Orchard Nursery of Lafayette

Orchard Nursery is a Tree Service in Lafayette, CA. Established in 1946, it is a family-owned garden center offering unusual and hard-to-find plants and gifts. The nursery spans five acres and specializes in a wide range of services, including the sale of fruit trees such as apples, nectarines, peaches, and cherries, as well as citrus trees, blueberries, raspberries, and a variety of vegetables including tomatoes, peppers, squash, and strawberries. The nursery also offers houseplants, garden decor, and seasonal items. It serves local residents looking to enhance their gardens and outdoor spaces with unique and quality plant selections.

Orchard Nursery has evolved from its beginnings as a cattle ranch and fruit stand into a full-service garden center. The nursery was founded by Jack Schneider and Stewart Wade, with the design assistance of renowned landscape architect Ernest Wertheim. Wertheim helped shape the concept of the nursery as a more immersive experience rather than just a place to buy plants. The current gift shop, The Lazy K, and the red barn on the property date back to the Kergan family, who owned the land before the nursery was established. The nursery continues to offer a weekly rotating selection of vegetables and plants, making it a destination for those looking to create an edible garden or enhance their outdoor living space.
