Tangletown Gardens
Tangletown Gardens is an award winning garden center and landscape design and implementation firm based in Minneapolis, celebrating ten years of advocating beauty throughout the Twin Cities and beyond. Their production facility and farm in rural Plato, Minnesota, grows plant material for the garden parts of the business and food (produce and meats) for their sister business, Wise Acre Eatery. Growing operations utilize the principles of sustainable agriculture and solid ecologically based, Earth-friendly practices. Examples of Tangletown's work and business model have been published locally and nationally. With a proven track record of excellence in all areas of their business, Tangletown would rather set trends then follow them. Tangletown Gardens takes pride in their revolutionary thinking way out of the mainstream of retail shops, nurseries, landscape design firms, restaurants, CSA's and garden centers. They feel this is necessary for a sustaining and thriving future, and the only way to truly be leaders in the industry as the years unfold. Over their ten years they have been called “style makers”, “dynamic designers”, “trend setters”, ”remarkable retail”, “Twin Cities inspiration”, a “don’t miss store” and always the “best garden center”… all great things and much to be proud of, but among their favorite accolades are things like “shop with staying power” and even a “revolutionary garden center”. These give them reinforcement to the idea that Tangletown Gardens and the Wise Acre Eatery is on the right track and will be able to continue to execute their vision while loving what they do every day.
