The E.C. Browns' Nursery

Our nursery is a friendly 'mom & pop" operation nestled in the middle of, Thetford Center, a small picturesque Vermont town. Started by Elmer Brown in 1967, with just seven plants and a vision, E.C. Browns' Nursery, Inc. has expanded to supply interesting and hardy plants to the Upper Valley. We grow, sell and plant an ever increasing selection of ornamental trees, shrubs, evergreens and herbaceous perennials

 Design and Installation of complete landscape projects, both residential and commercial, continues to be a large focus of our business. During the landscape season, we generally have 2-3 crews of professional landscapers installing high quality plant material throughout the Upper Valley region. Right now our crews have a cumulative 75 years+ experience in planting and maintaining trees and shrubs.  


At our Garden Center, we have an experienced plant person on site at all times to answer your questions. Our knowledgeable staff strives to keep abreast of the many new plant varieties to help the needs of the expanding gardening public. Plant enthusiasts are our best friends! Come share your plant stories with us.
We have thousands of perennials on hand at any given time, giving us one of the best selections of perennials around! Come look around...we have big( up to 8" caliper trees that are 25-30') and we have small (lovely alpines that are 2" by 4"). Our overall plant selection is second to none, we are proud of this, and if you can't find it among our stockpile of plants we'll do our best to try and locate what you need.  

 

Although we carry most of the ironclad and standard plant choices, we try to focus on rarer and underused plants. We have been collecting some of the harder to find varieties so that we can propagate them and offer them to you as quickly as possible. Primulas, Alpines, Azaleas, Hostas, Native shrubs and Lilacs are just some of the plant groups that we have been focusing on.
