Whispering Pines Garden Center

A new chapter for a beloved local nursery

Posted

Since 1956, Whispering Pines Garden Center has stood as a trusted, go-to destination for plant lovers, gardeners, and landscapers throughout Westchester County. Nestled on Route 6 near the border of Somers and Yorktown, this longtime nursery has cultivated generations of green thumbs with its six lush greenhouses, organic vegetables, colorful flowers, hardy shrubs, and knowledgeable team of certified nursery professionals.

Now, this storied nursery enters an exciting new chapter under the leadership of Chapman “Chappy” Manzer, a name well-known in the local landscaping scene. As the owner of Manzer’s Landscape Design and Development, a thriving company based in Peekskill since 2003, Chappy brings decades of experience, a strong work ethic, and a deep passion for plants and people to Whispering Pine.

A beloved figure in the community, Chappy has built his reputation by not only creating stunning landscapes across Westchester but also by giving back—donating time, materials, and services to local beautification projects. His business philosophy emphasizes environmentally responsible, sustainable practices, and that ethos will carry over to Whispering Pines as it continues to grow under his guidance.

Customers can rest assured that the nursery’s legacy of quality and service remains firmly intact. With Chappy at the helm, visitors can expect the same exceptional selection of indoor and outdoor plants, hanging baskets and flowers—along with expert advice and a fresh perspective from a leader who understands the evolving needs of homeowners.

Whispering Pines Garden Center may have new ownership, but its roots in the community remain strong. With Chappy leading the way, the future looks greener than ever.
