Patio Vegetable Gardens

Summer is here and patio season in Minnesota is officially on!

Mallard at the Garden Center

Summer is here and patio season in Minnesota is officially on! Join Mike as he puts together vegetable planters for you to enjoy all season long.

Perfect for healthy summer snacking, but keep these planters next to your grill! These big beef tomatoes are ideal for slicing up and putting on your burgers or veggie burgers. Or wrap the snap peas and baby carrots in some tin foil with a little olive oil and some fresh herbs for a healthy, fresh, delicious side dish for any patio evening with friends or family.

So come on down to Sunnyside – pick up a planter or design your own with our array of veggies!
