Yes, we have a Custom Growing program. If you are interested in learning more about it, click here.

While we do grow a small number of native species, we grow a larger number of named cultivars of native species.

You bet! We maintain plant inventory 12 months of the year, however, our selection varies depending on the season.

While plug trays aren’t something we grow and sell as a part of our current container lineup, we do grow them by request.  We offer a Custom Growing service based on quantities needed. If we can’t grow them, we may be able to bring them in from one of our many vendor partners we work with throughout the industry. 

Millcreek grows over 98% of the plant material we sell with the primary exception being ornamental grasses shipped in the Spring, which we bring in from vendor partners in warmer climates. 

We are not certified organic, however, we do try to only use pesticides that are approved by OMRI (Organic Materials Review Institute). Additionally, our expert team of growers meticulously works to create the ideal environment to make sure our herbs and edibles are less prone to insects and diseases, so that pest controls are only used when needed. Our herbs and edible plants are also grown in greenhouses separate from our other plants that are grown in more conventional means. We are happy to supply you with our list of materials used for growing if needed.

Millcreek Gardens uses products approved by OMRI (Organic Materials Review Institute) for use on our herb and edible plants. The OMRI publishes an extensive independent review of products intended for use in organic production, handling and processing. OMRI’s standards are based on the USDA’s National Organic Standards Program.

We offer a Custom Growing service based on quantities needed. The organic certification process is lengthy and more costly, but we’d be happy to have a conversation with you on your needs.

Our Millcreek guarantee is “Love our product or send it back.” If for any reason you are not satisfied with something upon arrival at your facility, the plant material can be returned with our driver.

Yes! We produce many items that will not appear on our current Availability for various reasons. These plants may be cut back, small or oversize on top, off center in the pot, or otherwise not “Retail Ready”. Landscapers often purchase items from this group. You may request specific items you are looking for anytime, and we’ll let you know their status!
