Green Garden Spaces Garden Center Stokeley Farm Shop

Green Garden Spaces

Opened in March 2023, Green Garden Spaces is an independent business on the site of Stokeley Farm Shop, Stokenham, Devon. Run by husband and wife team, Emma and Jonathan Hutchinson who have run a seperate gardening business in the area for the last 18 years.

The garden centre offers an extensive range of plants that are beautiful, reliable and often unusual varieties. Using local suppliers where ever possible means that the plants are great quality and reasonably priced. The garden centre shop, housed in a converted shipping container, has a plethora of garden seeds, tools and gifts as well as a great range of wildlife essentials such as bird boxes, feeders and food. The recent additions of British grown houseplants by The Little Botanical and prestigious roses from David Austin Roses completes the range.
