How we work
Great landscaping doesn't just happen. It's designed.
Whether you're a weekend DIYer or you want the whole thing done for you, we start the same way. A designer walks your property, talks through your vision, the site's challenges and your budget, then draws a plan that fits all three, and stays involved right through planting.
- Personal serviceOur knowledgeable staff is ready to answer all of your questions and help you find the right plant for your situation, whatever the size of the job.
- Constant improvementWe keep improving what we offer, from the varieties we carry to the air-root pruning containers we grow our trees in.
- Quality plant materialWe agree to provide top quality nursery stock, true to name, free from disease, sound and healthy. That promise is written into our warranty.
- A sense of communitySince 1988 Knecht's has been a fixture in Northfield, and we work at fostering a sense of community within our 10 acres.
Over 1,000 varieties, chosen for Minnesota
