Two summers ago we built a raised bed in our yard. Last summer we had our inaugural year of fresh veggies from our own garden. We typically lean towards Seed Savers for heirloom, non-GMO, organic seeds. Eggplant carries those too! This year, we opted for Renee's seed and wanted to ensure we had our seed before everyone starts to feel Spring Fever. Eggplant is our go-to location. The staff is knowledgeable & patient - they take the time to help you make good choices. The store is a delight. From cookbooks to fermentation and canning. Mushroom blocks. Chicken raising good times. Bee things. Such a wide variety. In the past, I even took a course to make my own mozzarella.

EggPlant is my new favorite shop! I came across them early in the year as I was starting my research to start getting chickens. They seemed like the go-to place and I have not been disappointed! It was so easy to order chicks and supplies and everyone has been SO friendly. My girls are about 6 weeks now but when they were a few weeks old I reached out to EggPlant in a panic because I thought one was going to be a rooster. Jessika took the time to talk me down and listen to what I was seeing - she eased my mind but also let me know what they could do if one did turn out to be a male (which you can't have in the city). All in all, I think my little Lottie just matured faster than her hatch-mates but I am glad to know I can contact EggPlant for whatever I need for them going forward. They were really hands-off once you picked up your chicks but very responsive if you need help with them.

My elder beloved daughter brought me here ......Wow wow wow........ the most brilliant design layout/ placement of product of ANY retailer in the twin cities, and each and every item shows hours of deep cautious thought prior to selection.... ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANTLY created !!!Years years ago in the golden exciting era of retail merchandising I was fortunate to find myself a personal shopper out of college for NYC Bloomingdales in the very early 1970's before we lost the incredible artistic folk to AIDS. Bloomies taught me so so much.These two ladies just LOVE their work and their passion and creative enthusiasm glows throughout this UNIQUE beautiful happy wonderful shop! You do NOT have to be a Gardner to love this shop.And if you have one of those days after work-- burned out, worn out, deflated .... come HERE. As you quietly explore every nook I promise you will break a smile ( just like JM Cremps at Mall of America !).

Every time I go to the eggplant I find some neat hobby or tool to buy for my home. I have nothing but good memories of browsing through their selection of goods!

I've been going to Egg Plant for over 5yrs now, and they always are there to help me get what I need!I order all my baby chicks through them, love their selection of chicken feeds, and the 'home and garden' side of the business is full of great products! There's not too many places where you can pick up an extra fermentation crock in a pinch, when you just made way to much sauerkraut!

Right smack in St. Paul, you can find this oasis of sanity. Yes, it is crammed full of things you might not have even known you wanted/needed, but just relax & breathe and you can find something interesting. We found this place since they offered a micro greens class (where for $15 you learn all you can & CREATE your own micro greens).

Great place if you are looking for a gift for someone. It's hard to stay away from the store. Whether you are looking to start a new hobby or need to top up on supplies, they are always stocked. Great selection of products for backyard chickens both in feed and caretaking. They are great at explaining the differences in feed and don't shame you for your choices. Every time we go, there isn't a section we don't browse. The aesthetic is absolute lovely, we've even bought a few signs for the backyard. The garden section in the spring outdoes any big box store. Picked up some armageddon peppers, spices, and tomatoes last year and I have never seen a tomato plant grow so large.

I'm so bummed. My wife wanted to go to this store for so long and we were in the neighborhood and stopped in. Although we were the only ones in the store no one acknowledged our presence. We were hoping to pick up some fun things to try out, but we chose not to spend our money at a store where employees couldn't be bothered to say, hello.
