The Nursery

In Canneto sull’Oglio, we grow ornamental and mature trees both in the open field and in containers, in an area where nursery production is part of the local culture, working tradition and everyday responsibility. Every stage of our work reflects our approach to professional nursery production.

Where quality takes shape.

The TECNOVIVAI nursery was established in Bizzolano, within the municipality of Canneto sull’Oglio. This is more than an address: it is the setting in which the Zecchina family grew, where a practical approach to work developed and where every production decision continues to be shaped by soil, water, the seasons and responsibility.

Our nursery was founded in an area where farming, cultivation and plant care are part of everyday culture.

Our local area

In Canneto sull'Oglio,
at the heart of a nursery-growing district.

Our nursery has developed in an area where growing plants is not simply another activity: it is part of the landscape, agricultural history and local working culture.

The value of a nursery begins with the place where its plants are grown.

Strategic location

Between the River Oglio and the Lombardy countryside, in the heart of an established nursery-growing district.

Fertile soils

Deep, well-drained soils, ideal for strong root development and high-quality plants.

Water and microclimate

Reliable water availability and a temperate climate support balanced growth.

Nursery-growing tradition

An area that has long cultivated expertise, experience and innovation.

Our history

A farming story
that continues in the nursery.

In the 1980s, Felice and Pieremilio Zecchina planted the first rows of trees in Bizzolano. That was the beginning of TECNOVIVAI.

Today, Stefano and Simone continue this legacy with passion, combining family experience, innovation and a strong focus on the future.

Our innovation does not erase our roots: it makes them stronger.

Two growing systems,
one shared standard of quality.

Field-grown and container-grown production work side by side to meet different requirements for plant development, planning and service.

Field-grown

Field production requires the right timing, skilled pruning, observation and careful selection. It is a growing system shaped by the seasons, the strength of the soil and the ability to manage each tree throughout its development.

Root establishment, structure and presence.

Container-grown

Container production is one of the nursery’s most advanced strengths. It provides greater flexibility, wider seasonal availability and continuity of supply for landscaping sites, projects and planned orders.

Flexibility, service and continuity.

Every area has a specific function, with one objective: quality.

Production fields

Where trees develop their structure, stem, crown and root system.

Container production area

Availability, planning and continuity of supply for projects and specific requirements.

Irrigation and water management

Technology and control enable us to use water efficiently and responsibly.

Selection

Every plant is selected for its shape, vigour and suitability for its final destination.

Order preparation

Inspection, wrapping and careful organisation for timely deliveries and plants in excellent condition.

Loading and logistics

Plant protection and coordinated logistics through to delivery to the customer.

Practical sustainability

Sustainability you can see every day

At TECNOVIVAI, sustainability is not a generic message. It is built into operational decisions: more efficient irrigation, more responsible growing media, beneficial soil microorganisms, advanced containers and a gradual transition towards organic production.

These choices improve the way we grow, reduce environmental impact and strengthen plant quality. The nursery is where sustainability, innovation and service come together.

TECNOVIVAI materials describe this sustainable journey through micro-drip irrigation, water savings of up to 30%, coconut coir, selected microorganisms, Bee Safe, Infinity Green pots and the Bioagricert certification process launched in 2025.

Where the future of the nursery takes root

A visit is not only about seeing the plants. It is about understanding how we work.
