We know your time is valuable so here's a "thumbnail sketch" of who we are.

  • We are: WESTVIEW FARMS, LLC Perennials & Herbs
  • Our Motto: OUR PLANTS GROW
  • Family owned independent retail nursery & garden center.
  • Opened to the public in 1983.
  • In our humble opinion: we offer one of the finest selections of high quality perennials, herbs, ornamental grasses, ferns, vines specialty shrubs and native plants in South Western Michigan <find us!>
  • We also feature garden related gifts and merchandise and provide a range of professional landscape services.
  • True personalized service, expert advice and information.

O.K. Those are the "facts".... Pared down and even kind of dry. But if you'll bear with us while we indulge in a bit of "philosophy," we'll let you know what we think makes WESTVIEW FARMS Perennials & Herbs unique, worthy of a visit, and why we can say "OUR PLANTS GROW."

 

Our Philosophy:

GARDENING SHOULD BE FUN, RELAXING AND REWARDING. Otherwise, what's the point?

So we think it follows that visiting a nursery/garden center should also be FUN, RELAXING AND REWARDING!

WESTVIEW's News!

Lee Ver Schure one of several speakers at regional botanic garden! The lecture titled

EDIBLES IN THE LANDSCAPE!!! was delivered Tuesday evening, April 26th, at Frederik Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park as part of their “Successful Gardener Series”.

Participants learned all about this hot new ‘Green’ trend in landscaping as guest lecturer –

our own Lee Ver Schure – introduced and highlighted an array of fascinating “dual purpose”, “ornamental edible” plants and shared various tips on their placement and culture. (Psst: Butterflies flutter by in the Lena Meijer Tropical Conservatory through April 30th!)

 

We are proud that Lee Ver Schure of WESTVIEW FARMS, LLC is serving on the Horticultural Advisory Board of Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Lee also served as President of the Board of Directors of the West Michigan Nursery and Landscape Association in 2006 - 2007.
