History
In 1975, Patrice started very small with a greenhouse at his father's farm. He opened a kiosk and bought 22 000 square feet in Rogersville.
In 1984, he bought a garden center in Richibucto. He then opened a garden center in Miramichi in 1987.
In 1991, a partnership was formed with his brother Charles and Anne in Richibucto. He then decided to buy the old tree nursery in St-Paul de Kent, which raised Patrice and Lise's selling capacity to 100 000 square feet.
