Since the early 1940s, Kawahara Nurseries has worked to grow and supply quality nursery plants to retailers in the California region.

With this foundation, sons David and John, expanded the nursery to Morgan Hill, California in the early 80s where they broadened product selection to premium annuals, perennials and edibles in quart and gallon sizes.Today, Kawahara Nurseries continues to operate with multiple generations of family members and its 200+ employees. Spanning over 140 acres and offering more than 10,000 plant varieties, they currently grow in two facilities in Morgan Hill and Gilroy.
