Orange County Farm Supply Co

This is a great place for quality veggies in pony packs, gardening supplies and garden/​potting soil. I love their mini farm in the back so you can see how big plants can get in this area. Best thing is staff is helpful and very knowledgeable about the products. They’ve given me great advice and helped me grow things I didn’t know I could. Great customer service and great prices.

Fun place to shop for all sorts of gardening supplies, since the prices are reasonable. Healthy plants that stay alive after you put them in your garden. Major plus.

First, this is a Farm Supply, not what you would quite think of as a more retail Garden Center, like Armstrong. That just means, you’re a little more on your own while shopping.
Locally owned. Yeah!
The guy I asked a question about the starter herb plants, his answer wasn’t great. I inquired if they had Italian Parsley. I wasn’t seeing it in the area I was looking. Turns out, they DID have it, just in another aisle.
What I Love Here:
The abundance of Certified Organic plants, soil, seeds, and amendments. No worries that you’re getting any GMOs.
The quality of their farm and garden tools. Most warehouse supply venues sell tools that are made with plastic. Their tools are much sturdier. Yes, you might pay a little more for a tool, but it’ll last you a lifetime and you can leave it in your will to your next generation of gardeners and micro farmers in your family.
The BIG stuff, you just tell them up front what it is, they charge you for it, and then you drive around to the Loading Zone, and they heft it into your vehicle for you. The loading guy (same one who didn’t direct me to the Italian Parsley) knew a lit about the potting HUGE bags. He gave me the tip and demonstrated how to schlep the bag so it doesn’t break.
You can get purer Hen Manure here. I’ll be back when I want to feed my roses!
What They Don’t Have:
They had a few nicer terra cotta pots, but this is not the place to get several different sizes and styles if pots. Try Armstrong for that as well as more garden ornaments. This is a FARM supply. Love it. Will be purchasing all my Organic Seeds and Starter Plants here.

I drove thirty minutes to get to this place, and I was not disappointed. They have great selection and very helpful staff! They are knowledgeable about their stocks and will offer you the better option if one is available. A good selection of pots, soil additives, reasonably priced plants, and fertilizers of every kind makes this my go-​to place for all my indoor and outdoor gardening needs.

The prices at this place are fantastic and the quality is even better. I am always on the hunt for a good deal and their prices are usually 25% to 50% less than home depot. Its true that the staff are eccentric, but they are plant people not sales people. Who wants a bunch of extra stuff sold to them? They have always been straight forward and honest and have steered me toward the inexpensive and highly effective stuff i needed for my garden. The Orange county farm supply has the best selection of in season vegetable and herb plants.

I was happy to think I finally found a good garden supply, the first time I went I was helped by a nice guy with dreads who was helpful. The second time there was quite the opposite, this I was greeted by horrible customer service from the owner. He was extremely rude and unhelpful. They over price most items as well which I would not mind paying if it was a well ran business. I will never go back. Definitely better placed around.

Love this place! Amazing assortment of vegetable and herb plants for sale along with a limited selection of flowers. Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable and you can also get about everything you will ever need to weed or feed your garden. Prices are fantastic!

This place is great! I really appreciate them because they are knowledgeable and helpful. Sometimes at larger home and garden stores, the employees don’t seem as reliable in knowing what they’re talking about. I talked to Chris about soils and he gave me great advice about what to use in a raised garden bed, and he showed me how well the product has worked in OCFS’s own raised garden beds on display. I left feeling like I had received excellent input from a local expert.

Great place if you know what you want or are looking for things other places usually don’t sell.
Only issue I have with them is the customer service, or lack there of.
The last time I was there, the guy who said he was going to help me, never did.

Straight forward, quick and easy transaction. Answered all my questions and customer service was very helpful. Prices are fair. Nice selection of seeds. Raised Bed alternatives near exit. Several options for fertilizer, cages, tools and clay pottery. This is my 8^th visit during weekday.

Orange County Farm Supply is on a larger lot than most of their competitors, so they can stock a greater variety of soils, pots and tools. They also carry what seems to be the full line of Botanical Interests seeds. If you need something that you’d expect to be «hard-​to-​find,» or just want to have an interesting time browsing, I’d recommend paying them a visit.

The rudest customer service I have ever encountered. As I approached the front desk, an older employee asked me if I was in college. After I replied that I currently wasn’t, he made a smug and condescending comment, and when I was clearly not amused, he continued. Because I was thrown off by the things he was saying to me, I accidentally used an expired card out of my wallet. It was obviously declined, and another employee took the opportunity to say, «Well, maybe if you were in college and had a degree, it wouldn’t be declined, would it?» I was completely thrown off. I used a working card and left. I won’t be going back.

What can I say but this nursery is amazing and I would give them 10 stars if I could! I always deal with Chris; he is my go to for any issues related to my palm trees or plumerias. He has always been courteous & professional and spends as much time as needed without any attitude!
Chris as another person in a previous review said, is a walking encyclopedia and I would also add that he loves to share his knowledge! I am very surprised by some of the negative reviews, it sounds like 2 very different places.

So far every time I’d make a purchase the staff is very accommodating and friendly and it’s definitely the place to go for black nursery pots 25 gallon possibly 30 gallon super cheap. They also carry not your average Home Depot supplies for your home garden

Bought some rabbit pellets, and cilantro for my garden. Great selection and great service. The president Chris actually carried the 25 lbs feed bag to the Pep Boys all the way across the street for me! Definitely recommend coming here for your garden and fertilizer needs :)

Needed to get rid of oxalis and a weed called «spurge» in our lawn. A colleague recommended this place and told me to tell the guy what I was trying to do. Very help counter staff and went with the suggestion to get something called «spray mate» which is a product you add last when mixing weed killers which helps the chemical stay on the weed you spray.
I am very pleased to say the products that were suggested worked well and my lawn is looking much better. I did see the bearded guy other reviewers have commented on, but I did not interact with him, just the counter guy who was very helpful.

Staff are knowledgable and helpful. Picked up 70 cubic feet of Pro Mix BX soil for my new raised garden for a good price. My veggie and herb garden is thriving!

Awful customer service. I told the guy at the counter that wasps come and cut my leaves and fly them away, and I was looking for some sort of repellent. He nodded, walked me over to a shelf and gave me a can of wasp killer and mumbled «kills on contact». I said, no, like I told you, what I want is a repellent, I kill wasp nests when I find them, but I’ve been trying to do netting or something because there’s lots of wasps in our neighborhood… he ignored me completely and walked back behind the counter without another word. I finished talking and he just left me there. If you don’t have anything, say so, don’t just ignore me. You’re supposed to be experts on pest control.
I only give it two stars because I like the selection there.

Are you looking for some plants, gardening supplies, or just wanna get out? Well then, you’ve come to the right place. We are enhancing out curb appeal, so we’ve picked up some plants from here. With plenty of choices, you can landscape your backyard at decent prices.
I enjoyed taking pictures of the plants on my instagram. We’ll be returning here to get some more supplies for our backyard.

The staff was very helpful — was looking for pummice and Ocean Forest Top Soil. The short gentleman asked how much pummice I would need — said I only needed about 10lbs (for my bonsai soil mix). Surprisingly they sold pummice by the pound or in a 40lb bag. $ 0.25/lb. Can’t beat it!
Took my receipt, pulled the car around, and the staffers loaded my car. That is the process at this place — you pay up front, then you drive your car around to the «loading zone.»
I like how they open at 7a on Sat but are closed on Sundays.
