Darren & Jesse

For several years prior to opening the nursery, Darren owned a landscaping business and Jesse had a flower shop. The natural progression was the creation of Arbor Day Nursery in Riverton, Utah in 2006. We gradually found our niche. Now, 16 years later, we are able to provide exceptional service and high quality products to our community and surrounding cities

What Our Customers Say

The people are so nice and helpful here. Not to mention the plants look healthy, and they had some fun and unique plants I haven't seen around. The garden section has non-gmo starts. Which is what I wanted. They are also open Sundays, and that is a huge bonus!

~ Bart N. on yp.com

I been driving pass this place for 4 years. I finally pulled in and parked. WOW!!! I wanted to buy everything. If you love gardening, plants, flowers, trees this is the place for you. I think I also met the owners or maybe the managers. Super helpful, cordial. What a great staff. Wonderful customer service. I have found my absolute favorite nursery.

~ Ma Black on Facebook

By far, my favorite nursery for my vegetable and flower gardens! Everyone is knowledgeable and friendly. I've been visiting them for about six years now and will continue! I just bought everything I need for my vegetable garden today. Can't wait to get started!!!

~ Marilyn K Dean on Facebook

Very thoughtful people ... and EVERYTHING we planted is thriving despite the claymation version of “soil” we have in Daybreak.

~ Ryan Stevenson on Facebook

3 yrs ago I shopped all over the valley and no one would help me. I came here and Jesse greeted me with a smile and helped me map out my whole yard. I've been going here ever since. It's the best experience I've ever had and continue to have. 5 stars all the way!

~ Cami Harris on Facebook

Love this nursery - they're my go to. The owners and staff are extremely helpful and they go above and beyond make sure that I always have a good buying experience. Also, they're super accommodating when it comes to deliveries and finding specialty trees / shrubs that are not in stock. If they don't have a particular plant available on-site, let them know and they'll get it for you!
