Life

Merry Christmas. We are very thankful for your business and the privilege to share our trees on your projects. Our team at Garden Gate works hard to water, fertilize, and shape a tree that will stand the test of time in the urban environments that most of them are destined to grow in.

We love spending time at our Oregon home, as we call it, and leaving our home open for visitors during much of the year when we’re not there. It is a pleasure to enjoy the quiet mornings and to light a fire in the fireplace.

“Gratitude doesn’t change the scenery. It merely washes clean the glass you look through so you can clearly see the colors” (Richelle Goodrich). With fall here bringing its magnificent change of leaf color, it is a good time to really stop, reflect and express our gratitude.

Garden Gate Nursery will be temporarily closed for in-person appointments until the end of August. This decision has been made in response to the extreme summer heat we will be experiencing over the next few weeks.

As solar farms become more prevalent, integrating trees into these installations can offer many benefits, enhancing both the environment and the community.

Does this look familiar to you? It might. It’s a common sight in the Tri-Cities Washington this time of year. Maple trees start to yellow and look terrible.
