- America’s Gardening Resource offers gardening supplies and plants to its consumers through two brands — Gardener’s Supply and Dutch Gardens.

- Now, with Demandware, Gardener’s has received and deployed dozens of automatic upgrades containing new and improved features, such as Search, SEO, Catalog, and Promotions. Currently, Gardener’s web development team focuses on the user experience and putting new features to work.
