Transitioning to online sales this year with curbside pickup has been a journey, and a very positive one. We’re delighted to find our customers so receptive to this method of operating, and we thank all of you who have purchased from us so far this season.
Order online at shop.carpgardencentre.ca and we’ll arrange curbside pickup
After a short experiment with drop-in visits earlier this weekend, we’ve decided that the most responsible and effective way that we can serve you this season is through continuing to take your orders online and by phone, with contactless curbside pickup.
Going forward, our opening hours (found here and on our Google Business listing), will indicate when we are open for pre-arranged curbside pickup only.
We will continue to work to make this as easy as possible for you, with inventory updated daily, announcements about new inventory, and clear information about timing and details for picking up your orders.
We’re so excited about this gardening season too, and we want to be sure we can be here for you throughout the whole season.
Thank you for your support and understanding, and please know that we’re here to make the 2020 gardening season a productive and beautiful one.
Best wishes,
Jonathan & Tori and the Carp Garden Centre team

As the season begins to wind down and we reach late summer, we vegetable gardeners are enjoying the fruits of our labours. The tomatoes are ripening, the cucumbers are ready to pickle, and most anticipated of all, the garlic is ready to harvest!
Many Carp locals know that nowhere celebrates this bountiful time better than the Carp Farmers’ Market. The annual Garlic Festival will be held at the Carp Fairground this coming weekend.
