At Canterbury Creek Gardens, we don't sell organic products because they are trendy, we believe that simple changes like planting an organic vegetable garden, taking care of your lawn in a safe and effective way, and buying organically grown produce from responsible growers are essential parts of a better, healthier, more productive and sustainable society.
We believe that although we should all participate in the hard politics of improving our society, "the big problems that we face are really just the sum of the little mistakes that we make everyday" as Wendell Berry put it.
Canterbury Creek gardens is an all-organic garden center that brings the best produce available to Greater Cleveland - including certified organic produce - produce from select local farmers that use sustainable growing methods - and produce that we grow ourselves to the highest possible standards.Nutritious food starts with healthy soils so we use and sell only compost based, living soils.

2020 Seminars
Report
Our seminars are the quickest, easiest, most cost effective way to learn about organic gardening here in Northern Ohio. At a time where people try to make every minute count - it is surprising that anyone would waste years toiling in under-productive gardens without getting some solid, credible advice.
2020 Summer CSA Program
Report
We have been getting a lot of calls and questions about our CSA programs. I thought I could answer some of the questions by showing a sample week of our Winter program (which is sold out) and demonstrating how it works. Of course, Summer CSA means our produce, organic produce, and chemical-free produce from quality local growers.
Firewood Facts
Report
We don't just sell firewood, we heat our building with the same wood we sell. We know how important it is to use and sell quality firewood. We know that better wood means a warmer building, less wood used, less wood moved, less money spent, less maintenance and safer burning. We cover our firewood stacks because we know this makes our wood better for burning and a better value for our customers.
Garden Arches plant support system
Report
For 40 years I have been searching for a better way to physically support vegetable plants. I was increasingly tired of spending hours each summer tying plants to stakes, and using makeshift devices to stop branches from breaking. I was also frustrated that support systems are a cause of insect and disease problems by creating crowded foliage conditions.
Growing Garlic
Report
Garlic will tolerate some shade but prefers full sun. It grows best in loose, well-drained, rich, loamy soil amended with lots of organic matter (1 to 2 inches of compost). Raised beds are ideal. Compacted soil produces irregularly shaped bulbs; soil that retains water, especially during the winter, will cause bulbs to rot.
