Today, the store is now managed by Jeff Enriques-Ikeda and Stanton Deguchi, who has been an employee with Garden Exchange for 20 plus years. Together, these two men possess a wealth of knowledge when it comes to farming and gardening in Hawaii and are available to answer all your gardening questions along with 15 other employees.
Garden Exchange now sells everything from seeds, pots, soil, and fertilizers to potted plants and garden tools. They expanded their power equipment department and not only sell quality residential and commercial power equipment, but they also set it up and show you how to operate it properly, before you leave the shop. You can buy with confidence at Garden Exchange! The products at Garden Exchange can recommend the proper tools that fit you and your job and their motto is to service what they sell.
Jeff credits the success of the Garden Exchange to his grandfather Noboru’s vision. He was advanced for his time and had insight. He was all for machines and was willing to try anything, says Jeff.
Noboru Ikeda got his wish–his dream was to purchase the piece of property where Garden Exchange now stands and start a business. Garden Exchange has come a long way from their humble beginnings and Grandpa Noboru would be very proud to have come this far.
