Despite Old Man Winter's last-gasp attempt to hang around, we are starting to climb out of the doldrums of the cold months into spring here in Hendricks County, Indiana. I know my yard could use a whole lot of help. How about yours?
Good thing we have a bunch of options for garden and landscaping help around the county this spring. Let's take a look.
Avon Gardens
Avon Gardens is located on 10 acres along County Road 91 North and County Road 625 East, on the western edge of Avon. They have a beautiful walk-through garden and a wonderful selection of perennials, annuals, hanging baskets and vegetable garden supplies.
The Garden Center opens April 18, with a Launch Party scheduled for April 19.
Bear's Lawn Care and Garden Center
Another option for your gardening needs is Bear's Lawn Care and Garden Center located in Lizton. They truly have everything you might need for your landscaping and gardening.
They offer your typical plants, trees, bushes, garden tools, garden decor and vegetable and flower seeds. They also provide lawn care, landscaping services, irrigation and sprinkler system installation and landscape lighting.
Belleville Farm Market
Belleville Farm Market is a roadside seasonal market located along U.S. 40 in Belleville. This hidden Hendricks County gem has been family owned and operated since 1952.
In addition to offering fresh in-season produce, they also offer a large selection of plants and hanging baskets to add color and cheer to your home. When their season opens May 1, you'll be warmly greeted by the friendly owners and find just what you're looking for and more!
Country Harmony Home & Garden Center
Serving Hendricks County and surrounding areas since 1974, Country Harmony Home & Garden Center in Brownsburg provides seasonal and home decor, landscaping services, a full nursery, garden center and more.
Country Harmony's hours of operation change as the seasons change, so it's a good idea to follow them on Facebook to keep up with the latest news, offerings and more.
Cox's Plant Farm
A few miles west of the Belleville Farm Market, you will find Cox's Plant Farm, off U.S. 40 at County Road 0 in Clayton. This family-owned business started in 1970 and has grown across more than 20 acres, making it one of the largest nurseries and greenhouses in Indiana.
In my personal experience, one of the best things about Cox's is the extremely knowledgeable staff. You will leave Cox's Plant Farm with a wide variety of plants and more knowledge and confidence in your gardening abilities.
McCammon's Irish Market
Taking over the former Frazee Gardens property in Brownsburg, McCammon's Irish Market is located on the south side of Brownsburg on Ind. 267. McCammon's has an awesome selection of all types of hanging baskets, annuals, perennials, trees and shrubs, along with mulch, fertilizer and supplies.
They also offer complete landscaping services as well as yard cleanup, mulch and debris haul away. If you'd like to learn more about McCammon's Irish Market, you can view our blog featuring their shop here.
