23rd Sept 2021
The 23rd September is our Macmillan Coffee Morning Day. We look forward to beating out last Coffee Morning amount raised of £450.00. We have lots of things for you to buy to raise money and a raffle with 10 prizes If you can donate to help fight cancer, please use the QR code shown on the right further down this page. Opening times for the Nursery and Tearoom are Tuesday to Sunday incl 10.30am to 4.30pm, but Sunday closing at 4pm. Mondays closed, bar Bank Holidays. Please note the new car park gate arrangements in preparation for long planned work. The original entrance gate near the fork into the Nursery has been replaced and will become the point of entry to a larger car park. Please understand that if you drive in when we are closed, you will have to reverse back from that gate. We have put up signs at the front showing opening hours A new delivery of shrubs has also arrived, along with over 1,200 perennials. This is exciting for us, and we hope also for our customers. Cold nights and a low soil temperature is holding back plant growth, roll on mid May when warmer weather is forecast. As now is usual, social distancing must be observed while at the Nursery. Hands, space, face and fresh air !! Please note the sign at the Nursery entrance. Until 8th March we are carrying out roadway and carpark repairs. The usual Nursery entrance is blocked, please bear to the right and enter by the carpark exit road. Please do not let your car block our residents access road. New workshop sessions are planned for the Tearoom from Summer onwards. News of this later. We have lots of exciting improvements under planning this year for the Tearoom and Nursery, while keeping our essential gentle air of dilapidation. It takes a lot of work to keep it that way :) Watch out for more news of this. |
These are a few pictures of our Nursery and the types of plants we sell. After much restoration work we managed to open our revamped shrubbery late 2019. The pathways are now starting to settle in and look established.
The small pond by the bird feeders has now been restored to show the lovely large ironstone boulders that were set around it. As always the numerous birds to the feeders provide many customers an entrancing time watching them while having tea and cakes.

We are pleased to continue our relationship with the Potten End Garden Club. We will look at what we can do together to help reduce the feeling of isolation though gardening initiatives and veggie growing.
So that we can process and grow on a greater level of plant stock, during 2021 our focus continues to be completing the huge task of re-establishing and increasing the greenhouse, tunnels and other areas and facilities used to prepare and nurture plants prior to sale. When we started this July 2018, we expected it to be a 3 year project. We look forward to building up the Nursery stock, display features and events during 2021 and beyond to give our customers the special magic of Little Heath Farm Nursery.
