Valley View Farms Garden Center and Nursery

This is a garden shop as much as anything. It has plants and just about anything you could possibly need to put in a garden. Their prices are quite reasonable. If you can't find a certain flower or vegetable any where, than you should try here, they will probably have it. There is a huge parking lot that is some times crowded especially at Christmas when they open a huge display of things for Christmas. It is an event to go there just to look at all of the ornaments and trees that they have trimmed and ready for you to buy for the Holidays. more

I have shopped for plants and gardening supplies at Valley View many times over the years and finally got tired of the higher prices and iffy service. The last time I was in there, I was looking for a rose thorn stripping tool and was sent by the lone employee to the back of the store where "we might have it". I didn't find it and didn't see the clerk on the way out, though outside there were six or seven workers standing around talking. Lots of people like to shop here for Christmas decor but I find it over the top and very commercial. more

If you enjoy looking at festive Christmas displays then this is a place to go. My family and I love to go to Valley View Farms at Christmas time and see all the trees and decorations. It has become a tradition that we go every year and pick out an ornament and then go get something to eat. The assortment of ornaments and other decorations at Christmas is huge. ANy kind of decoration you can think of, they have. From baby trees, sport s trees, fishing trees, etc... They also have beautiful hand made bows for wreaths, hearths, or doors. The evergreens outside smell so fresh you feel like you are in a winter wonderland. It can get crowded during the holidays, so leave your coat and big backpacks/purses in the car so you can go down the aisles easier. If you go on a Friday or another weekend day, try to go in the late afternoon, it doesn't seem to be as crowded then. more

Valley View Farms is a great store to buy everyday garden/outdoor supplies, but it is especially fun at Christmas time. There light display is amazing. I love driving to the intersection at night and getting stopped by the red light and just staring ahead of me at all the magnificent lights! My best friend and I have a tradition of going to Valley View before Christmas and walking up and down each aisle looking at all of the themed trees. We also love the town figurines in the back. You can find any ornament genre which is great for a themed gift. This year I sent three beach-themed ornaments to my cousin who just moved to Hawaii. Their store is very well organized and prices are standard. You can also buy Christmas trees at Valley View. more

If you are looking for the best in landscaping items, Valley View is the place to go. They have great shrubs and trees that appear to be in excellent condition. I've never had a problem with any plant or tree from here. Also, this is the place for Christmas trees and decorations..stop by the day after Christmas and you can get some amazing deals...but get there early people lineup early for that sale!! more

We use this nursery for plants and seedlings. Its a big place,and during the holidays they always have it lit up for Halloween and Christmas with special activities and events for the kids.One of their garden specialists is on the noon news on WBAL regularly answering questions.So if your in the market for new plants or trees check them out. more

Valley View Farms has long been recognized as the best in the area for anything you need for your garden--their nursery and greenhouse are huge and they have beautiful specialized things--pants for water gardens, plants to attract butterflies, etc. Most of the staff is helpful, although some are just high school students with little experience or knowledge, but if they don't have an answer for your question, they will find someone who does. One thing that makes Valley View different is that going there is more of an event than a shopping trip. When the gardening season starts to wind down, they become a destination for Halloween fun--including a huge pumpkin selection. And their Christmas shop (which starts over Labor Day) is insane--it reminds me of the tree lot in the Charlie Brown Christmas special. Definite sensory overload, but fun. Their prices are higher than average, and from my neck of the woods, it's a bit of a hike (I prefer Garlands) so I don't shop there often, but it's worth it when I do. more

Valley View Farms is an overall good place. Its open year-round. During Hallowean, they have a haunted house type setup and is very fun to go through. They also put out these amazingly large pumpkins outside. During the winter, they have lights and christmas trees galore. The downside is, prices can be high. Overall its is a very fun place to bring the family or go shopping for holidays. During the spring and the summer, they have a lot of plants. more
