Have been to Kennedy's before. I also like that you are carrying rare plants now. I am a collector and loved what you had. I went Saturday to shop for a sympathy plant for a friend in memory of his dad. Always a great selection, the staff is so helpful and friendly. They never make you feel like your bothering them like some other garden centers I have been too. Would highly recommend. Always a great experience.

I cannot say enough good things about Kennedy's. Their selection of plants and tools, as well as gardening-related things like bird feeders, seeds, and gifts, is really amazing, and their service is the absolute best (including garden and landscape planning and building!). We get our Christmas tree there every year. A great local business that is active in their community too.

What a local gem Kennedy's is. It's a family-run business and it shows. We used Kennedy's to design our back patio, yard and fire pit and they did an amazing job. The personal service was the best part. Chris Kennedy came to our home time and again -- not only for the initial design and plan, but to make sure the plantings were just right, that the crew putting in the patio was on point and that the job was done on time. Kennedy's has become a family tradition for us.
Come Spring and summer, we head over to pick out our hanging plants and flowers for the garden. In Fall we're there for mums and pumpkins and we wouldn't go anywhere else to get our Christmas tree. Their selection is great and the trees really last. We get hot cider, pick a tree and wreath, get a special ornament from the gift shop and every year my girls take a photo with Chris by the tree they've chosen. Kennedy's will even put the Christmas Tree stand on for you before tying it to your roof to avoid battles at home.
They call it the Marriage Saver! Genius. I also want to give Kennedy's their due for how involved they are in community projects and how generous they are with charities. I volunteer for a social service organization on the South Shore and Kennedy's is a fantastic supporter. Sometimes it can be hard to get local businesses to donate to yet another charity because they are so often called upon, but Kennedy's always has the same answer, "How can we help?" I will choose to spend my money at a business that supports its own community over a "big box" store any day.

My favorite place to visit year round! As a child I used to tag along with my mom when she shopped at Kennedy's. As an adult I love having that same experience with my kids. Hands down best selection and service I've experienced from spring plantings to picking out a Christmas tree. And as a bonus the gift shop is a great place to pick up unique items for holidays or housewarmings.
