Downtown Home and Garden

Come inside our virtual store and see ouyr many unique offerings

Hi, I'm Mark and I own Downtown Home & Garden. We're building this website as our store celebrates its one-hundredth year of doing business in downtown Ann Arbor. Through the years, the store has evolved from a livery stable and feed mill into an urban retailer of garden supplies and gourmet kitchenware. We feel the products we carry and the information and service we offer with them are practical, stylish and interesting enough to appeal to an electronic audience. We're posting products as fast as we can so check us out periodically. Welcome to the store.
