Growing Trees in the Virginia Piedmont
At Overstory Farms, we grow shade and ornamental trees in the fertile soils of central Virginia, with a focus on strong structure, healthy growth, and long-term landscape performance. Our species are carefully selected for their resilience, adaptability, and lasting beauty.
About Us
Grown Through The Eyes of a Contractor
For 28 years, we’ve built commercial landscapes from plans prepared by leading landscape architects. We’ve sourced thousands of trees, worked through submittals and substitutions, and have seen firsthand which species, forms, and qualities consistently meet design intent. Today, we grow trees informed by that experience—trees selected and cultivated with the needs of landscape architects, contractors, and owners in mind.
Our Trees

Overstory Farms grows a select collection of shade and ornamental trees chosen for their beauty, adaptability, and long-term performance in the landscape. From stately shade trees to flowering ornamentals, our inventory is cultivated with a focus on strong structure, healthy growth, and consistent quality. We grow trees that are not only visually appealing at installation, but that continue to thrive and mature for decades to come. Our offerings include a carefully selected palette of Red Maple, Sugar Maple, River Birch, London Planetree, White Oak, Honeylocust, Ginkgo, Elm, Okame and Kwanzan Cherry, and Ivory Silk Lilac.
