About Us

The Kito family has been serving the Long Island community by providing quality landscape design and construction since the 1950's. A small family owned business, Kito Nursery boasts a staff with an average of 15 years of experience and service, where providing consistency of workmanship and unparalleled customer service is commonplace. We are proud of the fact that with the exception of swimming pool installation and asphalt driveways we do not employ subcontractors and all work is performed by our experienced staff.

We are a multifaceted company specializing in custom design, construction of specialty structures and poolhouses, custom masonry and carpentry, poolscapes, ponds, waterfalls, irrigation and plantings. Every job is designed to suit each customer's specific needs and budget. No project is too small to be taken for granted or too large to overwhelm us. Staff is attentive and focused on your needs and concerns at all times. Project timelines and projected completion dates are strictly adhered to whenever possible.

Design

We offer all phases of landscape design by our qualified staff; from scaled drawings and site development to sprinkler layouts and final planting guides. No job is too large or small with perennials gardens a special favorite. When in Port Jefferson Village you can watch the seasonal changes in the area near the clock tower that we donate to the Village. Further, many of our satisfied clients are more then willing to allow you to visit, with appropriate notice, should you need to see the finished project to a renovation that might be similar to yours.

Nursery

Our 8 acre site in Port Jefferson Station has been in the Kito family for over 100 years. Once the largest grower of rhododendron on Long Island, we now use this site for storage of equipment and plant material for landscape jobs. Although we do not have a retail yard you can use our links to enhance your project or shop for some items you can install yourself, but our long history in the nursery business ensures that your plants are well cared for prior to installation and arrive healthy and ready to flourish on your property.

Job Execution

Kito Nursery focuses on providing quality service and a high level of professionalism throughout the execution of the project; we are always careful to maintain your privacy, no matter how extensive the project. Our design staff and work crews transform your yard into a functional and beautiful space - your own private country club!

Pruning and Garden Care
