In 1934, Westfield Perennial Garden was opened on Westfield-Sherman Road in Westfield, New York. Owners, Roy R. and Frances M. Bentley moved their family and business to West Main Road in 1935. The name was then changed to Westfield Nursery and Garden Shop. The first garden shop customer was Millie Crandall, and the first landscaping customer, Carl Shear, came along a year or two later.

Charles and Nancy (Bentley) Hanks took over the business in 1981 and purchased their first dump truck in 1984, which is still being used today.

Today, the company is owned and operated by Scott and Laurie Robbins, who purchased Westfield Nursery and Garden Shop in 1991.  The company is now known as Westfield Nursery, Inc. and is operated with the same quality of knowledge and service which began with Mr. and Mrs. Bentley in the early 1930's.
