"There is nothing more
agreeable in a garden than good shade,
and without it, a garden is nothing."
- Betty Langley
"We
sat in the garden,
I indolently reading…
We had the best display
of flowers
yet seen—
wall flowers in profusion, columbines, phlox, and …huge scarlet
poppies.”

We promote Organic Gardening--Come
talk to us for help in transitioning to a chemical free garden.

It's Memorial Day Week. We have a
lot to be grateful for and we'll spend our holiday thinking about those
that helped make our freedom possible.
If you are entertaining at home or at a
friends and want to spruce up the patio or deck, stop in to see our
beautiful container gardens and hanging baskets. The weather may
actually cooperate and the warmth will be welcome!
The organic heirloom tomatoes from 2 Pond Farm are arriving this week.
We don't have many, so come quickly!

For the indoor gardener we have new "Green" pots for your houseplants.
These pots are beautiful and 100% biodegradable after many years of
looking perfect. They're made from rice! (Maybe we can
put a little butter & salt on them too? ) Check out the
website for Ecosource.

A Unique Retail Garden Center and Nursery
Our retail garden center has a beautiful selection of plants for you
to choose from. You will notice that each plant receives personal
attention and we are always on the lookout for the unusual specimen, and
will help you find the special plant you want. Our selection of garden
accessories is extensive, and we hope you'll find the perfect compliment
to your landscape--perhaps an arbor, bird bath, or a sparkling water
garden.
A Hidden New Jersey Gem
If you live in Northern New Jersey, and you are an avid gardener who
loves exploring garden centers that truly care about the product they
sell, you will have a wonderful experience at Glenwild Garden Center. We love what we do, and so will you.

Alexander J. MacKenn Sr.
started his landscape business in
1928, often using a team of oxen to accomplish a job. Constantly
evolving and responding to the needs of the community, Alex and his wife
Mabel added the retail shop in 1958. Alex Jr. started designing
and running crews in 1962, and he and his father worked together for at
least 20 busy years. In 1990, Brad came in full time, and then
Jodie started in 1992. The business truly is ‘a labor of love’ for
this family.
