Somerville Nurseries Inc.

Starting back in the 1950's, Somerville Nurseries Inc. was founded by John Somerville; following the path of his grandfather and uncles, who were all involved in Forestry operations in Ontario. John began planting trees onto harvested timber lands as a side business after studying Forestry at University of Toronto. This land within the Alliston area was perfect for Evergreens, which became Somerville's specialization.
