Growing since 1936

Rooted in the Prairies, growing plants that help communities flourish.
We supply northern-hardy trees, shrubs, and prairie-native perennials and grasses to support landscape construction, urban forestry, and naturalization projects across Western Canada and the northern U.S.A.

From our origins supplying cold-hardy fruit trees and shrubs to prairie communities during the Dust Bowl and Great Depression, Lakeshore has grown alongside those who plant with purpose. For decades, we supported Saskatoon-area homeowners and landscapers through our nursery and retail garden centre, known for reliable advice and healthy plants. Today, our focus is wholesale supply, delivering dependable solutions tailored to the diverse needs of municipalities, landscape professionals, urban forestry departments, environmental consultants, and shelterbelt projects. Our custom growing programs and keen interest in prairie and parkland ecology support naturalization and restoration efforts. As a family-run nursery, we’re proud to combine generations of practical knowledge with a commitment to stewardship and continuous improvement.

At Lakeshore, we don’t just grow plants—we help grow communities. Whether your goals are ecological restoration or urban beautification, we’re here to support your success with resilient stock and experienced guidance.

Supplying the Green Industry

We understand the timing and care required to deliver live plants successfully to landscape construction sites and community planting projects. Having healthy plants arrive on-site—on time and in the right condition—is essential. That’s why our team prioritizes coordination, communication, and reliability at every step. Over the years, we’ve built strong relationships with trusted transport companies and couriers, allowing us to offer dependable delivery solutions across Western Canada and beyond. Whether your project is local or long-distance, our goal is always the same: to ensure your plants arrive ready to thrive, exactly when you need them.

Plant Propagation

We take pride in starting the majority of our plants right here, be they from seed or cloning by cuttings and bud-grafting. To ensure hardiness for zone 2b, we choose our seed and selections with great scrutiny and pay heed to generational knowledge. We have 10 acres of high density seedbeds, annually propagate 100,000 rooted cuttings, and bud-graft 20,000-30,000 trees.

Our Tree Farm

Just minutes from Saskatoon in the South Saskatchewan River Valley, our 250-acre irrigated farm is home to a wide and carefully managed selection of hardy nursery stock. Lakeshore is recognized as Saskatchewan and Manitoba's leading producer of field-dug, basketed trees,and one of the major suppliers to the Alberta market supplying landscape professionals with well-rooted, prairie-tested material. Alongside our field production, we grow a broad range of containerized trees suited for urban planting, ecological restoration, and large-scale projects across northern and central climates. Every tree we grow is handled with care and built to perform in demanding environments.

Landscape Shrubs and more...

We are Saskatchewan’s largest grower of containerized landscape shrubs, offering a carefully curated selection that combines trusted prairie staples with promising new introductions. Each plant is chosen for its hardiness, performance, and landscape value—ready to bring structure, color, and texture to parks, commercial spaces, and residential gardens alike. Whether you’re enhancing an existing space or building something new, our shrubs are ready to take root and thrive for years to come.

a Farm, a Family, A home

Lakeshore has always been a family-owned business and, first and foremost, a farm. This isn’t just where we work—it’s where we live. Lakeshore Tree Farms is home. Together with our skilled and dedicated crew, we are proud that our 250-acre farm supports over 20 families—a rarity in a region where large grain farms are often run by just a few. Over our 88 years in business (and counting), we’ve had the privilege of seeing team members spend decades with us, many right through to retirement. Their loyalty, knowledge, and hard work have been instrumental in shaping who we are today—and continue to guide where we’re growing next.
