About Us
Owners Lucille and Alain Bouvier met in a tomato patch. Literally! Back in 1972, Lucille was working as an agriculture student at the Brooks Research Station where Alain was employed as a horticulture technician.
Lucille, originally from Lac La Biche, AB studied chemicals and pesticides at Vermilion Agricultural and Vocation College in Vermillion, AB, and graduated in 1973.
Alain is from Gravelbourg, SK studied horticulture at Olds College, AB graduated in 1969 and started working at the Crop Diversification Center at Brooks in 1971.
They married in 1973 and settled on a farmstead near Mazenod, SK in 1974, taking up a mix of farming and livestock. When their bedding plants started outselling the livestock, they sold off the rest of their cows and bought more seeds. The farm became known as Bouvier Greenhouses.
In 1991, they partnered up with a small group of greenhouse growers from southern Saskatchewan and started up the Plant Ranch Inc. Over the years, it has evolved into a family-owned and operated business.

Trees & Shrubs
Fruits & Vegetables
Annuals
Annuals are plants that only survive for one growing season. Some annuals, like tomatoes, produce fruit. Some annuals, like petunias, produce flowers. Both have to be planted in the spring. They also have to be pulled out when they die each fall. Some gardeners love to work in their gardens. Annuals can support this passion. Annuals often flower quicker and for longer periods which also appeals to some.
Perennials
Pond Plants
Most people will have their ponds outside in their yards. This can create issues for the pond plants that you select. Ideally, perennial plants that will survive through Saskatchewan winters are preferred. The Plant Ranch has the knowledge and the inventory you need for your prize pond. We can help you with the liner, design, and plants. Your Hardy Water Lilies and Arrowhead Plants will bring you great enjoyment of your pond.
Gardening Supplies
If you are going to work in your garden, you will need the right tools. The Plant Ranch has everything you’ll need to enrich your green thumb. We can accommodate your budget and garden plan. We carry trowels, plant materials for ponds, and fertilizer among other things. The Plant Ranch has a great section to choose from.
