Thanks For Making It Possible For Us To G R O W
We are starting our 45th year of business at Fuston’s
Nursery. Randall began
operation in the spring of 1979.
Starting with only 4 – 5 varieties, he gradually increased to
nearly 30 varieties of trees and shrubs.
As the needs of his customers changed to some varieties in
more demand than others, He gradually stopped planting some
varieties while doubling the amount planted of some.
Eventually he focused the operation to 3 varieties, Bradford,
Cleveland, and Aristocrat Pears for bare root and B&B (balled and
burlap). Bare root sizes
included 2’ – 7’ liners and 2-year liners with sizes of ¾” to 1 ½”.
B & B trees are sizes 1 ½” to 3 ½” with ball sizes ranging
18” to 34”.
After nearly 20
years of operation, Brandon became a partner in the operation with
his parents. Working
together as a family, the inventory climbed to growing approximately
60,000 trees for bare root and approximately 25,000 for B&B.
They have maintained growing these numbers (some years
growing more) each year.
In the spring of
2018, Brandon began overseeing the day to day operation and decided
to expand and have a little more diverse variety of trees.
It was during this transition, that Brandon decided to start
growing several varieties in containers for liners to later be
planted for B&B operation and selling some to his customers. These
additions to our inventory contain many common varieties needed for
today’s market. Various
Redbuds, Maples, Oaks, along with a variety of native species as
well.
We acknowledge that
we are not a large-scale nursery, in fact, we are a small family
owned operation. But
what you will find is quality trees being grown with great customer
service.
When
purchasing trees from us, you will find that we take growing
high-quality trees as priority for our customers.
When purchasing liners, the same liners you will receive will
come out of the same group of trees that we plant for our B&B
operation. We firmly
believe planting #1 grade trees, because if you start planting
sub-par trees, then sub-par trees are all you will ever have.
We are state
certified and ship all over the U.S. and sell to several local
nurseries in Tennessee.
We look forward
to hearing from you and will do what we can to make your nursery
ordering experience a pleasure.
