Our mission is to supply high quality plants with unmatched service at competitive prices. Retail customers and homeowners are welcome to our farm as well as our Garden Center in Johnston.
We stock approximately fifteen acres of high quality above ground material to choose from. Choose from thousands of shade trees and flowering ornamentals ranging in size from 1.5” to 3” caliper and a select group from 3” to 7”. We stock many types and sizes of evergreens for specimen use and screenings with sizes ranging from 5’ to 12’ and occasionally larger with some Spruce, Pines, Arborvitaes and Junipers up to 20’. We carry a full assortment of specimen ornamentals, conifers, shrubs, perennials, grasses and groundcovers.
Service is what this business is all about and our attention to detail is what sets Central Nurseries apart from all the other re-wholesale nurseries. In our quest to be your one stop shop for landscape material we offer the added service of sourcing plant material for you. If we don’t have it in stock, chances are we can find it for you. We can also direct ship material from our growers to your jobsite or yard at considerable savings off our catalog (call for details). Lastly we take pride in our ability to deliver in a timely manner to just about anywhere in New England. We turn deliveries around quickly to meet your tight schedules and deadlines.
We grow a large assortment of shade trees and flowering ornamentals from 2” to 7” caliper. We use Optimal tree spades which produces a root ball that is wider and shallower than typical tree spades produce. The result is a root ball with more root mass and less excess soil at the bottom. This ultimately ensures better survivability and quicker establishment in the landscape.
Delivery fees are based on the size of the load and where it’s being delivered. All offloading and handling of material is the sole responsibility of the customer. We do not provide equipment for unloading and customers are required to have the necessary labor and equipment on site when applicable. Please call for a quote to your location.
Retail customers are welcome to visit our Chepachet location between the months of May – October on Saturdays only unless prior arrangements have been made. This ensures that our staff will be available to help. Retail customers may visit our Chepachet location during the week if accompanied by their professional landscaper.
