Business Details
We founded Eaton Grove Nursery in 1982 on our family's rural property west of Eaton, Colorado. Our journey began in 1978 when Ken and Judy met while earning horticulture degrees at Colorado State University. With decades of combined nursery management experience, we have curated plants specifically for Northern Colorado's climate. We operate across 6.5 acres featuring 40,000 square feet of greenhouses and a 4,500-square-foot perennial lath house. Our team grows most bedding plants, roses, and perennials on-site starting in late winter each year. We partner with premier growers like J. Frank Schmidt and Monrovia to ensure the highest quality nursery stock. For over 25 years, our community has voted us Weld County's best nursery, reflecting our commitment to excellence.
We provide expert guidance through our Plant Finder tool and detailed tree planting resources for every customer. Our family-oriented environment includes peaceful gardens with swans, peacocks, goats, and our shop cat Juniper. We remain dedicated to helping you create thriving landscapes with plants that perform beautifully in our region. Our multi-generational family operation ensures personal attention and deep horticultural knowledge for every visit. We welcome you to experience our unique blend of professional expertise and genuine family hospitality.
