FLORIDA SERIES – KRAFT GARDENS
Sandy: Hello. We are here today at Kraft Gardens and I would like to introduce you to Kevin Kraft owner,
president and head grower of Kraft Gardens. Kevin is going to share with us a little bit about the history of
Kraft Gardens.
Kevin: Hi. Kraft Gardens started back with my father in 1947 and started out as a small lawn service down
in Fort Lauderdale, Florida and eventually he worked his way into landscaping and then a wholesale
nursery and then last year we moved from down there to up here and opened this facility and closed that
facility down there. We have about 850 thousand square foot of houses here and we are growing mostly
indoor plants that are shipped all over the United States. Products that we have here are mostly ficus trees,
the new varieties from Holland, some beautiful palm trees for the interior, and those types of indoor species
for the interiorscape market and the homeowner.
