Wheaton's

Furniture that gives your home enduring beauty and charm, inspiring you to create a space you gladly call home. Welcome to Wheaton's. Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. In 1981, Garnet Wheaton began growing balsam fir trees in Berwick, Nova Scotia. To help cover the costs of their children’s orthodontist bills, Garnet’s wife, Kay Wheaton, started selling decorator tins and her own handcrafted gift items out of their home. Soon, their first cash register was needed, and placed on top of the family’s washer and dryer. The Wheaton’s quickly found themselves in need of more space. Garnet began renovating their barn into a unique country store, which would be the original Berwick location. The barn was officially opened for business in September 1990 and four years later, an addition was added. What had started out as a little store was certainly expanding rapidly! “We hope you and your family continue to enjoy your Wheaton’s experiences and enjoyed learning about our story! Although we started out small, we have been blessed with so much over the years! It’s amazing how many great people we’ve been able to work with. Today, you can find Garnet and I helping in the stores or lunching at the café!” – Kay Wheaton
