In this blog post, we will shine a spotlight on this amazing small business and all that they have to offer.

History and Mission

New North Greenhouse was founded in 1989 by Dave and Sue Smith. Over the years, the business has grown and expanded, but their commitment to providing the best plants and gardening supplies has never wavered. Their mission is to help people of all skill levels create beautiful and bountiful gardens, while also promoting sustainable and eco-friendly practices.

They also offer educational workshops and seminars on gardening topics such as composting, container gardening, and plant care.

New North has always been a personal favourite of mine - after all, I am a plant mom to several dozen! Sometimes I make the drive up to New North simply to walk around and just be with the plants - so relaxing. There's a few stellar greenhouses around here, but nobody comes close to coming for New North's crown as far as quality and quantity. A must see!
