Farm Life…


Sunny Days, Blossoming Baskets, and So Much More at Holden Lake Farm & Garden!

Wow—what a weekend! The sun was shining, the garden center was buzzing, and we loved seeing so many of you stop by to soak in the beauty and energy of the season. 🌞🌸

Our fuchsia baskets were flying off the shelves (and SOLD OUT!), and our stunning petunia and sun-loving hanging baskets are now getting snatched up from $29.99—a perfect way to bring vibrant colour to your porch or patio. If you haven’t already, now’s the time to scoop one up!

We’re also excited to say that every 2″ basket stuffer and most of our veggie starts are out and ready for your garden beds. Whether you’re growing greens, tomatoes, or planning the ultimate flower display, we’ve got you covered. If there’s any sold out items in our store, don’t fret, we can either replenish our stocks in a week or two or recommend an alternative from our knowledgeable staff and grower on the property.

Our 2 for $3 Seed Geraniums or $25 for a full tray of 18 are almost all gone. Come find the last few before they sell out. But we have our zonal Geraniums and our trailing Ivy Geraniums as well as one of my favourites this year the Lemona Geranium in store for you.

One of the best parts of this season? Seeing so many of you discover our new shrub selection and the tropicals we’ve never carried before—they’ve been turning heads and inspiring some bold garden plans!

We’ve also expanded our soil offerings, added new pot styles, and fully stocked up on fertilizers, bug sprays, diatomaceous earth, and more essentials to keep your plants thriving.

Need a moment to relax while you map out your dream garden? Don’t forget about our cozy sitting area near the back—perfect for taking a break, hydrating, and visualizing your next plant haul.
