Tucked within the brick building lined courtyard of Backyard on Blake (BYOB) hides Birdsall & Co.. — an urban nursery catering to the millennial generation and their love for plants and urban gardening. Inside this exceptional garden boutique is a fairy light illuminated atmosphere, surrounded by plants and the sound of dripping water. It seems as though you’ve stepped through a portal than character into something more serene.
This isn’t the first Birdsall & Co. store in the Denver area. A couple of miles south — in Englewood — Birdsall & Co. have their first store. This first location focuses on being a garden boutique, while the location on Blake Street is more of a metropolitan nursery.
Walking through the Birdsall & Co. location on Blake Street seems like an escape from the urban district that RiNo has become over the last couple of years. After spending an hour searching for parking you step through the doors of this store and breathe a breath of fresh air surrounded by plants and cute home decorations. The sound of cars fades away and you gradually start to notice the drip of fountains running throughout the store.
Birdsall & Co. in BYOB has a very simple layout — one long room with stairs to an upper loft where you can look back on the whole store. When you first enter you’re greeted by a wall of reusable bags and a lush, beautiful and huge plant which helps guide you into the rest of the store.
