    This garden was a great choice to stop by for a stroll with my dogs. It's a peaceful and charming spot to explore with all the walking paths and bridges for my pups! The small place looks well-maintained and seems to showcase a variety of native plants with a few educational signs about the native Chumash lifestyle in the area too. I love that it's thoughtfully designed. It makes it easier to navigate back to the park, and plenty of shaded areas for the dogs.

    Beautiful small walk, lovely with my husband and fun with the kids. Holiday season was lit up with Christmas lights and holiday decor

    Why so few reviews? We went only because our Airbnb was across the street but it was underwelming to say the least. Very small "garden" with so few plants and flowers -- maybe because it was off season? (March). No one there to keep up the place or to ask any questions, it looked abandoned. Our walk around the trail/path took about 15 minutes and our dog liked it. It's next to a large park with a grassy field, benches, and some picnic tables. Go if you are in the area and want to enjoy a pleasant walk -- just keep your dogs on leash as they give tickets here (I was told).

    Play area within the garden, small, but cute for little kids

    We were visiting the Solvang area and wanted to find a place to walk our dog. We were pleasantly surprised coming to this area. The garden isn't too big, however it was nicely organized and was well maintained. There were areas for kids to play and our dog enjoyed the walk as well. It was shaded and had bathrooms close by. It's connected to a larger park which looked fairly new and had nice facilities. Since it is fairly new, there isn't a lot of mature trees in the new area, so shade is limited. However, we enjoyed walking through the garden and enjoyed their Willow Maze and enjoyed looking at their wishing tree, and taking pictures. It's definitely a nice place to visit when you're in the area.

    Kind of disappointing. It is inside a park. Not enough signs to let people know where the garden is located inside the park.

    We called TCT Landscaping after working with 2 others that cost us a lot of $ and got us nowhere…read more Terry came to the rescue!! Our only regret is that we didn't call them sooner!! Terry immediately met with us in person, understood our frustration & developed a plan for our backyard that was within our budget. He included a gorgeous waterfall & pond that will be home to a few goldfish. Also an elevated flagstone patio with a firepit that gives us a gorgeous view we didn't have previously & more. Every step of the way Terry communicated with us what the team planned to accomplish that day. They all worked long hours, efficiently and always cleaned at the end of the day. Did it take a while? Yes it did but that's not unusual for large, custom projects. Terry was also extremely kind and flexible when we made changes along the way. Carlynn was a great help choosing plants, very knowledgeable & she also put together a plan for our front yard. She's very bright & capable & we liked her suggestions. We absolutely love our yard & look forward to seeing the plants fully grown. Now that the work is over, we miss seeing all of them!!

Now we have a wine valley paradise with walking paths, a fire-pit, organic veggie boxes, olive trees and beautifully mounded plantings. TCT even stepped in to do exquisite masonry work on our custom fence project. A big thank you to Terry and guys!

    The Farm Supply Company locations in:…read more Paso Robles - Santa Maria San Luis Obispo. - Buellton Arroyo Grande. - Pump & Well I did a review for The Farm Supply Company from a third party research firm. My reviews, recommendations and comments about how the company in general can improve customer volume was done all the way back on 2/27/2025 from the times of 7:00p.m. - 8:30p.m. through the zoom platform. Even though this was a late time frame during business hours, I still kept my end of the deal and attended the Zoom meeting to help improve the Farm Supply Company from a potential customers standpoint. I did rate the company honestly and gave feedback as to how Farm Supply can improve customer acquisition. The WARNING to potential customers is to be Very WEARY and CAUTIOUS about the Farm Supply Company in general! I say this because The Farm Supply Company has not paid me until now 4/21/2025! I want to reiterate that I did the survey meeting with a representative of the Farm Supply Company way back in 2/27/2025! The third party agency that connected me to rate the Farm Supply has made multiple attempts to have the company pay me a small incentive for my time doing the Zoom survey. The company has repeatedly made several excuses as to why the payment had NOT come through, with all the excuses finally running out! If the Farm Supply Company can do this to me, I want to alert potential customers of the way they conduct business. If purchasing something from that store PLEASE be Extremely Weary of their return policy, and how they may potentially come up with several excuses as to why they cannot accept the return. They also do a lot of overcharging of their merchandise to an exorbitant amount compared to their other competitors like The Home Depot, Lowe's Home Improvement and Ace Home and Garden. I want to give my suggestion of being WEARY and CAUTIOUS of potentially shopping their because I would not like to see potential customers being taken advantage of like the way they did to me for giving my honest and constructive criticism. Please be Safe and Very Cautious of their potential up-sales! Be Safe and CAUTIOUS if potentially shopping at their overpriced stores!

I called and spoke with KC Jo, she was so helpful in checking inventory and making sure the product was in stock and ready to go. One of the items I wanted was not in stock in any other location so she helped me find a alternative. I drove up and Andy assisted me in getting a few items to protect the gates for transport and ringing me up promptly. Luke helped me load the trailer and get it secured. All around great experience and customer service. Thank you Farm Supply!

    I came here for an event today so really my review is tailored more towards the events that Casa is…read moreholding but also to acknowledge the fabulous grounds and building though I admit I don't have full context for the history or background. I would definitely come back here to learn about the house and to take the guided tour. This wasn't the purpose for me coming today but the gentleman who works here noted that it's a great tour and I know friends who have enjoyed learning about the family and the history of the house, getting a deeper dive of information. I came here with some friends for their first hosted event Sound Bath. A wellness day if you will. From start to finish everything was very organized and thoughtful. The staff hosting the event and the spiritual wellness guide and sound healer was wonderful. Everyone was nice and you felt welcomed. Not pretentious and just very positive and good vibes. We had a nice group and everyone was respectful and on time for the sound bath so it went off without issue. It was a relaxing experience and the grounds were very nice to hold this outdoor event. The birds were chirping, the sun was shining, we found an area with shade, very nice. Very faint sounds of cars in the distance here and there which wasn't ideal but out of their control and once things settled in you really couldn't hear much external noise. After the relaxing sound bath we were offered tea and light pastry snacks. I opted for a water and began exploring the grounds instead of partaking in the refreshments. The grounds are lush and lovely, very zen. Loved the beautiful trees and walkways with small fountains and running water. It was green and pretty all around from the recent rains. Definitely a great location for events and to learn a little SB history. I will definitely do my research and come back again soon.

    Yikes, this is an expensive tour but it is a rarity to see a period house with most of the original…read moreoccupants furnishings etc. The tours are docent led and very informative. If you like these types of tours, this one is quite worth it.
