About Us - History of the Garden Centre
Below shows a timeline of how our family garden centre has grown over the years
1950's - The Beginning
Frank Dallimore purchased the land on which the garden centre is now built.
1960's - The Growing Starts
Father and Son (Frank and Colin Dallimore) started to grow a large selection of vegetables, which initially they sold form their garage. Then later they built a small shop in which to sell their produce.
1970's - Mark Arrives
Mark arrived and is still working with us today! 40 years next year…
1980's - Changes
As the sales of vegetables decreased (due to supermarkets) Free range chickens were introduced, and started to grow some of the first bedding plants, which then changed into a nursery.
2016 - New Shop & Coffee Shop
In 2016 the new shop & coffee shop was built which is our current building today.
