Mill End Nursery is an established family business that grows plants for the wholesale and retail trade. Spread over six acres, the nursery produces an extensive range of bedding, perennials and shrubs that are particularly suited to the growing conditions of the locality.

    These can be seen, set out in the many tunnels and open beds, throughout the whole year, by visitors to the nursery and is a joy to behold for the dedicated gardeners and also those new to gardening.

    From April to June we make up to two thousand baskets for both trade and retail customers. We supply the Hotel and Pub trade as well as our loyal customers who come back year after year.

    All the basket and bedding plants are grown on site where we eagerly look forward to the summer season and the new varieties of plants that the season brings.

We also give demonstrations and talks locally and occasional workshops on site on planting baskets and containers. Our nominated charity this year that will receive the fees/donations from the talks and evening visits that take place is Hertfordshire Air Ambulance.

Visiting Gardening Clubs are always welcome at the Nursery during the week days and evenings by arrangement only please. This is so that we can offer our guests a complimentary tea and homemade cake during their visit. Since building our home here, we have planted our gardens for the enjoyment of both ourselves and our visitors. There are seven to stroll through including our raised vegetable garden.

As the interest in growing vegetables has increased, we are growing and supplying vegetable plants in packs/pots. Of course, many of the vegetables that we sell can also be seen growing in our own garden.
