Our Commitment to Quality and Sustainability

Since 1962 at Scharringa Greenhouses, we’ve been rooted in a deep commitment to providing top-quality products and exceptional service. Over the years, we’ve built lasting relationships with both corporate and independent garden centers across Ontario, supplying plants that thrive and make a difference.

Quality Products for Every Garden Center

Whether you’re a large corporate chain or a family-owned independent, we understand the importance of providing only the best. Our team works tirelessly to ensure that every plant we produce meets the highest standards, ensuring success for your business and delight for your customers.

Caring for Our Environment

While we’re passionate about plants, our commitment extends far beyond the products we provide. We believe that true sustainability is rooted in action, which is why we go the extra mile with every decision. From implementing industry-led recycling programs to promoting responsible water management, we are dedicated to making a positive impact on the environment.

One of the ways we prioritize sustainability is through responsible pest management practices. We are proud to say that we do not use neonicotinoids in our facility, ensuring that we are not contributing to the decline of pollinators like bees. Every step we take is part of our ongoing mission to protect the planet while continuing to offer beautiful, healthy plants.

A Partnership You Can Count On

As we look to the future, we remain focused on our mission to support garden centers across Ontario. Our commitment to quality and environmental care is stronger than ever, and we are excited to continue serving your business with the same dedication that has defined us for over six decades. Thank you for being part of our journey. We look forward to growing together for many more years to come.
