North River Greenhouse & Landscaping

OUR STORY

We are both Valley Natives and feel proud to call this our home. When we decided to start this business in 1996, we knew that Alamosa and the surrounding towns deserved more of what the city has to offer but keep the small town feel that makes the Valley so special.
Wade began his life as a productive member in his family farm. Growing up in fields of potatoes, wheat, barley and alfalfa has given him an understanding of the growing needs of plants and the vital role thatsoil health plays in healthy growth and production. Additionally, his knowledge in working large areas of land has given him the ability to see large projects from start to finish. He currently oversees the commercial projects that NRG is awarded. I am a graduate of Adams State College with a Masters degree in Education. I taught Elementary school in Alamosa for many years. The opportunity to expand the company arose and so I decided that the time it would take was going to be more than a part time position would allow, so I decided to leave my position with the school district and go to work full time for NRG. Wade and I wanted to create a store
that is different from your typical box stores. We wanted a place where the community could come together for learning and fun. In addition to working in this industry for 22 years, I have also been a student of the on line Master Gardener Program through CSU and can help you with many of your gardening/grower needs.
