Springvale Nurseries

HistoryOur two owners began the business in 1983. One was returning home after studying design and working in the business world; the other had worked for one of New England's premier plant breeders and studied botany in college. Springvale Nurseries began in a field behind the family farmhouse, where nursery stock was laid out to grow. Over the years, as they raised a family, the business grew, too. With their hard work and know-how, Springvale Nurseries added greenhouse crops and moved from the farm to its current home at 1280 Main Street in Sanford. Our new location represents an opportunity to build a garden center that is a shared vision between the two generations-one that beautifully reflects their values and reasons for being growers.SpecialtiesSpringvale Nurseries is a family-run business that has been serving Southern Maine's gardeners and landscapers for over thirty years.
