Skillins Greenhouses is a true Maine tradition. Their fifth-generation Maine family business was founded in 1885 by Alexander “Pa” Skillin to provide seedlings and produce to the local area. The growth of Skillins over the years mirrored the growth of Falmouth and its surrounding community. After World War II, as Falmouth changed from fields and pastures into a town of fine homes, Skillins expanded into a landscaping, greenhouse, and floral business. Their additional locations in Brunswick and Cumberland along with their web site, make their selection of plants, gardening items and special gifts available to people all around Maine and the country.
Skillins Greenhouses produce many of their seasonal offerings themselves from colorful annuals to mums to poinsettias. Their vibrant Christmas trees, shrubs and evergreens are grown at their beautiful Mountainview Farm demonstrate their commitment to this Maine tradition.
A faithful supporter of the Maine School Garden Network, they are a Sponsor of the Month for the 2026 and the 2027 School Garden of the Month Calendar as well as a supporter of many of our events and programs. Thank you, Skillins!
