Grimes Horticulture Announces Closing

After 95 years in business, Grimes Horticulture has announced the company is in the process of closing down.

In a statement to the industry, Gary Grimes said, “Grimes managed the timing of this carefully and has paid over 95% of our obligations to vendors.”

He continued, “We are extremely proud of our exceptional employees who have been as dedicated and productive as any company could possibly ask for.”

Owners Gary Grimes and Rod LeDrew will assist employees seeking new positions of employment.

In the meantime, Grimes will see that plant orders, already placed for the current season, will be fulfilled. They will also follow up to assist with seed orders that have been placed with Grimes.

Questions should be directed to Bill Steen, president, at bsteen@grimes-hort.com or 440.417.4822.
