Demonstration Garden

It’s best to choose natural stone in person. In our demonstration garden, you can explore different types of stone, sizes, finishes, and applications for gardens and outdoor spaces.

Take your time walking around, compare materials, and discover which natural stone is right for your garden or project. Our demonstration garden is open to the public 24/7.

Why visit our demonstration garden?

You have to see and feel natural stone

The color, texture, and finish of natural stone really come into their own outdoors. That’s why we’ve brought together a variety of materials and applications in our demonstration garden.

You can see what natural stone looks like in a real outdoor setting and compare different types of stone side by side. This is helpful when you're looking for inspiration for a patio, garden path, driveway, staircase, or other project.
