Our History
It all started when Steve King, after working for Hillenmeyer Nurseries for several years, knew he wanted to own his own garden center. He received that opportunity when he, along with his wife, Joanne, and children, Jessica, Wesley and Becca, purchased the former Binford’s Garden Center/Hillenmeyers in Danville, Ky. in 1993. The Kings renamed this garden center, Stonegate Gardens, after the two stone columns at the entrance. It was here that the King children learned how to water, weed and pot annual/perennials. It was our pleasure to serve the people in the Danville, Harrodsburg, Somerset area until Stonegate was sold in 2003.
