Cacti hold a special place in the hearts of Arizonans. Serving as the majestic guardians of our vast deserts, they stand tall and proud despite the unrelentingly harsh climate. While you’ll encounter them virtually everywhere in the Grand Canyon State, this unique farm has thousands in one place. Check it out:
Hiding just north of Phoenix is a magical place where cacti abound.
While these Saguaros have already grown to a whopping 12 feet tall, they're still young little saplings. Take one home and it might sprout just a single arm during your lifetime!
Old West Cactus Farm also offers a wide selection of handmade pottery. Pick up a few Southwest-inspired pieces to give your outdoor decor some undeniable Arizona charm.
