Our Story

Established in 1991, and located in a charming 'equestrian pocket' on Vancouver's upscale westside, this unique area called Southlands is a horse friendly enclave right in the city.

Large lots and small acreages house many stables, and it is not unusual to see horses and their riders go by our gates. With delicious free coffee always on hand, many people tell us that they come down to the nursery just to experience the beautiful atmosphere.

We look forward to seeing you!
