Gardener’s Outpost is more than just a garden center — it’s where the community gathers together and ideas grow. If you’ve visited before, you’ll know that Gardener’s Outpost is a place where you’re greeted by a friendly staff who knows you by name and is eager to help you create the garden oasis of your dreams.

We have a passion for sustainability, accessible education, and a longtime dream to create an environmentally friendly garden center that prioritizes organic products for the people of the Midlands. Customer questions are always welcomed by this knowledgeable staff who share a mutual love for passing on a greener, healthier Earth to future generations.

Owners Carol and Randall Isherwood invite you to visit their two convenient locations in the Shandon and Cottontown neighborhoods of downtown Columbia for all of your garden needs, each bursting with seasonal indoor and outdoor flora, high-quality backyard tools, unique special events, interactive workshops, weekly yoga, Ask The Gardener Happy Hour, live music, and much more.
