Just in time for the fall season, metro Atlanta-based Pike Nursuries is expanding.
The garden center will open its 19th location in the southeast on Sept. 27, putting roots down in Milton. The 10,000-square-foot store is located at 3155 Bethany Bend, just off Highway 9.
The store will open to the public at 8:30 a.m. that day and feature store-wide savings. Later in the day, from 4 to 6:30 p.m., it will host a Garden Party with complimentary wine and food.
On Sept. 29, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., the store will host “Grilling in the Garden” where complimentary hot dogs and soda will be served while folks shop for all of their garden and grilling needs. From 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. that day, customers are also invited to check out the in-house landscape consulting office and meet with designers and garden experts.

"Atlanta residents have faithfully supported Pike Nurseries as a neighbor in their communities for over 60 years, and we're thrilled to be able to further expand our roots in the market," Monte Enright, president of Pike Nursuries, said in a statement. "We've wanted to join the Milton community for some time and look forward to welcoming our new neighbors into our store and helping with all their garden needs."
Pike Nursuries was founded in 1958 by Pete Pike. He worked at a nursery while serving at the Naval Air Station in Chamblee, and then went on to open his own business in Marietta. The business has grown from one store to many across Georgia and North Carolina.
Managing the new Milton location will be Michael Fabian, who is a graduate of Clemson University and has worked in the gardening business since 1997.
The store’s regular hours will be 8:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. each day of the week.
