Welcome to Mother Earth Gardens!

Many of you know us as a neighborhood garden center, specializing in plants and products for organic gardening. We're definitely all that - but every year, late in the fall, we transform.

The inside of the store turns into a studio, where we create garland, swags, wreaths and centerpieces. This year we'll have an all new Green Grown, a beautiful, natural wreath made entirely of local materials (even the wreath ring is manufactured in Wisconsin). Our garland is lovely and well-constructed, and frankly, we think it's some of the best we've seen.

If you want to keep it local this holiday season, check out our extra excellent locally made gifts and Christmas decor. We also carry some fantastic gifts for gardeners, kids and people of all stripes who appreciate something a little different.

Our outdoor space, filled with flowers and veggies during gardening season, is overtaken by sustainably grown Christmas trees of all shapes and sizes. Our trees are locally grown in Osseo, Wisconsin at a family farm. They are cut within 24 hours of each weekly delivery and stay fresh and beautiful through the season. Ask us about the different types of trees we carry; we're sure you'll find the perfect one.

Our cat, Jolly, is gearing up for all the extra petting she gets this time of year, and we're looking forward to connecting again with our regulars and meeting our new customers. Happy Holidays!
