Our Founder’s Story

Let’s be honest—shopping for backyard upgrades shouldn’t feel like decoding ancient blueprints or negotiating with a wizard behind a curtain. I kept asking myself, Why is it so hard to find beautifully built, actually durable outdoor products without mortgaging your soul?

Spoiler alert: it’s the middlemen. All 62 of them.

And the overpriced brands. And the sketchy websites. And the “assembly required” nightmares.

So I did what any resourceful, fed-up, detail-obsessed backyard dreamer would do: I hunted down the best of the best—luxury-quality products from reliable, U.S.-based brands—and brought them all to one place. No fluff. No markup madness. Just well-built pergolas, greenhouses, hydroponic systems, playhouses, and more, delivered straight to your yard with a side of sanity.

I don’t make the products—we leave that to the real pros. But I do make it easier for you to get your hands on the good stuff, without the stress.

Welcome to Arcadia Yard. We made this shop for people who like their outdoor spaces peaceful, not painful.
