Our History
Grandma (Mary Pauline) and Grampa (Joseph) Giannino came over from Italy on separate boats. Joseph passed Mary on his way to work each day - the details are fuzzy, but eventually the two fell in love and got married. After they married, they built a house. Mary grew pansies and forget-me-nots in the garden, and gave the flowers away to friends and neighbors. Her bouquets grew in popularity and their small garden eventually bloomed into Giannino Greenhouses.
Joe's farther, Christy (short for Crescenzo Carlo Giannino) took over Giannino Greenhouses. The business flourished until he retired in 2007. His focus was always on running a clean business, working hard, and being honest - values he taught his children. Although Joseph Giannino Company is a separate endeavor than the original Giannino Greenhouses, we're built on a solid foundation of 3 generations in the industry.
