Hanson's Garden Village - Why Hanson's Garden Village

Why Hanson's?

We are primarily plant growers, and sell very little of what we don't grow ourselves. While we still do Easter and Christmas blooming plants, our major emphasis has shifted to the "outdoor" plant business in all of its' aspects:

Annuals
Hanging Baskets and Planters
Perennials
Trees and Shrubs
Water garden plants (primarily natives)
Vegetable Starts
Native plants for gardens and restoration efforts
Fall Mums, Kale, Asters, etc.

     We are active in plant evaluation for Northern gardens, and in breeding efforts in the genus Heliopsis. There are several thousand square feet of display and test gardens that our customers can enjoy and learn from.
     We are recognized leaders in the area of producing native regional plants, and in their uses; and we are active in the designing and installation of lakeshore restorations in particular. We are sincere promoters of sustainable landscape practices.
     Hanson's Garden Village offers more than just plant material. We stock, besides the gardening basics, many interesting, unusual, and "artsy" garden items. You can find landscaping necessities like mulches (bulk and bagged), composts, bagged topsoils, lawn edging and weed barrier, erosion blankets, grass and wildflower seed, and much, much more.
     After the busy spring season, certain of our staff become quite busy with consult and design projects - anything from foundation plantings to herb gardens to perennial beds to native plantings. While we do not typically do actual installation work (except for some lakeshore restorations), we can help with that through our network of tried-and-true landscape firms that we partner with.
     In the Autumn, we are busy helping folks with their Fall decorating needs: all the plants, plus pumpkins, straw bales, corn stalks, and more.
     For the Christmas Season we grow Poinsettias and Azaleas; and also produce and sell outdoor evergreen products such as wreathes, garland, and swags. For your convenience we select top quality Christmas trees from excellent northern growers and display them INDOORS and unbundled in a greenhouse setting. We ship boxed decorated Christmas wreathes throughout the "lower 48" to help our customers spread Holiday Cheer to their loved ones and associates during that Season.
     January is just about the only month that will find us "closed to the public". While February is not a gardening month - we will already be busy producing the flowering beauties of Spring. Our basic hours (except in January) are always 8am to 5pm Monday through Friday and closed Sunday. We have extended hours in the Spring and again during the Christmas Season.
