Plants may be what we grow, but relationships are a pretty important part of what we do, too. 🌱🤝

Our Business Development Manager, Charlie Varze, is sharing a little about the connections and community behind Open Farm Days.

One of our favourite parts of opening Eagle Lake to the public is getting the chance to meet more of the people in our community — whether you’re a longtime customer, a fellow member of the agriculture or horticulture industry, an avid gardener, or someone visiting the farm for the very first time.

It’s a chance to ask questions, swap stories, learn from one another and get to know the people behind the businesses in your community.

Open Farm Days is well underway, so come out, say hello to Charlie and the rest of the Eagle Lake crew, and spend some time with us on the farm! 🌳💚

Come meet the faces behind the plants! 👋🌱

Our Sales & Marketing Manager, Danielle Hall, has a simple message for you today: come on down, meet the crew and check out some plants!

There are a whole lot of people behind everything we grow at Eagle Lake, and Open Farm Days is your chance to meet some of them, ask questions and see what life at the nursery is really like.

And while you’re here… you might just find a new plant (or three 😉) to take home with you.

We’re here and the farm is open — come say hi! 🌳💚

For more than 55 years, growing has been at the heart of Eagle Lake Nurseries. 🌳💚

Today, we’re excited to share a few words from our CEO, Anita Heuver, about what Open Farm Days means to Eagle Lake and why we love having the opportunity to welcome our community onto the farm.

It’s a chance to see where plants begin, meet some of the people who grow them, and experience a side of Eagle Lake you don’t normally get to see!

Take a listen to Anita — and if you haven’t visited us yet, come experience Open Farm Days for yourself! 🌱🚜

HAVE YOU SEEN OUR TREE FARM? 🌳

From the road, it’s difficult to imagine just how far Eagle Lake Nurseries stretches.

For more than 55 years, our family-owned nursery has been putting down roots in the community. Today, approximately 1,000 acres are filled with row upon row of Prairie-hardy trees and plants grown for parks, neighbourhoods, businesses, and landscapes across Western Canada.

During Alberta Open Farm Days, we’re inviting you through the gates to experience the scale of one of Alberta’s largest nurseries for yourself.

🌱 Thousands of plants growing across the farm
🌳 Trees that may take nearly 10 years to reach maturity
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Generations of horticultural knowledge
🤝 A family-owned business with deep community roots

We’re proud of how much Eagle Lake Nurseries has grown, but even prouder of the people, partnerships, and communities that have helped us thrive over the past 55 years.

Come see our tree farm from an entirely new perspective!
