Our Story
Rooted in Creston
Rooted in Creston since 1983, Palmer Greenhouses has been a family-owned and operated business from the beginning. Now proudly run by the third generation, the greenhouse continues a tradition built on care, knowledge, and a love of growing.
Everything grown here reflects the experience passed down through three generations of growers. What began as a family greenhouse has become a trusted local destination where customers can find beautiful plants, helpful advice, and encouragement for every stage of their gardening journey.
The mission remains simple: to help every customer become a master grower.
Three Generations of Growing
One growing legacy
1983
Palmer Greenhouses begins in Creston
A family greenhouse takes root on Highway 3, growing plants for neighbours and local gardeners.
Second generation
The family tradition continues
The next generation of Palmers carries the greenhouse forward, growing the business alongside the plants.
Today
The third generation carries it forward
Now proudly run by the third generation, with Ruth at the helm, the greenhouse keeps growing — plants, relationships, and confident gardeners.
Grown With Love and Care
More than plants
Over the years, Palmer Greenhouses has grown much more than plants. It has built relationships, supported local gardeners, and become part of the Creston community — one hanging basket, one tomato start, one conversation at a time.
That community is why the greenhouse opens its doors every spring: helping you grow with confidence, whatever you're planting this year.
Helping you grow with confidence
Come meet the family behind the greenhouse — and leave with plants you'll be proud of.
