Established in 1978, J. Drake Turf Farm sells, delivers, and lays sod, both on the consumer and B2B levels. Adhering to a motto of service after sales, this small business prides itself in customer satisfaction.
In addition to selling plants, planting materials, fountains and pottery at wholesale prices, the Northridge-based Four Seasons Wholesale Nursery offers expert landscaping advice and installation and delivery services.
Earl's is hard to miss with its large, red, Times Square-like sign. This TrueValue offers key cutting, tool repair, and paint mixing. Earl's also has a U.S. Post Office within its confines and has household and garden machinery available for rent. This Chatham staple is widely renowned for its hometown vibe, despite being under a corporate umbrella.
Clark Farms Garden Center is the Wakefield storefront of Clark Farms. Opened in 1992, it offers the same quality products sold at its Matunuck location, although it is not as expansive as its Matunuck Farm. "We're more fun here though," an anonymous staff member jokes. Needless to say, spunk is not lacking at either location.
