Our Natives and More Plant Nursery Division is a relatively new branch of our operation. It fits our company values as there is a need

for native plants for environmentally friendly landscapes.

These same plants are used in large scale agency driven restoration, mitigation and reforestation projects that are vital to maintain a balance between proper growth and environmental stewardship.

There are great challenges in our native plant production as these plants are produced from seed, from cuttings and from division. There is an art and science to such forms of production from scouting and collecting seed at the right time mimicking nature in its countless sprouting techniques. The same is true for the cuttings and division.

We are proud of the role we play in providing plants for these purposes and equally proud of the diligent work of our employees to maintain quality plants for your selection

The Island Grove Ag Products Blueberry Nursery Division is one of the largest commercial producers in the state. We have nearly a full acre of greenhouse space dedicated to this operation with the capabilities of producing millions of plants each year.

We are licensed to propagate all of the University of Florida’s patented releases which supply commercial growers from all over the country with quality plants.

With nearly 20 years of experience in blueberry propagation and a knowledgeable and service oriented sales staff we can handle your needs.

sland Grove Ag Products originated in 1995 as a merger between two existing blueberry farms in north central Florida. The focus at that time was to produce quality blueberry plants and increase production in our own fields.

IGAP also participates in community functions in Hawthorne, our closest town. Most notably is the clean-up and recovery of the City Park at Lake Johnson in which we contributed labor, equipment and plant material for this clean-up and enhancement project. At the local high school, we donated and built a fruit orchard at the agricultural department hoping to inspire young adults to learn more about agriculture and fruit production. The orchard contains blueberries, blackberries, grapes, pears, peaches, plums and persimmons.
