In this era of chain stores with predictable, mass produced inventory, Birdsall & Co. has distinguished itself as a unique and interesting place to shop for the home and garden.
Birdsall & Co., founded in 1988, has become one of the finest home and garden shops in the nation. Recognized in a number of national magazines, the store’s customers appreciate aesthetically pleasing, unique, quality products.
Birdsall & Co. is named after maternal ancestors of its owner, John Ludwig who grew up in New Jersey watching and learning gardening from his parents and grandparents. He went west to attend college and graduated in landscape architecture. After twenty years of working in design, traveling the world, and running his own design/build landscape firm, he opened Birdsall & Co.
The business originally focused on fine garden tools and implements. Soon a plant nursery was added that specialized in shade perennials. As more land and building space were acquired, the inventory expanded to include pots, statuary, fountains, teakwood furniture, and interior design items. Eventually the plants were squeezed out as the demand for other products increased.
The store started with a mere 500 sq. ft. of showroom space. Over the years it has expanded to 3,700 sq. ft. of interior display with an additional 8,000 sq. ft. of exterior exhibits. The original building has expanded and now includes the sunroom that is enclosed during the winter months. Three additional buildings, the Gardener’s Shed, World Gallery, and the Patio Room, are on the perimeter of the garden yard.
Birdsall & Co. not only sells fine products and offers personalized customer service, but experienced staff members can answer questions not only about the attributes of our product lines but also landscape design and landscape construction.
