About RIverview
Riverview Nursery & Garden Center was founded by Donald A. Haas in 1973, and has grown to be one of Berks County’s largest and most respected garden center, nursery and landscaping companies.

Serving Berks Since 1973
Our Nursery & Garden Center is located on 18 acres in Temple, outside Reading in Berks County, Pennsylvania, and has been serving its customers since 1973 with the freshest and healthiest plants, trees, shrubs, fruit trees, indoor plants, gardening supplies, and so much more.
In 1995, Donald Haas’ daughter, Diane Salks, took over the business, making Riverview a 100% woman-owned business. Riverview Nursery & Garden Center is a division of Riverview Tree & Landscaping, Inc.
