Rolling Green Nursery Named Top 100 Independent Garden Center

GREENLAND, NH — Rolling Green Nursery has been named one of the largest independent garden centers in the United States and Canada by Garden Center Magazine among a prestigious list of others. The Greenland garden center ranked 96 on the Top 100 list, which was published in September and sponsored by American Hort and Bloem. The Garden Center Top 100 is based on sales volume from independent garden centers and is reported by each company listed.

“Our Top 100 list includes some of the best and brightest leaders in the garden center industry,” said Garden Center Editor Michelle Simakis. “In addition, we profiled 19 of these companies from across our list and across the country to find out what makes them successful.”

Rick and Beth Simpson, owners of Rolling Green, said, “We are so honored that the hard work of our team has been recognized. Our staff is passionate about helping the community be successful in their landscape and organic decor projects, and it is humbling to be recognized as a leading resource for this community.”
