Visit The Green People in Kingsport, TN
Evergreen of Colonial Heights is the oldest garden center in East Tennessee founded in 1966 by Auke and Sarah Valk, Dutch immigrants. Their 4 sons continued the family business upon Auke & Sarah's retirement and now Evergreen of Colonial Heights is a 3rd generation family business. Evergreen of Colonial Heights is currently owned and operated by Auke & Sarah's youngest son, Michael Valk. His two daughters, Jessica & Sarah, and his wife Laura work alongside him. The Green People have served gardeners in East Tennessee and Southwest Virginia since 1966 at several locations. We have consolidated into one centrally-located garden center in Colonial Heights and focus on expanding our storefront to provide you with a wide array of your gardening needs. We believe that no one has a black thumb so come visit us at 1876 Moreland Drive, Kingsport, TN!
