Winding Creek Nursery & Garden Center Inc.

During the 1920's, Ralph Perkins started a business that was one day to become Winding Creek Nursery, Inc. He sold vegetables and flowers and vegetable bedding plants on his truck farm located on Baseline Road in Bristol. In March of 1957, he and his family moved to Millbrook, our present location, and his sons, Bill and Fred, and daughter, Betty, soon joined the business. Nursery stock was planted in the fields and the selling of vegetable and flower bedding plants continued.
Winding Creek has continued to expand over the years, not only in the terms of acreage, but in types and varieties of trees, shrubs, annuals, perennials, and vegetable plants. We have 160 acres in which we have nursery stock growing. Although much of the stock is grown on the premises, Winding Creek also ships in some of the special varieties that are native to Northern Illinois.
