I'm not too sure if Mary's Garden needs any more promotion from us. According to Ken, Mary's son, they can barely keep up with demand. On any given day, the parking lots is jammed and staff are in crowd control mode.
What makes Mary's Garden special is a lot of their produce is grown out back and brought in each morning. A large blackboard over the cash registers lets you know what's currently in season and what's coming up.
Mary's Garden started back in 1966 in a little vegetable stand at the farm of Jack and Mary Nootebos.
Over the years, Mary's Garden has grown several times and now is located in it's biggest barn yet.
Mary has retired but still enjoys coming down to the farm to pick flowers. The business she began, so many years ago, is in great hands and thriving under the guidance of her two sons Ken and Mike. If you feel like braving the crowds, they're located at 15649 40th Avenue in Surrey. Don't forget they're closed on Sundays!
