Sterling Greenery has been named one of the most revolutionary garden centers in the country 2 years in a row!
Our story......
It all began back in 1996 with a small lawn maintenance company called Total Lawn Care. Mark and Karen Packard got married and lived in a small house in Ashburnam MA. and ran a landscape maintenance company out of their home. The neighbors were very tolerant of the equipment in the driveway and even let Mark borrow their sons for extra labor from time to time. After a couple of years, Karen moved out of the office and into the field doing planting jobs and delivering materials to the crew. By 2001 Total Lawn Care was offering installation of plants, walkways, walls, and water features. Mark and Karen out grew their home based business and needed a place to expand so they packed up the 2 kids, sold the house, and moved into the Sterling Greenery. For 4 years Karen and mark lived at the greenery with 2 kids and slowly rebuilt what was once a great garden center. Now after 10 years. Karen and Mark live in Sterling and Mark runs the garden center with the "Green Team". Sterling Greenery is open 7 to 7 - 7 days a week and offers a 3 year guarantee on all trees and shrubs. Sterling Greenery offers delivery service, installation of plants, ponds and patios, and a unique design service called "Traveling Greenery". Sterling Greenery has grow to be the top distributor of Aquascape pond supplies and Unilock pavers as well as Pennsylvania Pride plant material in the area. This year Sterling Greenery opened an additional location on West Boylston St. In Worcester. This new location offers the same shrubs and trees as the main store as well as in color perennials and annuals. Pond supplies continue to be a strong interest for us at all locations.
