Add Lowe's on South Robert Street and Marie Ave. The salespeople there are so helpful!

I like Leitner's on Randolph Avenue in St. Paul - very helpful and they have great selection.

i have been shopping at Gerten's Farm Market for over 25 years. I started going there because my mother recommended it. They provide excellent personal service and are happy to spend the time it takes to answer your questions; from what to plant in the sun versus shade to what to use on the ants in my yard. I have always felt like I am talking with a friend, not a stranger and that the appreciate my business everytime I come in. They have many, many repeat customers season after season.

Why do you have Gerten's listed twice?
