Mesquite Valley Growers Nursery

About

Thomas Birt started Mesquite Valley Growers on one acre in the early 1990s. It has grown into a 22-acre farm in the middle of an eastside neighborhood, with greenhouses, shade houses and its own orchid greenhouse. They grow much of what they sell: roses, citrus, herbs, cactus and agave from small pots to 36-inch boxes. The gift shop carries pottery, fountains and copper sculpture. Look for the funny signs around the grounds.
