Our Story
Nestled along Kingtown Road in the heart of Ash, North Carolina, Waccamaw River Farm and Nursery has been a cornerstone of the community for decades. We are a family-owned retail nursery dedicated to bringing the finest plants, trees, and gardening supplies to home gardeners and professional landscapers alike.
Our growing racks and outdoor beds are home to a carefully curated selection of flowering perennials, shade and shade-tolerant trees, ornamental shrubs, vegetables, and seasonal color — all nurtured to withstand the unique climate of the Upper Cape Fear region.
What sets us apart is not just what we grow, but how we grow it: with patience, expertise, and a genuine commitment to helping every customer find exactly what their space needs.
What We Offer
From the first seedling to the final harvest, we provide the plants, products, and knowledge to make your outdoor space flourish.
A rotating selection of vibrant perennials and seasonal annuals, chosen for their resilience and beauty in the coastal plain climate. Fresh stock arrives throughout the growing season.
Ornamental and shade trees, foundation shrubs, and evergreens — all grown locally and acclimated to our region. We help you choose the right specimen for the right place.
Premium potting soils, mulches, fertilizers, tools, pots, and irrigation supplies — everything you need to support healthy growth from planting through harvest.
Our knowledgeable staff is always on hand to answer questions about plant selection, soil preparation, pest management, and seasonal care tailored to your specific garden.
Not sure where to start? We offer personalized consultations to help you design a landscape that complements your property and thrives in your conditions.
Each season brings new arrivals — spring bulbs, summer color, autumn mums, and winter evergreens — plus timely specials and bundles to make gardening more accessible.

What Our Customers Say
We measure our success by the gardens that grow — and the relationships we build along the way.
I have been shopping at Waccamaw River for over a decade. Their plant quality is consistently outstanding, and the staff remembers my name and my garden preferences every visit.
They helped me choose the right shade trees for a difficult spot under power lines — something big-box stores could never do. My yard has never looked better.
The seasonal selection is remarkable. Every spring I find perennials here I simply cannot find anywhere else in the area. A true hidden gem for serious gardeners.
