Riverina Nursery

On Mackay Avenue in Yoogali, just outside Griffith, this family-owned nursery has been growing trees and shrubs for the Riverina since 1959 — a long enough history that it now counts more than fifty years of membership with the Nursery and Garden Industry of NSW. It is a working production nursery as much as a retail destination, supplying landscapers, councils, schools and developers alongside everyday gardeners, and topping up its own range by sourcing from some of the country's better production growers when needed. The result is a stock list built for practical, regional gardening — trees and shrubs suited to inland New South Wales conditions rather than a boutique edit of rare specimens — with roses among the retail offerings photographed on site. It's the kind of place where the business itself is the attraction: a site that has clearly grown into its role over six decades, serving trade and retail customers from the same paddocks and greenhouses. Open six days, with generous weekday hours and a Saturday morning slot for home gardeners fitting in errands, it rewards a considered visit rather than a quick dash — worth the drive out from town for anyone planting seriously, or simply for those who want their trees and shrubs to have already proven themselves in Riverina soil.
