“We had a fantastic experience buying trees at Knapp Valley Gardens. The staff was incredibly helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. We loved that the price included delivery and planting, and they even delivered a bit early. The delivery team was great, too, and they helped us with spacing and placement. Plus, they let our dog meet the trees before planting! It was a smooth process from start to finish, and we’re so happy with our new trees.”
