Blueberries or Bust!

Blueberries are easy to grow and make a delicious summertime snack! Learn how to grow blueberry plants and take one home. We will also talk about how important bees are in pollinating all of our fruit trees and berries.

Founded by Al and Ann Bigej in 1948, Al's Garden Center was originally known as Al's Fruit Stand. In 1959 Jack Bigej joined his father and began to develop what is known today as Al's Garden Center. Al's Garden Center is a third-generation family owned and operated business.

Al's dream has grown into Al's Garden Centers in three locations: Woodburn, Sherwood and Gresham. The Garden Centers are supplied and supported by Al's Greenhouses. Al's Greenhouses grow 90% of the soft-stemmed annuals and perennials sold at Al's Garden Centers. Currently, Al's Garden Center is the largest full-service garden center in the Willamette Valley, specializing in the production and sale of premium quality annual and perennial bedding plants as well as nursery stock.
