About WinterCreek Nursery

WinterCreek started in 1993 with the vision to provide native plants as an alternative for homeowners and contractors interested in working outside the norm. Over the past 33 years, WinterCreek has grown to be the largest native plant nursery in central Oregon, and still propagates over 200 native species from seed collected throughout the dryland west by our own crew. Our mission remains the same — to provide native plants for restoration and created landscapes — but our approach continues to evolve.

In early 2024, WinterCreek Nursery became an integral part of the High Desert Horticultural Center with the primary mission of inspiring ecological integrity and improving sustainability of urban landscapes by increasing the understanding of native vegetation in created landscapes. WinterCreek continues to provide plants to retail and wholesale customers, but profits now support this mission and the work of the HDHC.

As WinterCreek continues to grow, so do the opportunities to train the next generation of conservation horticulturists. Our focus has always stayed the same, but our approach continues to evolve and our impact continues to expand. Thank you for being part of this journey.

So, whether you are looking for 1 or 1000 plants, contact us or visit the nursery to see how we can support your your project! Looking for larger quantities? Custom growing available on request.
