Urban Naturalist

Urban Naturalist is a sustainable gardening center located near the downtown area. They grow a variety of heirloom vegetable plants, herbs, flowers, and native species on-site without using any pesticides or chemical fertilizers. The nursery operates on an honor system when the owner, Marcus, is not present, and the plants are cared for by apprentices using reused plastic pots. The business is open 24/7, and customers are encouraged to shop anytime using the self-checkout options. Customers have expressed their appreciation for the owner's wealth of knowledge and the locally-owned, community-focused nature of the business. One reviewer, who self-identifies as a "plant killer," was pleasantly surprised to find that the plants purchased from Urban Naturalist were thriving and surviving, unlike the ones they had purchased from big-box stores. The reviewer now has a flourishing vegetable garden and beautiful flowers around their home, all thanks to the hardy and healthy plants from Urban Naturalist. Overall, Urban Naturalist is praised for its commitment to sustainable gardening practices, its knowledgeable staff, and its ability to provide customers with high-quality, locally-grown plants that thrive in their gardens.
