Restoring Ontario's landscapes with source-identified native plants

We constantly strive to collect, grow, and supply a diverse range of quality Ontario native plants to support ecological restoration and biodiversity conservation

What is biodiversity conservation?

It's our reason for being: At St. Williams Nursery & Ecology Centre, we help to protect the natural genetic diversity of local plant species populations to benefit the environment and everyone living in it.

Why St. Williams?

As a dedicated conservation nursery and ecological restoration provider, we take a scientific approach by bringing together a team of leading environmental scientists and practitioners, nursery growers, foresters, and technical experts to support and supply your projects & initiatives.
