Our company founder, Cliff “grandpa” Gearhart, at a young age began harvesting and selling wild trees during the Great Depression.
Grandpa’s love of trees continued and he was one of the very first to plant Christmas trees in Michigan and was also one of the first to grow fraser fir and douglas fir trees.
Over the years his business grew and developed into a multi-generational company rooted in values and family traditions. North Star now has a nearly 1,000 acres which is used for growing trees and nursery stock.
North Star has been a trusted name for over 80 years. We are a third generation, family owned and operated company that sets high standards so our customers receive the best service possible.
When you visit one of our locations or you have us landscape your property, you can expect to be treated with honesty, integrity and respect.
