In 1989, Yvonne and John Jaso purchased a vacant former wheat field on Plaza Way that would become Green Valley Nursery and, eventually, their home. Over the years they planted hundreds of shrubs and trees on the property, taking care of the land, managing its resources, and creating a sanctuary for plants, wildlife, and people to enjoy. In 2017, Yvonne and John’s stewardship role was passed on to a new generation. Their daughter, Anne, and their long-time employee, Naomi, now manage the nursery—and its beautiful grounds—under new stewardship as Green Valley Gardens Nursey and Arboretum.
Here we provide some additional background on the property’s history, as well as a self-guided tour map for customers who would like to explore the Green Valley Gardens arboretum.
