This isn't a garden center.  A garden center is where you'd go to get a
half-kilo bag of pre-mixed fertilizer, or a tray of seedlings, or
similar small-scale items.  A farming-supply business is where you'd go
to get a tank-trailer of anhydrous ammonia, or a thousand kilos of
wheat seed, or the like.  They're simply not equipped for transactions
on a smaller-than-truckload scale.
