How It All Started
Arnolds Greenhouses is a Canadian, family-owned business rooted in quality, tradition, and a genuine love for helping people create beautiful outdoor spaces. For generations, we’ve served families across the community with healthy plants, vibrant flowers, and trusted advice that keeps customers coming back year after year.
What began as a passion for growing has grown into a local destination known for exceptional quality and friendly, knowledgeable service. While the industry has changed over the years, our values have remained the same: grow with care, treat customers like family, and always stand behind what we sell.
We proudly grow over 80% of the plants we sell right here in our own greenhouses. By overseeing the growing process ourselves, we’re able to maintain a higher standard of quality, health, and consistency from sprout to bloom. It also means our plants are better suited for our local climate and ready to thrive in your home or garden.
We also believe supporting local goes beyond what we grow. Whenever possible, we source materials and supplies from Canadian businesses and partners who share our commitment to quality. From soil and containers to hanging basket materials and greenhouse operations, we make intentional choices that support local jobs, local communities, and Canadian suppliers.
At Arnolds Greenhouses, we know that plants do more than decorate a space — they create joy, bring people together, and turn houses into homes. A front porch full of flowers, a backyard garden in bloom, or fresh herbs growing in the kitchen all become part of the everyday moments that matter most.
That’s why we’re passionate about helping every customer succeed, whether you’re a first-time gardener looking for guidance or a seasoned green thumb searching for the perfect additions to your space. Our team is always happy to answer questions, offer recommendations, and make gardening feel approachable and enjoyable.
Today, Arnolds Greenhouses remains committed to the same principles we were built on: exceptional quality, honest service, local pride, and a passion for growing things beautifully. We’re honoured to be part of your homes, gardens, and seasonal traditions, and we look forward to welcoming you back year after year.
