Summer Sneak Peek 2026

Written by Jeff Doucette | Mar 31, 2026 4:50:39 PM
Spring has sprung (technically, anyway) and the first green glimpse of summer is already starting to show at retailers across Canada as seasonal space is converted to BBQs, Patio Furniture, Lawn Mowers and lots of other things that make Green Thumbs excited!
 
In our latest Summer Sneak Peek report, we visited 60 stores across Canada to capture what retailers are putting front and centre for the season ahead. From backyard BBQs to patio-ready setups, we gathered in-store photos and insights across four key categories:
  • BBQs
  • Lawn mowers & tractors
  • Lawn care equipment
  • Patio furniture

This report gives you a ground-level view of how retailers are merchandising summer, and what shoppers are seeing the moment they walk in.

Whether you’re planning promotions, managing inventory, or looking for inspiration, this is your early look at what’s trending (and what’s missing) at retail.

 
If your business depends on seasonal Lawn & Garden sales we can give you great visibility into what is happening in-store at retailers such as Home Depot, Rona, Home Hardware, Canadian Tire, Walmart, and more. Contact us today to get started!
