“create an environment that inspires the use of nature’s resources”

Greetings from The Big Red Barn – the heart of the Ponderay Garden Center, North Idaho’s award winning nursery.  Our Mission at PGC, is to create an environment that inspires the use of nature’s resources by helping people fulfill their desired outcomes and landscaping dreams.

Ponderay Garden Center is an owner operated facility, which houses our multitude of garden and landscape products that arrive daily.  We have taken what was once a beautiful family farm, with all its existing outbuildings, and converted the farm into a truly unique and captivating retail experience.

When you shop at PGC, you will be shopping an extensive selection of plants, trees and shrubs that are hand selected and climate appropriate for the Northern Idaho.  You will also be shopping organic soils, beautiful garden decor, and an impressive inventory of natural stone.  You will also find an incredibly knowledgeable staff, which includes plant and hardscape experts to support you through every step of your shopping experience. For your design and planning needs, our design team includes a licensed landscape architect with over 20 years of planning and landscape architecture experience with projects nationwide.  We are here, at The Big Red Barn, looking forward to making your garden and landscape experience second to none!
