We sell plants and home & garden gifts inspired by nature.
A vision blossoms into reality: The roots of Bowood Farms’ location in the Central West End were first planted in the fields of Clarksville, Missouri, in 1989. After nearly two decades of growing a strong reputation as a wholesale perennial grower, Bowood Farms decided to expand its reach into the St. Louis retail market. Strong family ties to the Central West End led to the discovery of a decaying automotive repair/plastics/cabinet manufacturing warehouse dating back to the 1920s, in which the visionaries at Bowood Farms saw the makings of a natural greenhouse-style facility. Excited to join in the revitalization efforts taking place in the city of St. Louis, they began the rehab of the building in January 2005 and filled it with plants in April 2006.
Today, Bowood Farms’ CWE location still receives the majority of its plants from the 4th-generation family farm in Clarksville. The Bowood team continually seeks out the best plant vendors to complement their offerings so there is always something blooming no matter what time of year. Inspired by the concept of uniting house and garden, the new retail venture also allowed for Bowood Farms to expand its offerings to include an enticing selection of home and garden gifts that are inspired by nature and bring the outdoors in. No matter what brings you through the big chartreuse doors, you will definitely enjoy the experience!
