PRT Vernon

PRT Vernon is located in the North Okanagan, plant hardiness zone 5, overlooking the north arm of Okanagan Lake. The arid climate and 152 frost-free days annually are ideal for the production of both open compound and greenhouse grown 1+0 crops. The nursery is situated on 34 ha (84 acres) and contributes to the City of Vernon's environmental management program by utilizing treated waste water for irrigating seedling crops.

The nursery produces 13 million open compound and 3 million 1+0 greenhouse grown crops annually. All commercial tree species planted in Canada and the western United States can be grown at PRT Vernon. In addition, PRT Vernon is able to produce all of our customer's native plant needs.
