Our Story

A Nursery Built on
High Desert Soil

Eagle Cap Nursery sits on Mother Lode Road, just outside Baker City, where the high desert meets the foothills of the Wallowa Mountains. We started with a simple conviction: that gardeners in Eastern Oregon deserve access to quality plants that are actually suited to this climate — not just whatever shipped in from the coast.

Today, we carry a carefully selected inventory of trees, shrubs, perennials, and succulents chosen for their resilience and beauty in our region. Whether you're restoring a xeric garden, planting a shade canopy, or looking for the perfect specimen to anchor your front yard, we'll help you find it.
