The site had previously been used for growing salad crops like tomatoes and peppers but was in poor condition with dilapidated Victorian glasshouses which were demolished to create space for the outside sales area. Marilyn decides to retire with son-in-law Robert Mason joining the partnership after a career in journalism.
Robert takes the decision to modernise and expand the business, and sets about building a purpose-built shop. The new shop opens in January followed by the tearoom a few months later, run by Howard and Marilyn's daughter Samantha. Sturmer Nurseries is a family-run independent garden centre which can trace its origins back to the Sixties.

We grow a lot of our own plants as well as buying predominantly from local East Anglia suppliers. We have a wealth of experience and knowledge about plants and gardening in the local area - and we are always happy to give advice.

A lovely nursery, with a very helpful, down to earth approach. Robert and the team offer well cared for plants and they are always friendly (the team not the plants). The prices are reasonable for the quality and, over a number of years, they have been investing in improving the experience for all of us to enjoy. It gets better every year, and it's a treat to visit regularly again. Can't wait till it's safe to have something in the cafe again too.
