    10 Years!

    What a beautiful fall! More so thanever Im seeing our customersembrace a lifestyle that includesdaily gardening. This year ourvegetable seed sales have nearlytripled which indicates thatmore people stayed home and

    worked in the garden.At the end of our 10th

    season Timberline Gardenshas grown to be the favoritenursery of gardeners far and

    wide. When we bought thebusiness in 1998 it was alandscape yard that diddesign and installation. We quicklyconverted the property into a retailnursery with one of the most inter-esting and varied plant collections inthe region. Thanks to all of our customers for

    your support over the last 10 years! We couldnt

    do what we do without you. Thank you.Happy Gardening,

    Dedicated to a Safer EnvironmentThe folks who work at Timberline Gardens are realgardeners. It doesnt take long in the trenches as a

    gardener to see the benefits of gardening organically.Im amazed how few pests and diseases I see in my

    garden. Once you create a healthy environment forall of the organisms in your yard youll be rewardedwith healthy plants and youll be healthier too. When

    you talk to our sales people and take classes atTimberline you quickly realize how easy it is to have

    a healthier garden without using harsh chemicals.We teach good gardening techniques that are

    appropriate for our region.
