  We had an issue early on getting them to come out and communicate. But David and Danny at Gallows made it up and sent out the best crew to take care of our entire yard. We are very happy with the workmanship and professionalism of the specific crew that did our yard. Kudos to Dan as well at Gainesville for stepping up. THANK YOU AGAIN!

  SamLia Thank you for the kind 5-star review! While I'm very sorry to hear that we initially didn't communicate as well as we should have, I'm glad to hear that Danny and David took care of everything, and that your landscape needs were taken care of. We appreciate your business and we hope to see you back again soon. Kevin

  Stopped by this place because I saw the word, "firewood." Reasonable prices. purchased birch logs and mixed oak. The fireplace is kicking! I am very pleased with my purchase & the great service I received! I will return!

  This review is based solely on the purchase of one christmas tree. The good: Excellent selection of trees and service. Trees were all gorgeous and fully unwrapped so you can get a full look at it. I came here on December 5th after trying multiple tree farms and Home Depot, all with questionable looking trees. The worst trees here at Merrifield looked much better than the best trees at the tree farms or Home Depot. Staff was very attentive and helpful. It was a hands off process, you pick the tree, they do everything. Well worth the slightly higher costs of trees here. The bad: I selected a gorgeous 8’ Douglas Fir, probably the most picture perfect tree I had ever purchased. After picking it, the attendant took the tree and told me he would trim the bottom branches and make a fresh cut while I went inside to pay. After I got the tree home, I immediately got the tree in water within 60 minutes. The tree drank some water within the first day and then stopped drinking water entirely. The tree had rapidly dried, and the branches all started to droop well before Christmas. I’ve been desperately trying to keep the tree hydrated and presentable just enough to make it to Christmas. Added preservatives, drilled desperation holes, lightened up ornament weight, pulled out the ribbon, etc. All of the trees I’ve had in years past drank plenty of water, had to fill every 3 days or so, and made it to Christmas and well past New Years perfectly fine. This is the first tree I’ve had that has given up on life almost immediately and will barely make it to Christmas. Not sure if maybe the cut wasn’t made or not well enough. Or maybe the tree wasn’t fresh? (I don’t know that much about trees). Also notable that this tree seems to be absent of sap. Again, would be worth the cost and would be a 5 star rating if the tree hadn’t died prematurely. Maybe I just got a lemon tree.
