Alberta Tree Nursery and Horticulture Centre
The Alberta Tree Nursery and Horticulture Centre is a branch of the Plant Industry Division of Alberta Agriculture. This center and the Alberta Horticultural Research Centre, located in southern Alberta at Brooks, comprise the provincial government's program of support and involvement in horticulture. The Tree Nursery and Horticulture Centre is located approximately 3 km northeast of the present boundary of the rapidly expanding City of Edmonton. The grounds of the nursery occupy nearly one section of land. This extensive holding is used primarily for the production of planting stock, which Alberta Agriculture distributes to Alberta farmers and acreage owners through the shelterbelt program.
