we needed. The prices were very reasonable for what we got. Everybody in the store was also very friendly. When we got out to the car, we realized that the bag of soil had a small hole in it. I took it back inside, and grabbed a different bag. I took them both to the checkout, and started to pull out the receipt, and the lady just said, "oh, you're OK. I saw you in the other checkout line." This was a great store, and a great experience. We will be back. Thank you.”

“Needed a new washer ASAP! Went to Home Depot in Kingston and met salesman Chuck! What a great guy! Helped us out and was able to get us a new washer with no issues. It’s always hard when you have to spend hundreds of dollars when you didn’t plan on it but Chuck made the whole process and comfortable. Too bad for Home Depot that he’s retiring. Again, what a cool and great guy!”
