There were some trees in their market, especially one particularly cool looking Heat Miser, but inquiring got me through the double doors by their refrigerated case to the greenhouse type structure out back where a multitude of trees and wreathes sat to be admired and won. Admission was free. Tickets were to be purchased for a chance at your pick of the lot. After my visit, I took another shopping eye look through the market and left with a box of 4 fat muffins and a chilled soup - butternut squash and apple - yum!

I was looking for a Christmas tree farm where we could chop down our own tree that was relatively…read moreclose to Boston that opened before Thanksgiving and stumbled upon CJ Donovan & Sons. The place was easy to find and a little under an hour outside of Boston. The selection of Christmas trees is great! The plots of them just keep on going--made decision making very rough. They have probably almost 10 different varieties of trees. All trees cost $60, regardless of size or type. Additionally, the owner was extremely nice and offered help cutting down the trees and helping to move them with his truck if they're too big to drag back. He even gives you a business card with his cell phone on it so you don't have to go find him in case you need that help! He was also super knowledgable about his varieties and helped me narrow down my search (I was looking for a super fragrant tree).

Hands down my favorite plant nursery I have ever been to! Mr. and Mrs. King (along with their dog…read moreDjango) and a bunch of helpers run a place that is better described as an experience than a "store". All of the plants are outside on the Kings vast land. The King's are like a living history of the Merrimack valley region - Mr. King can tell you stories about these towns when they were still all farm lands. There are frogs, turtles, toads, and other amazing animals close at hand while you're looking at a gorgeous selection of some of the nicest plants you've ever seen. The variety is incredible, and the quality is unsurpassed. No artificial fertilizers are used and Mr. King swears this is why deer don't bother his plants. He knows everything about every type of plant he sells and can answer whatever question you've got. I can't stress enough just how nice it is to be out there though - the drive over a tiny bridge, the "turtle crossing" signs, the acres of amazing plants to explore - and most importantly, the Kings themselves - 2 of the nicest, happiest, and most interesting people you could meet! Absolutely worth checking this place out.

Every May, my sister sends me a gift certificate for my birthday and I go with a friend on a trip to Weston Nurseries in Hopkinton to kick off the gardening adventure for the year. I love going to Weston Nurseries because they make everyone feel like a garden expert. Their staff are helpful and friendly and if they don't know an answer, they'll find someone who does! I was very pleasantly surprised to see their huge selection of perennials had been laid out alphabetically this year!!!!! No more aimless wandering looking for astilbe in the middle of the hellebores or sedum. The prices are a bit higher than other local shops or big box home improvement stores. However, aside from two of the mini plants I bought from the clearance section that died, I have never been disappointed in the quality of things I've purchased there. Shopping at Weston Nurseries is a wonderful experience!
