Gardening is America's favorite pastime, but of course
the plants and gardening products that are used can vary
somewhat from one part of the country to another because
of the differences in climate (as does the timetables for
planting and using various products). At Barretta Garden
Center, our specific expertise is for climates in the Northeast
region of the country, which primarily includes zones 6-7
on the USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map. Please be advised
of this if you have specific questions relating to the
use of gardening products.
As always, we will do our best to assist you with any question
that you may have, and where appropriate, refer to the
appropriate source to further assist you. If you do have
a specific garden related question, please be sure to let
us know which region of the country you are calling from.
We will do our best to assist you, but you should consult
your local cooperative extension office for recommendations
specific to your area and always follow the label instruction
on any products that you may purchase.
We are located at 945 North Street in Milford, Connecticut.
