A beautiful nursery that feels like a mini botanical garden…read more I find myself here every time I visit charming Cambria. Meandering paths lead you through cottage gardens, shade gardens, and quiet Zen corners. It's a whimsical multi-acre experience with display gardens, gift shops, animals, a farmstand, and the largest year-round Christmas store in SLO County. Beyond plants, you'll find antiques, books, home goods, and garden art. It's one of my favorite places to pick up unique gifts for family and friends, and somehow I always leave with something for my own garden collection. There's also a seasonal farmstand offering fresh produce and local eggs from nearby ranches. It's peaceful, magical, and endlessly inspiring, always giving me new ideas for my own backyard. PS - it's free and open daily.

I particularly like the vintage Christmas decor in the back room with notable items from Europe, as well as the United States. Many of them have a wonderful handmade look, and also recall Christmas from years gone by. They still have their tea, coffee and snack bar open so you can sip a hot drink and walk around and enjoy the plants while you plan your Christmas decorations

The gardening merchandise like faux flowers, rhinestone bug and flower jewelry, and candles have just gotten more exquisite with passing time. There's really something for anyone that loves to garden here. I liked all the Bee information. On the drive up we, noticed a lot more bee boxes than we used to have in San Luis Obispo. There are still plants and garden statuary on the back patio. A walk through this store lets you experience an environment that will transport you to a peaceful and timeless place, just like any beautiful garden! This is the perfect place for hostess gifts or Christmas gifts to bring Joy to anyone who likes to garden.

We wandered into Grow because I created a large succulent garden during the pandemic by taking daily rides to all the succulent vendors in SLO. My succulent garden has grown, as has my love of the kooky twisty Dr. Seuss-like plants. I am also happy that they thrive without water! We loved the succulents, displayed in front of and behind the store. There were some new ones, and many large ones that would be a fun addition to any collection. Surprisingly, what really caught my attention was the large collection of minerals in the main indoor room. I collected them as a nerdy kid, and now my grandson loves them from reading the Harry Potter books!

They paused their involved conversation for a split second so that one could glance up to give a deadpan unfriendly, non-welcoming, underwhelming acknowledgment (I intentionally didn't say "greeting"). Huh, okay, maybe I misread that, I thought. I shopped around while they continued to ignore me and the other shoppers in the store. Me, willing to think it was a fluke, I say something friendly to them about liking the shop and they both stared at me blankly and said nothing (What?!? Who does that??). It was beyond strange- it was rude. I told my daughter to put back the items she picked out and let's go. As we left, my daughter said "bye, thank you" and they ignored her. The whole thing was offensive to me and I'm posting so the owner is aware, and if *that* was the owner of the shop, she clearly won't care anyway and can get back to making my voodoo doll. Went to the next shop where we were greeted from across the store with "hi, welcome in!" And then the store after that with "good afternoon!" And genuine smiles. Creating a positive, welcoming and friendly customer experience goes a long way. The 1-star rating is for the experience. The shop itself has interesting and unique finds and I like the space.

There are sections that have herbs, teas, candles, books, and anything your little witch heart desires. Prices are great and the items they have are different and worth the amount. The back room has a huge selection of different teas that can aid in herbal remedies. There were a few that caught my eye and I still beat myself over not buying it. There is cute garden out back which is influences by Alice and Wonderland. Enjoyed walking around and finding fairies and other cool decor that fully immersed you into this experience. Pretty cool store to see and plus the staff is very friendly and welcoming. If I am ever in the area again, I will definitely have to make a stop to buy a couple of items that I loved.

The combination here of plants, seasonal decor, and antiques makes for an intriguing visit any time of year. When paired with themed event, it is a must. I enjoyed the color of the annuals on my way to the bouquet of floating fairy costumes hanging near a display of fairy habitats. The tiny gardens were a fantasyland of small plants with miniature fairy dwellings and fairies themselves. I had a lovely conversation with Crystal Reynoso who was selling the frocks while I picked one out for my gamine like niece. Crystal also owns A Little Love Bridal by-the-sea in Cambria, which sells custom made bridal gowns and costumes. It was fascinating to hear about this service being provided in San Luis Obispo county! I love to visit here each season as they renew their displays of plants and gift items to reflect the changing of the seasons, and will be sure to return before the year is out!
