About Calgo Gardens

Calgo Gardens is a magical destination that celebrates garden living and brings the outdoors in. This enchanting nursery and retail showcase, The BARN, is a haven for nature lovers and art enthusiasts alike. The quaint shop is filled with unique and beautiful items, including handcrafted treasures from local artists, and a gift shop that adds to the charm. Visitors can enjoy a truly immersive experience by wandering through the beautiful grounds, which feature large outdoor gardens with all types of vegetation, a butterfly garden, and hummingbirds fluttering around. The Tulip Tree Cafe serves delicious food, including the popular grilled cheese and potato salad, making it a favorite spot for many. The peaceful terrace, with the sounds of birds and fountains, provides a perfect place to enjoy a meal and relax. There are also yoga classes held on site, adding to the variety of activities available. While some guests have noted that the greenhouse and plant selection have recently felt a bit disappointing, with fewer artful items and indoor plants than before, the overall experience remains charming. The grounds often host events like live music, art shows, and cooking demos, making it a wonderful place to escape and find inspiration. Visitors have described Calgo Gardens as more than just a place to visit—it's an experience that awakens all the senses and radiates creativity and community. Despite some ups and downs, Calgo Gardens continues to be a special spot for those seeking a charming, nature-filled retreat.

Great vibe. Garden decor that is curated with care and merchandised for inspiration . Succulents, epiphytes... even a few nepenthes, along with native species and garden basics. . Nice. Gift shop , vintage shop, and book shop are all charming - book shop owner is particularly welcoming. Entire property is relaxing to browse. Just beautiful.

Editing to add: Based on the owner's response, that the cafe is a separate business, we've upped the stars. It's a lovely property to visit. That being said, the same could be said for most of the other shops on site...and the positive reviews for those were well received. Leaving the comments regarding the cafe in place as anyone… read full review
