"You owe it to yourself to visit this gem in Haverhill. You'll find amazing pastries, lovely plants and flowers and a knowledgeable and friendly staff. They can do a landscape design for your property or flowers for wedding. Love it!"

"Nice local family run business with fair and competitive prices on all plants."

"Great place for perennial and annuals, herbs and veggies. Very knowledgeable staff and I think it's family run. There is a bakery also. Hit the countryside and take a drive up here. Ice cream spots nearby."

"I will never shop here again. Against my better judgment, I bought the most puny plants and paid top dollar. After two weeks they failed to grow or thrive. It was nothing I did wrong. I never had this problem in the past. I went to another local farm and purchased the same varieties at a better price and they were six times the size! Also, I placed a "special order" with cottage gardens. , left my name and number and they said they would call me when it was ready. After not hearing anything back, I called them and they informed me they sold out of what I had ordered! I ended up finding what I wanted somewhere else and I am very happy with the quality, size and price. My experience with cottage gardens was horrible all around. I will not be back and I do not recommend them."

"We bought 2 shrubs from Cottage Gardens. Five months later 1 is dead and the other is half dead. I called to ask to see if they have a guarantee on shrubs. She said basically no unless they put them in or she explains exactly how to do it. When we bought them the sales person offered neither. I have been a gardener for over 50 years. I think I know how to put them in. The owner claimed she has never had any customer complain about her plants. I find that hard to believe. I have bought from other nurseries and they have always offered a guarantee. Plenty of other nurseries around. Avoid this one."
