Jeff Farber
Owner and Founder
A Brief History
In 1981, Jeff Farber started Greenwood Nursery in Tracy, MN; five years later he opened a second location in Marshall, MN. His desire was to provide and deliver exceptional plants, supplies and service for a fair value to customers in southwest Minnesota. Greenwood Nursery grows most of its own plants on ten acres of land and in 50,000 sq. ft. of greenhouse growing area at the Tracy location. The landscaping department also operates out of the Tracy location and services all of southwest Minnesota. Retail garden centers are at both the Tracy and Marshall locations.
In 2009, Jeff expanded the Marshall location to an area on the south side of Marshall. The move helped us provide our customers with a better variety of nursery stock, landscaping and garden center products as well as the space to display them. Greenwood Nursery is proud of the way it has been received by you, the customers, and we’d like thank you for helping make us feel at home in the Marshall area.
Our goal is to offer you, our customer, the best plants in the region. We want our customers to be successful and happy by providing you the best plants possible. We grow most everything we sell and our quality control is vital to our success and yours. Healthy and vigorous plants are paramount to our success. We use only the best seed, starter plants, fertilizer, soil mixes and growing techniques available. We are always looking for new plants or varieties so our customers have access to the newest and best. Our plants are tough, our plants are strong, and our plants will grow for you.
