We are an independantly run garden centre with thousands of outdoor, garden and gift items. We have been operating since 1929 and were one of the first garden centres to open in this country. It is a 2 1/2 acre site with a large outdoor plant area, indoor covered area for furniture, BBQ's and garden products and a large gift department and cafe. Martin, our Plants Manager, is a seasoned plantsman of very high regard giving lectures to prestigious groups and winning regularly at shows with his organically grown produce.
In 1919 an Essex Countryman and Gardener set up a nursery in rented ground in the heart of Grays. His name was Ernest Smith and together with his brother he built the business into a thriving concern growing vegetables for the London markets and serving the horticultural needs of the local community. By 1930 he had done so well that he bought a plot of land in Chadwell Road on the outskirts of the town to which he transferred the nursery business. He was now joined by his son Edward Smith and the nursery continued to grow and prosper, growing mainly bedding plants, vegetables and cut flowers.
New season vegetables as far as the eye can see! We have brussels sprout, broccolis, cabbages, spinach, beetroot and many more.
