Whether you’re a plant newbie, a seasoned green thumb, are looking for the perfect gift, or are eager to get your hands dirty, Peterborough’s Tiny Greens Plant Shop has all the solutions to get you rooted in the plant world.
Opened in 2017 in downtown Peterborough by Tina Bromley, Tiny Greens has everything you need to bring your space to life, from tabletop plants to larger plants and small trees, decorative pots and planting kits, and growing supplies and accessories.
With new plants coming in weekly and an ever-changing inventory, Tiny Greens is well known for stocking hundreds of small and affordable succulents, alongside other common plants like air plants, pothos, and hoyas. Plant lovers can even find some of the rarest species, like the Thai constellation monsteras, pitcher plants, and beginner bonsai.
For those new to the plant world, the experienced staff at Tiny Greens know exactly which plants will bring life to your home — and which ones you’ll have no problem keeping alive.
However, Tiny Greens is so much more than just a place to buy plants. A journey inside the shop is an experience on its own, with creative, fun pots scattered throughout the store. Drop in for daily access to the planting studio where you can browse the decoration bar to create your own masterpiece using a variety of moss, stones, and sands.
The Tiny Greens planting studio can also be booked for team-building socials and celebrations, while regularly scheduled workshops give participants a chance to be guided by staff in their creations.

To meet a need she saw in the community when donating to many organizations over the years, Bromley recently launched the shop’s Plants for Impact fundraising model, where schools, not-for-profits, clubs, sports teams, and other community groups can launch a customizable fundraiser focused on self-care and healthy living.
Organizations can partner with Tiny Greens for an easy-to-promote in-store shopping event, day or night, for their initiative. Bromley will donate a portion of the sale proceeds from the event, as well as from regular walk-in traffic, to maximize the potential of the fundraiser.
Further spreading the love for the community, Tiny Greens is offering kawarthaNOW readers a special discount of 20 per cent until November 12 as a thank-you for supporting local. When shopping in the store, just let staff know you read about Tiny Greens in kawarthaNOW to receive the discount. If you’re shopping online, use the code KAWARTHALOCALS20%OFF.
Located at 431 George Street North in downtown Peterborough, Tiny Greens Plant Shop is open from 10:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Sunday.
Tiny Greens is booking holidays parties now, with fundraising dates still available for the winter (or you can book ahead for 2025). While drop-ins to the planting studio are always welcome if space permits, Bromley recommends booking a table in advance by emailing orders@tinygreens.ca, calling 705-874-7554, or making a reservation online at www.tinygreens.ca, where you can also browse and purchase products from the shop’s extensive inventory.
