Welcome

There's something magical in the soil. Strong roots have a way of pulling it out. They create shimmering leaves, delicate petals, and inviting green hideaways. Since 1917 we've specialized in these transformations - coaxing open spaces to become vibrant gardens, and barren patches of earth to grow into dreamlike retreats.

Come experience the magic at Chalet:
Monday - Friday - 9:30am - 5:30pm
Saturday - 9:30am - 5:30pm
Sunday  - 10:00am - 5:00pm

Chalet

Celebrate LifeAt Chalet we believe nothing is more beautiful than nature. That a yard can be a work of art. That food from one's own garden can nourish the body and soul. We're Chalet, and for over 90 years, we've been more than a garden center or landscaping service. We've been passionate about what we do.

That passion manifests itself in our commitment to you. At Chalet, it will always be about someone listening. Someone who will create a border treatment that will instill (just a little) envy in the neighbors. Someone who heard you say lavender, not purple, lilacs. Someone who understands it's always about your dreams and then goes one better.

It's a connection that goes beyond your purchase and becomes, very often, a lifelong relationship.

That's because we employ the best. Chalet has more Illinois Certified Nursery Professionals than anyone else. We also feature teams of skilled landscape architects, designers, and maintenance technicians. We understand we are improving your investment as well as your quality of life. We're dedicated to making the outdoors as rewarding for you as it has been for us.
