History

Owned by Arlene Savory and her son Dennis, Savory's Gardens is a long standing nursery business, originating in 1946, Savory's is nestled into a residential neighborhood south dotted with vegetable and hobby farms. The Savory family originally owned 12 acres, but as their property was sold off for residential development, they continued to maintain their homestead and family business.
