CHRISTMAS TREES
In the early 1970's we decided to cut some of our Colorado Spruce and Douglas Fir to put in front of the farm house in hopes of selling Christmas Trees. Today we have three seperate Cut Your Own farms along with a Christmas shop and the freshest pre cut trees and homemade wreaths available.
REWHOLESALE YARD
In the early 1980's we saw a need for a rewholesale distribution center in Dutchess County. Along with our field grown material we have a 7 acre rewholesale yard offering a wide varieity of woody ornamentals, evergreens, and perennials for the landscapers and contractors needs.
GETTING STARTED
Founded by Dr. William B. Rawls and his wife Mary Palmer Rawls in 1959. Dr. Rawls and his wife had a private medical practice in Manhattan from 1926 until 1979. In the late 1930's they purchased a home and land in Pleasant Valley New York which is now Bilmar Nurseries.The Doctor and his wife would spend weekends and summers with their two children (Bryant and Jan-Elizabeth) cultivating the land into what it is today. Bilmar Nurseries is now managed by William Bryant Rawls Jr and his son Scott Case.
