(By the way, just to insert the prices are better than Home Depot. I paid for a little shrub more at Home Depot than I would've here.). I really wish I would've found out this place sooner after wasting so much money on crappy privacy trees online that arrived very sparse to say the least. Look for Jerry he is so very nice and helpful. I couldn't have gotten a better person to guide you through the process of plant selection especially as a new time beginner thank you Jerry so much for all of your expertise.

During the fall they have hay bales and corn stalks which are also reasonably priced. They have plenty of pumpkins and yard decorations as well. Bringing items to your car is easy because they provide wagons to cart your purchases around in as you shop. They also provide rope if you need to tie something to the roof of your truck. The plants I have bought always last the fall and are in good shape. There is always help available if you need. Great nursery.

When you first walk in, you are hit with high humidity. This is obviously for the health of the plants but what happens when you move them into a different and dryer environment? They will die. No one lives in a high humidity environment here. Second, they say they have rare plants - I promise you they are not rare and the only thing that is rare is the variegation. Lastly, the prices are astronomically high. 30-500 dollars depending on whether you want a large plant or potted plant. A 30 dollar plant will get you one small stem. The prices are far too high for something that will not survive outside it's current in-store climate.

They have a great selection of both indoor plants and garden variety plantings. The staff members I did interact with were very friendly. My only complaint is that I wish it were larger, I love walking through the greenhouse just being near all the plants. I did find what I was looking for, and a few things I wasn't, and ultimately, yes, they're a bit pricier on some things than your big-box chain stores, but honestly, I'd rather that. Local nurseries are dying and I'm happy to help keep this one thriving.

Short answer: There was not. The produce may be fresh and local, but you can find that in other stores or stands for well less than the prices here. (Example: $5/lb for tomatoes.) There were only two relatively short outdoor rows of fruits, vegetables, and flowers, and then a fairly cramped interior space with some more harvests (pumpkins, being fall), one refrigerator with cider, one freezer with ice cream, and a few shelves of jam. Very small selection overall, and at best the ice cream qualifies as "not unreasonable" for pricing. I think the only thing Richfield's got going is that it's in a semi-urban location, so you are hard-pressed to find a similar place nearby. But other than the experience of walking around outdoors for a few minutes, I would say just get your fruits and veggies at Whole Foods (or, if you're not local, find a farm closer to you).

The flowers I've purchased from here seem to last longer and grow larger than other garden centers. The prices are not outrageous like some other garden centers as well. It feels nice to not only support a local business but also get a product that is better from a large-chain box store as well.

Staff is friendly, family owned, don't expect super quick service. They do everything themselves here. Great to take kids or someone who is interested in building their garden.
