Nurseries & Gardening in State College, PA

“I know nothing about flowers and plants and came to College Gardens after talking to a coworker about my situation. They told me to come here and boy were they right. Nancy has helped salvage shoddy work by a different company(I wont say their name) that I hired and paid a lot of money for them to install a bed and place the plants/flowers. Nancy went above and beyond the call of duty. She designed what plants I needed, where to place based on the sun and overall flow of the flower bed. Mind you she was doing this during the absolute peak season and they were swamped but her customer service shined through and treated me with the time and courtesy that you just don't see anymore these days. Being the novice I am Nancy went step by step of what to plant and where. I cannot stress how much I appreciate her help with this. I am so glad I took my coworkers advice and went here instead of somewhere else. I cannot pot a price on the knowledge and service that I was given. College Gardens/Nancy made a lifelong customer in me. If you are looking for any plants/flowers I cannot stress enough how you should skip the other big box stores and come here if you want competitive prices, selection, knowledge and customer service because College Gardens cannot be beat.”

“This place is a hidden gem! They have a great assortment of natives, annuals, perennials, houseplants, veggies, herbs, trees, bushes, shrubs, water plants and more! I've gotten some truly unique day lilies and tiger lilies here for my family. It's a pleasant place to pop in and visit -- I always love to see the fish pond and hear the frogs. Highly recommend!”

“We just went to the local Home Depot and ran into a worker named Debby. She was super helpful, high energy, funny and personable. She helped us find what we needed and was awesome to deal with. More people should be like her when dealing with customers!”

“I cannot say enough good things about the team at Tractor Supply in State College!

I recently visited the store, and a staff member named Jade went completely above and beyond to help me find and select the exact product I needed. What truly blew me away was that Jade was off-duty and not even working at the time, yet she still took the time to ensure I was completely taken care of.It is rare to find an employee who is so dedicated to helping others that they step in to assist customers on their day off. Jade’s professionalism, kindness, and product knowledge are a massive asset to this store.

Because of her outstanding customer service, I will absolutely be returning for all of my property and home needs.

Thank you so much, Jade!”
