Earth’s Art – Tumalo Garden Market was recognized by Today’s Garden Center magazine as one of the Top 100 Revolutionary Garden Centers in the U.S.

“We’re honored to have been selected as one of the top garden centers in the country,” said Michael Ludeman, owner of Earth’s Art and the visionary behind the Tumalo Garden Market.

“The garden centers that made this year’s list are an exceptional group of forward-thinking independent retailers who thrived in during a tough economy, which helps their community,” says Today’s Garden Center Editor Carol Miller. “We are proud to call them revolutionary.”

Founded in 2008, Tumalo Garden Market is a vibrant demonstration of sustainable living in Central Oregon.  The 4-acre Garden features a wind-aerated irrigation pond, solar heated perennial displays, custom greenhouses, raised beds, wood fired pizza ovens and a bird pavilion with handmade birdhouses and feeders.

Earth’s Art – Tumalo Garden Market helps its customers by offering workshops in sustainable living – teaching people how the addition of a greenhouse can extend the growing season allowing them to eat more of their own produce.  Classes include growing techniques, landscape design, greenhouse growing and the use of bee hives to increase pollination, produce honey and replenish the region’s depleted native bee population.  Furthermore, Tumalo Garden market offers a wide range of native plants, trees and shrubs all individually chosen to thrive in the Central Oregon climate.

“Tumalo Garden Market is more than a garden center, what we’re creating is a sustainable-living resource center,” said Ludeman.  An advocate for locally grown produce, Tumalo Garden Market has opened up its 9,000 square feet of greenhouse space to offer customers a real farm to table experience.  Open 7 days a week folks can come in and pick their own fresh produce right from our greenhouses and serve it with dinner that night.

Chances are that you’ve eaten some of their locally grown lettuce, kale, spinach, basil or tomatoes.  Tumalo Garden Market is a preferred supplier of GMO-free, Local produce for local restaurants including; Tumalo Feed Company, Mother Juice Café, Jacksons Corner, Black Butte Ranch, Local Slice, COCC – Elevation and Pronghorn.
