OUR HISTORY

Zywiec’s Garden Center has been a trusted name in Cottage Grove, MN, for over 40 years, growing from a small vegetable farm into a thriving, family-owned garden center. Originally known as Berryland, a popular pick-your-own berry farm, Zywiec’s was founded by Bob Zywiec, who carried on his family’s farming legacy. Today, under the leadership of Bill Zywiec, the garden center offers high-quality plants, landscaping supplies, and seasonal attractions. From lush perennials and annuals to premium garden essentials, Zywiec’s continues to provide exceptional products and service—including the area’s premier haunted house and hayride attraction.
