Accessible Customer Service Plan

Vandermeer Nursery is committed to excellence in serving all customers including people with disabilities. We currently have a rolling (4-wheeled) walker with a seat available that may be used by customers with disabilities while shopping at Vandermeer Nursery. We will ensure that our staff are trained and familiar with this device. Please ask a staff member if you wish to use the rolling walker. If a customer requires a support person, fees will not be charged for the support person for events or consultations.

Our store is pet-friendly! Service animals and furry companions are welcome on all parts of our premises that are open to the public, on a leash that is maximum 4 feet long.
