Resource Central: Reuse & Conservation JunkYard Reviews
4.7 stars based on 30 reviews- MMesa Conservation District
This is a great program just recently introduced to the Grand Junction area and Mesa County. Plants arrived for spring plantings and they were beautiful, full, and VERY healthy-- perfect for a good start in our arid climate. Don't miss out on the next round of discounted, water-wise plants from Resource Central and reduce your lawn and water bill! The orders for fall plantings starts June 18th. You will be thrilled with what you receive. Examples of two-week old transplants from the Spring Garden selections below.

I absolutely love what Resource Central does, especially the Garden in a Box program. Yes, the plants are young and small (as mentioned by other reviewers) and yes, there may be plant substitutions, which you are made aware of ahead of time (pointed out by another reviewer) and yes, they will take a few seasons to establish (which is expected – the photos are of what the garden will look like when it matures). The plants are a steal based on what you pay for and the variation is hand-picked for you. Such a huge time saver! Last year, we purchased the largest Garden in a Box available to replace an entire side of our front yard. There were 50 plants and nearly all of them survived their first winter. We had to replace a few plants, but that's it! they are doing amazingly well and thriving. We purchased another smaller Garden in a Box this year for the front part of the other side of our front yard, and they are doing great as well (except for some rabbit and squirrel damage – we purchased some natural repellant which seems to be working). All in all, this organization is doing GREAT things and I tell everyone about it. I absolutely love the brochures they put together on the different plants, how to care for them, and what to expect. Also, the "color by number" charts on how to organize the plants is a huge help. Their customer service is attentive and super nice as well. Highly recommend!

There are lots of tools and building materials here. If you are doing a project in your home, I highly recommend looking here for materials first. There were sets of 18 cabinets and lots of single pieces.
