For those of you who may not be familiar with us, Trinity Nursery is a full-service, independent, family-owned nursery located in the small mountain town of Weaverville in Trinity County, California ( elevation 2000 ft. ). The shop first opened as Trinity Nursery and Florist in 1979. The nursery-florist combination served the community well selling trees, shrubs, and seasonal bedding plants in addition to fresh cut flowers. In 1984, Steve and Betty Pestoni that's us! purchased the business and we are happily still going strong today. Early on, we added gifts to the floral department and started down the path of turning the nursery into a full service garden center. By 1988 the business had out-grown its home on Highway 3 and we moved to the larger piece of property at 885 Main St. ( Hwy 299 ). With more room and a bigger building ( the historic Colbert House built in 1865 ), the garden center and florist continued to grow. By the late nineties ( nineteen nineties, that is ) word had spread and the garden center was attracting customers from Humboldt, Shasta, and Siskiyou Counties as well as all parts of Trinity County. Our customers often mention that our unique plant selection and great quality is why they make the drive to Trinity Nursery In 2004 again faced with space constraints we closed the floral department. We focused our gift selection to showcase gifts for gardeners and their gardens and expanded our garden center especially in the areas of organics, pottery, and gardening supplies. Trinity Nursery Today Today, Trinity Nursery offers our customers the best of a small town, old-fashioned nursery with the advantages of a modern garden center. Our advice, tailored to help our customers become successful, along with quality products are as important to us now as they were 20 years ago. The plant varieties we carry are carefully selected with our hot summers, cold winters and short growing season in mind. ( We are in Sunset and USDA Zone 7. ) Fruit varieties are chosen for their tolerance of our late spring frosts. We also carry a wide selection of plants that perform better at higher elevations than they would in the valley because of our colder winters. These include Lilacs, Peonies, and a great selection of trees famous for their brilliant fall foliage. ( One advantage of our cooler weather and later springs is that our plants stay dormant longer. This allows for a later bareroot planting season and less transplant shock when planting container plants in spring. )
