Welcome to Altro Garden Nursery

We are a small family run nursery based in Kitchener, Ontario that has a huge passion for growing fruiting plants. Our plants range from rare exotics from South America to permaculture inspired plants that fertilize your soil.

Importing rare fruit from a southern climate to Canada is expensive, impractical, and often not even possible. If you desire rare foreign fruit that is seldom seen in Canada, your best option may be to grow the fruiting plants themselves. Here we provide some rare exotic fruiting plants that can be grown in pots and cared for in your own home.

For fruiting plants that can be grown outside, we sell many permaculture inspired plants that can be grown depending on your plant hardiness zone. Many of these plants produce edible fruit, are nitrogen fixers, or are just simply rare to find. Permaculture gardening is a great and ecological way to create a year-round feast on your property. Please consider using this approach if it is new to you.

***Due to unprecedented demand, we are out as of June 2020 of most of our listed plants but we should have many back in stock by July/ August 2021. We will be adding more plant varieties in late Summer, so please check back to view our new plants. ** Please Note that we have a number of fig varieties that are not in our website, but are available by email: Italian Black, Black Jack, Petite Negri, Paradiso, LSU Gold, Flanders, Nazareth, Armenian, LSU Everbearing, Celeste, Ronde de Bordeaux, Early Violet and Bayernfeige Violetta.** Go to our Contact Us page to inquire.**
