Our Path To Roses
NeuHouse Farms is a wholesale provider of several of the most popular roses on the market, such as the Knock Out and Drift series. Currently, we grow 6 million roses comprising over 270 varieties. We are a bare root rose grower for Star Rose and Plants, David Austin Roses, Certified Roses, and Weeks Roses. Besides our bare root roses we also produce rose tree and rose bushes. Our roses are delivered around the world, and we consistently deliver top grades on all varieties, with minimal cull percentages. Every operation we perform is with the intention of producing top-grade roses. NeuHouse Farms is nursery certified by the California Department of Food and Agriculture. We are constantly utilizing the latest and proven growing techniques and sustainable practices.
NeuHouse Farms was formed within the four-generation family farming partnership of Lester Neufeld & Son (LNS) which is owned by the Neufeld and Waterhouse families. Patriarch of the partnership, Jim Neufeld has lifelong experience in growing row and permanent crops in the area since the 1960s when he came back to work on the farm. Dan Waterhouse and Nancy Neufeld came to the farm as partners in the early 90’s and began diversifying and intensifying the crop production. In 2004 Dan’s father, Frank Waterhouse, who we have since lost to cancer, was an integral part of forming a new partnership under Lester Neufeld and Son named NeuHouse Farms, an arm of the business that is exclusively roses. Frank had a base of 20 plus years of knowledge working for Armstrong Roses, Jackson and Perkins, J and M, and Bickman Farms. The respect of his peers in the rosebush production and marketing industry was the catalyst for forming this rose business.
