Pound's Nursery was founded in 1950 by the late Darwin Pound. Darwin had a vision of fields of evergreen trees growing in sections of four rows with a roadway between each section.
Twila and Darwin Pound were married in 1969 at which time Twila became secretary of Pound's Nursery. Upon the death of Darwin in 1995, she became the president and owner of Pound's Nursery, continuing the vision that had been started. Throughout the years Pound's Nursery has continued to enlarge from its small and meager beginnings. To date it consists of 500 acres plus of White Pine, Colorado Blue Spruce, Fraser Fir, Austrian Pine, Norway Spruce, Balsam Fir, Concolor Fir, White Spruce, and the newest tree in the arena, the Canaan Fir. Pound's Nursery is a wholesale evergreen nursery - family owned and operated. Pound's Nursery was formed for the purpose of supplying customers with high quality, competitively priced dug and cut trees, delivered when promised and to the specification required. David Keener is the manager of Pound's Nursery. He has been affiliated with the nursery since 1985. Under his leadership and direction Pound's Nursery continues to grow and maintain its production of quality trees. 95 percent of the trees that are harvested each year are balled for replanting and 5 percent are cut for Christmas. Each spring, new seedlings are planted at Pound's Nursery to replace those harvested the previous year. Trees beautify the land, make a home for wildlife as well as cleanse the air, provide oxygen, and protect the water supply. The Vision Continues:Nancy, Esther, Michael, Megan, Joshua, and Daniel. Pound's Nursery extends a special thanks to Nancy and Esther for their unique advice and encouragement. A special thanks to all of our valued customers who have allowed a vision to become a reality. As Pound's Nursery enters each new year, we always anticipate great new happenings and believe the best is yet to come. |
