At Jost Greenhouses, we believe that lasting beauty should go hand in hand with environmental responsibility. We’re driven by a commitment to enhance the places where people live and work—creating green spaces that are both functional and inspiring. That’s why we’ve partnered with LiveRoof®—a system and a company that shares our values of integrity, professionalism, and decades-long leadership in the green roof industry.
Operating as LiveRoof Midwest, we serve Southern Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Missouri, and Nebraska. Jost Greenhouses is a family-owned and operated business established in 1984. Our headquarters in Des Peres, Missouri—just 20 minutes from downtown St. Louis—includes two acres with 24,000 square feet of greenhouse production and outdoor LiveRoof® production. We also maintain a secondary facility in Chesterfield, Missouri, where we grow perennials, ornamental grasses, native species, and seasonal plants.
With roots in green roofing dating back to the early 2000s, the Jost family brings deep expertise as both growers and early adopters of living roof systems. Today, we continue to support sustainable urban landscapes by cultivating regionally adapted plants and delivering proven LiveRoof® solutions across the region.
