2019 Best Garden Center/Nursery: Beaver Bark Gift & Garden Center
What started with one pile of bark 26 years ago has blossomed into the year-round, full-service garden center known today as Beaver Bark. “We try to do it all,” said manager Jackie Bobbett. Being open year-round, Beaver Bark’s offerings change with the seasons and holidays.
Beaver Bark remains a family-owned and -run operation, selling everything from plants to garden décor and supplies, to over fifty different bulk materials such as decorative rock, soils and amendments, sand, gravel, flagstones, and of course, bark. It even rents out towable, by-the-yard concrete-mixing buggies. In essence, Beaver Bark has on-hand just about anything one might need to bring that dream yard to life.
“Our specialty is probably the staff,” said Bobbett. “It’s what sets us apart from everyone else. They’re very knowledgeable … It’s the place to go if you want great customer service and the right answers the first time.”
