I had good luck at Lowes. They have a very large selection.

Re: nursery and garden centers to buy veggies
For variety - your local nursery
For price - Lowes or Home Depot

Re: nursery and garden centers to buy veggies
I had to buy herbs and many impatiens last weekend...
lowes and home depot were wastes of my time... everything was very picked over, and there were barely any impatiens flats....
On Deer Park Ave, just south of the LIE, there is a family owned nursery called van burgenons? (something close to that)
they always have a wonderful selection, and all the plants are pristine.
Also, borella's nursery on old town rd in setauket has nice stuff too...

Re: nursery and garden centers to buy veggies
I have an organic farm out here that I get veggie and herb plants from... if it's something I'm going to be eating - I don't trust where and how the plants at Lowes and Home Depot were grown

Re: nursery and garden centers to buy veggies
Last year we went to Hicks on Jericho in Westbury (I think that's the town.) They weren't the cheapest but they had the largest selection. We had so many tomatoes.....I didn't know what to do with them!

Re: nursery and garden centers to buy veggies
I might try HICKS.
Also, I was wondering where the organic farm you visit is located.
Thanks for all your ideas.
