We are a boutique-style retail nursery experience located on the farm and dedicated to offering professionally grown nursery stock of the highest quality at fair prices. We started growing unique varieties of shrubs and perennials because we weren't able to source these from other nurseries and kept on growing! We continue to source select items from other family-owned nurseries across southwestern Ontario to supplement our homegrown selections. Having learned that we cannot be everything to everyone, we focus on what we do best... new varieties, bold colours, and rare plants along with our plants that feed people under the Garden a la Carte brand launched in March 2025.
Garden a la Carte grew out of Creek View Acres Nursery & Orchard's retail nursery and the desire to continue meeting the demand for direct-to-gardener fruit trees, shrubs, and vines. Having drawn customers from hours away in previous seasons, we refocused to prioritize offering the best selection of plants that feed people in southwestern Ontario. After all, plants feed people and there's nothing more local than growing your own fruits and vegetables.
With roots in the landscape trade, we pride ourselves on growing and selling some of the most unique trees, shrubs, and perennials available in southwestern Ontario! We often have only a few, or just one, of a particular plant so we can diversify our offerings. Some of our mainstays include Redbud (Cercis canadensis), Hosta, Echinacea, Japanese Maple (Acer palmatum), and ornamental conifer varieties. If you're looking for something different, chances are we have it!
Our retail hours are available for you to drop in, browse, and shop both ornamental and food producing plants. We do our best to connect with each visitor as soon as we can and appreciate your patience when it gets a little busy! Please note that visitors are not normally permitted to explore the farm property during retail hours - please register for a scheduled tour if you wish to view the gardens.
We pride ourselves on offering quality plants at fair prices. We warrant that our plants are healthy, pest-free, and correctly tagged at the time of purchase. Since there are so many things outside our control once the plant leaves the nursery, we offer "warranties" at an extra charge for select items. We honour our advertised prices and politely decline bartering. We are not a "discount" nursery.
