Al's Garden and Gift — Local services in Meridian

Nice folks, but I paid for some sod IN ADVANCE, I received a call informing me that it was in, but as I was on my way to pick it up, I received another call from Al himself informing me that he had sold too much, and he only had two pieces left, that I could get mine when he gets another supply in, which would be in a couple of days.

I purchased some thornless blackberries 2 years ago and my aunt...
