Rooted in Tradition. Growing for Tomorrow

Valley Hills Nursery has been a beloved part of Carmel Valley for generations — and today, our roots run deeper than ever.

Still proudly family-owned by Rick and Liz Richardson and thoughtfully managed by Carly Conley, Valley Hills Nursery is a place where sustainability, artistry, and natural beauty come together.

We’ve reimagined the nursery experience, blending California’s rugged charm with timeless garden elegance. Our curated plant selection is grown almost entirely with OMRI-certified products, ensuring every bloom and branch is nurtured with care and environmental responsibility.

Whether you’re searching for:

• Drought-tolerant natives
• Lush tropicals
• Seasonal Color
• Oasis Inspired House Plants
• Edible gardens
• Mature landscape trees

— we have everything you need to create breathtaking, enduring outdoor spaces.

Whether you’re a seasoned landscape professional or an inspired home gardener, you’ll find not just plants here — but inspiration.

Design. Build. Grow.

Beyond our retail space, Valley Hills Nursery offers full-service landscaping — custom-designed to bring your vision to life with thoughtful planning and expert craftsmanship.

General Manager Carly Conley specializes in edible gardens and micro farms, transforming everyday spaces into abundant, living feasts. Her passion for sustainability and beauty is woven into every project we take on.

A Nursery. A Team. A Family.

Many of our team members, including the owners’ daughters, work side-by-side every day — and while not all of us are family by blood, we operate like one. With shared dedication, heart, and deep love for this land, we’ve built a team that feels like home.

Visit us. Wander. Stay a while.

Discover a world where nature’s beauty meets family tradition — and every garden begins with a story.
