A Family of Nurserymen since 1915

The Johnson family has been growing plants in Putnam County Tennessee for 107 years.  The operation of the nursery and garden center is now run by the fifth generation Charlie and David Johnson.

Around 1915

W.L. Johnson would travel by horse and buggy to East Tennessee and Southern Kentucky in the early 1900's to take orders for nursery plants to be delivered later at planting time.

Our original family nursery in Baxter, Tennessee is now a Century Farm.  Chuck's grandfather purchased the original farm in 1918 and has been in family ownership since then.
