We are delighted to confirm that Darwin Nurseries and Farm Shop will re-open on Monday, 8 September and look forward to welcoming back our loyal customers and visitors.

Darwin Nurseries is primarily a service for the training and support of adults with learning disabilities and those with mental health challenges, it has also become an integral and valued part of the local community.  

During the recent temporary closure, we undertook a review of the service to ensure we continue to provide the very best support for our co-workers while also carrying out essential maintenance and improvement works.  

We are very grateful to our co-workers, our staff and volunteers for their understanding during this time, and our heartfelt thanks go to the local community, our customers, and our suppliers for their ongoing support.
