About Us

• Creation Gardens and Design Inc. was founded in May 2001 by the Merritt family with the goal of providing the area with a professional landscape firm. The Merritts own and operate G & G Nursery, a wholesale grower of quality nursery stock. Since 1985, G & G Nursery has been growing quality planting material, currently farming over 200 acres along the Ohio River, giving Creation Gardens and Design unique access to quality pant material and years of growing experience. This helps make Creation Gardens and Design your first choice for top quality landscapes.
