In Jacksonville, nurseries are busiest on spring weekends, when new stock arrives and popular plants sell out; weekday mornings are calmer and staff have time to answer questions. Ask which plants are hardy for your USDA zone in Florida, whether trees and shrubs carry a replacement guarantee (one year is common), and whether the nursery delivers and plants large items. Fall is the best planting season for many trees and perennials, and end-of-season sales are common. Check the listing for hours, seasonal closures and Google rating before you go.

As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm. The listed phone number is (904) 343-9575. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. More information is available on its website, eatyouryardjax.org.

Fantastic and fascinating place! Lots of choices of fruit and other trees, herbs, some palms, and plants native to Florida. However, although there are staffers to help, they need better plant description/signage (including hardiness zone for all) and posted prices. Seemed a bit disorganized and overgrown. Don't get me wrong, it is definitely worth a visit... very cool place!

I bought a beautiful Aloe plant for $10 in early April 2026. I re-potted it the following weekend so it would have room to grow. Now its late June 2026 and it is THRIVING! Such a beauty. I will be back for fruit trees next year!

This store is wonderful β€” a true hidden gem tucked away off the street. Visiting feels like going on a little safari, peaceful and pleasant. The owner and the workers are incredibly pleasant, helpful, and welcoming every time I visit. If you’re looking for unique plants, this is the place. The prices are great, and they offer many unusual vegetables to grow. I highly recommend it.

Today, I volunteered at Eat Your Yard through my employer and was delighted by the experience. I found the work highly engaging and appreciated the chance to contribute. Tim provided exceptional hospitality, sharing his expertise with my group. Prior to starting our tasks, we received a thorough tour, which was greatly appreciated. I plan to revisit, both to volunteer and to purchase plants. For those who have not visited, I highly recommend doing so. It is essential to support local businesses.

This little nonprofit farm is such a good idea that we should all help it to succeed. From blueberries to beans and persimmons to passionfruit they make nature fun and directly accessible. You can buy your own edible plants and by nurturing food crops, we nurture ourselves and each other. There's a nice and relaxed vibe to the place with helpful people all around. You can sometimes find Tim Armstrong, the founder of this unique place. His vision is adverb focused not only on making the place sustainable but also serving community with education and outreach, especially for children and folks in the inner city where food deserts and costly fresh food present substantial challenges. My hat is off to him for being one of those people who really makes a difference!
