Welcome!

Tom EwingWhether a valued customer, supplier or friend, our company appreciates the continued opportunity to work with you. Thanks to you, our business continues to be presented with opportunities to improve our product lines, product quality, and services... while adding exceptional associates to our staff.

The past few months saw Miramar Wholesale Nurseries receive much appreciated recognition. Hopefully you saw MWN featured in the May issue of NM Pro magazine. Staff writer Todd Davis summarized MWN's acquisition of Vista Hill Nursery and outlined the attributes of our business. Additionally, Condo Management's October issue featured MWN in a cover story, the October issue of The San Diego Union-Tribune featured a cover story on Cuyamaca College's ESL landscape industry classes (held in the spring and fall at our facilities), and the October issue of the San Diego County Farm Bureau News featured our company as their commodity profile. All articles are posted on the MWN Web page, which is also updated frequently with current product availability and information.

While these months continue to be active with traditional commercial landscaping activity, our facility is preparing for the arrival of Christmas trees. In addition to distributing to local tree lots, MWN supplies Christmas trees to many of the area's commercial properties and centers. Poinsettias, garland and wreaths are also available to complement your holiday presentation. Give us a call soon to reserve your tree.

We are pleased to share our current activities and progress with you in the hope that we are enhancing our ability to support your business and our industry. Our business goal continues to be that of a professional, dependable industry support member striving to assist your business success. We value our association and wish you the very best of holiday seasons.
