Robbins Nursery and Landscaping is a well-established company based in Virginia, with a rich history dating back to 1959. Founded by Walter Robbins, the nursery began its journey as a small venture that started with the sale of his wife’s car to purchase a truck for business purposes. Initially, Robbins Nursery focused on landscaping services for large construction companies during the 1960s. Over the subsequent decades, the company evolved, expanding its offerings to include a full-fledged garden center and a gift shop in the 1970s and 80s. By the 1990s, Robbins Nursery was undertaking heavy landscaping projects in Richmond, Washington D.C., and Maryland, demonstrating its capacity and expertise in the region's landscaping needs.
However, the late 1990s marked a strategic shift for the company, moving its focus toward topsoil screening and related landscaping materials. This transition allowed Robbins Nursery to become a leading supplier of bulk topsoil and landscaping materials for contractors, landscapers, and homeowners alike. With the involvement of Walter Robbins' son Mark in 1999, the company retained its commitment to quality and service while continuing to adapt to the changing market needs.
Today, Robbins Nursery is recognized for its high-quality products, including dyed and natural mulch, sand, and soils designed to meet diverse landscaping requirements. They provide professional-grade landscaping materials and services while maintaining outstanding personal service. The company has invested in an array of equipment, enabling it to handle various construction-related projects, ranging from supplying materials to working with land developers for large clearing and demolition tasks. The commitment to competitive rates and innovative service enhancements continues to make Robbins Nursery a dependable partner in the landscaping industry.
