Jamie is very pleasant to work with. He is very flexible to meet my needs and designed a beautiful and functional backyard. His crew is very professional and works very hard to have all the planting done in time.

I called and set appointment with Karl the designer. He came to house and he looked over the project. We talked about plants I liked. I really had no set vision so I left it to the professional.
One he had a design I met him at the nursery and we walked around and he showed me the proposed plants. We made a few minor adjustments. I gave a deposit and he put me on the schedule.
I really liked dealing with Karl. Very easy going, experienced and professional. I also like being able to walk the nursery and see the plants in person all in one place. They have a huuuge variety of everything.
I got a call saying when they were coming and about how long it would take. The guys showed up and did a great job. Karl was there managing to make sure it all went down as expected.
This spring all looks great.

The person we worked with was very nice and professional. He took an interest in helping us find what we were looking for and helping us with the details as to planting and care of the trees.
The large tree was delivered and planted in a very reasonable amount of time, as it was about 9 days after purchase. That is very good because this is a busy time of year for planting trees.
The only thing I would grade them down on are the prices. Even though we received a 50% discount for the smaller trees, we were able to go to another nearby nursery and pay full price for the same tree, which was slightly smaller, 5 ft. tall vs. 6 ft. tall. The discounted price of each tree was about $115 compared to the other nursery at full price, which was $79. So even a 50% discount doesn't seem to compare to the other store's full price. Also, since we were getting a discount, we have no warranty on the trees, but the competitor has given us a full warranty on the cheaper tree.
Overall a good experience, with quality products, and professional staff. To reiterate, the pricing was the only issue that I had.

They were punctual and dug out some old shrubs. They tilled the part where we had rock and sheeting over the ground and added new dirt in its spot. They planted the new shrubs and then mulched. They did a great job more than I expected!

Mr Sherwood was very helpful when I told my problem of my tree losing leaves a few months ago. He explained how to go the scratch test on the bark to verify if really dead. On a Saturday I went in with my receipt for my dead tree . They helped me pick out a replacement that would work better in my west county clay soil. I got a 100 % credit towards my new tree. They sent me a message Monday saying they could be out on Tuesday, weather permitting. When I got home from work it was beautifully planted , without any damage to my newly seeded grass. I was very impressed and pleased with their work.

Over 3 visits to the nursery we purchased a total of 8 trees and had them planted. They were very helpful in helping us pick out the best trees for what we wanted. They offer a two year warranty if they plant the trees. The team that came to our house were very professional and friendly. They arrived when scheduled and did a great job. They gave us detailed instructions on how to take care of the trees. They all survived the harsh winter of 2013/2014 and are growing like crazy. We will continue to use Sherwood Forest for all of our landscaping needs.

Bill Minford responded to an email to me immediately after I left a message. I was referred to him by a neighbor with great front yard landscaping. I didn't have a great idea, but Bill suggested a beautiful design. He drove by my office within a week of calling him (a few days delayed due to snow) and had designs to me immediately. He then followed up with a call to meet in person as work was about to start and only then asked for a deposit. Work performed as scheduled and he called a few days later to ensure satisfaction.

Our project went very well and we couldn't be more pleased. Bill Minford is a true professional.. We had a large backyard project we needed help with. Bill redesigned the layout, adding new beds and privacy screening areas as well as incorporated our existing plants/trees into the new design. His vision far surpassed what we were thinking our entertaining area could be. I highly recommend Bill for your landscape design project. The pricing compared to others, but what stood out from the rest was the warranty - 2 years full replacement if planted by Sherwood Forest.

Pulled down the and quot;oldand quot; wall that was built in July, they scraped all the liquid nail off each block and reused them to make 4 round planting beds that we love. Our designer showed up the first morning(every day) and made sure we did not want to make any last minute changes to the plans we had. Once we gave the go ahead he instructed the crew on what needed to be accomplished that day, they got right to work. The crew was very polite and professional, did not ever see any them just standing around and they completed the task a day sooner than we expected, I am very pleased with the results.

I called to see if they had the flower baskets I needed. They said yes. Unfortunately they were sold out when I got there the next day. An employee potted up the baskets especially for me. Another words, they went above and beyond too satisfy my needs. The plants are doing wonderfully!

They are always good, their stock is good, they do whatever they say they are going to do, and they are just good to do business with. Their prices are competitive, they are not overly priced, and it was a positive experience.

Bill came to my home and listened to what I wanted to do and why. Within a few days he e-mailed me a drawing and bid. When I called him with questions he was very willing to return to my home to discuss the plans. I thought I might want to space the bushes a little differently, and I appreciated Bill's willingness to tell me why he designed it the way he did, and why he thought it would look better. He was more than willing to do it my way, but he's the designer and I listened to his advice and I'm glad I did. The day the planting was done he called to say they would be about 30 minutes late, which is always nice to know. Workmen did the actual planting, but Bill was there part of the time to set the plants in place and make sure everthing was set up the way he wanted. I am very happy with the work they did and expect to use them again.
