    This Center began in 1983 and formerly called Solana Recyclers, helped to develop the first comprehensive curbside recycling program in San Diego County and in fact all of California. Funded by grants and community donations and with help from numerous volunteers, The Solana Center strives to inspire community members to recycle and reuse to make our world a better place. The Center is also involved in forest preservation projects, pollution prevention projects and the very prevalent issue of global warming by designing plans that promote sustainable energy usage. They hold education seminars and classes and offer environmental education to schools and organizations. They sponsor a program called S.E.A.L. that stands for Student Environmental Action and Leadership which empowers students and believe it or not at-risk-teens to be environmental mentors to younger kids. You can buy affordable composting bins here as well. Check them out on the Web for more info: www.solanacenter.org

    Pretty annoyed I got a plant from here and walking back to my car it had aphids. I thought…read moremealybugs at first but the guy corrected me and said they live only 2 days. That's a lie. They reproduce quickly And the life span is a month. I have a greenhouse and 50 plants in my house. I asked for a refund and he said no and just sprayed the plant down with I'm assuming is neem oil. But now I have to separate this plant leave it outside, hose it down kill the bugs and constantly repeat it till they're all gone. To be honest, I just wanted my $43 stock and I can get this plant somewhere else.. I 100% will never recommend this place to anyone

    I have completely fallen in love with this gem of a nursery in Encinitas. I have been searching for…read morerare plants all over North County and have found that this has the best selection and best value for rare houe plants. This whole rack of plants came from Cordova, and not a single one can be found at any other nursery for these affordable prices (think 25%-50% of the price you'd find online). I have found several White Princess and Pink Princess Philodendron that have made exquisite gifts for the holidays. The most amazing Philodendron I found was the Jose Bueno, its leaves are easily at least 18" and I snagged it for 1/3 the online price! I have also found Swiss Cheese Monstera, as well as Thai Constellation and Albo varieties. My other amazing find has been their String of Turtles and String of Hearts, which are very rare as compared to the more typical string of pearls. The owner shared with me that he's been in business for over 38 years! He is super knowledgeable and has a vast inventory (hence the competitive pricing). The plants are all super healthy, and I've not had a single pest interloper from their collection. I have never left this nursery without finding what I was looking for. So if you're looking for presents this season (prepare to wow all of your friends and family while not breaking the bank) or want to expand on your rare house plant collection, this is your spot. Go before I buy all their plants.

    I had to leave a glowing review for Wendy One at the Encinitas Home Depot. If you have ever called…read morethe store, you probably know exactly who I am talking about. They call her "Wendy One" because there are two Wendys, and she was the first one there. Wendy One is truly one of those rare people whose happiness comes right through the phone. You can literally hear the smile in her voice. She is warm, kind, efficient, and somehow even remembers repeat callers, which is almost unheard of these days. In a time when customer service often feels rushed or disconnected, Wendy One stands out. She makes people feel welcome and important, even during a quick phone call. She is patient, upbeat, and genuinely helpful every single time. Thank you, Wendy One, for caring about people and for bringing such positive energy to your job. Great customer service like yours is few and far between nowadays, and it absolutely deserves to be recognized.

    Home Depot has gone so downhill...not just this store, but all stores based on 'fresh' corporate…read moredirection. Self checkout? Fine. Video on my face while I do it? No. If you don't trust me, open up more checkout lanes with humans. But the straw the broke the camel's back... there is zero Americana products to buy for 4th of July / America 250. I assure you they'll be selling you Halloween cr*p starting in August...and will dedicate large portions of the store to it. But some American flags, bunting or other Americana materials? Nothing. It's as if they're embarrased by it. THis isn't a political complaint...it's a consumer complaint. HD has basically become Target with tools. Uggh.

    i was with my aunt and cousin last week and we stumbled upon this little shop. i thought it seemed…read morecute, we walked in the ac was running and it seemed like a nice place. while the clothes weren't my personal interest, i thought it seemed great for others. my aunt was taking photos of the place, just like 1-4 ish as she loves that type of stuff. when we walked into the room where the cashier was, she saw my aunt take a photo of the hats or something. with an angry voice and demeanor, she asked "are you taking a video?!?", she replied "no" but the cashier continued and said "are- are you sure!?!" and my aunt about to lose her temper calmed down and said "no, i was just taking a couple pictures of the place" and the cashier still seemed a bit annoyed but continued to do her errand or whatever. this quite shocked me and while i understand that perhaps the cashier who i later found out (i believe!) was the owner or co-owner most likely didn't want a video of herself i feel like she could've handled the situation differently. either way i also read the reviews of this place the second we walked out and realized the main problem of the place is its customer service and support. and that's pretty much the foundation of a business. how you treat your customers. have a good day God bless

    I absolutely love this boutique! They have the cutest outfits. Everything is so stylish, on trend,…read moreand reasonably priced. While there are a few higher-end pieces, it's definitely not your average overpriced boutique. Their clothes, accessories, and even the home goods are adorable and thoughtfully curated. Sophie, the owner, is so sweet, friendly, and genuinely personable; she makes the shopping experience even better. 10/10 would recommend Salt Culture!
