Olivers Nurseries

Olivers Nurseries is a family-run garden centre on Maldon Road in Witham, combining a plant nursery with a tea room on one site. The nursery stocks bedding plants, shrubs and trees alongside outdoor furniture, barbecues, homeware and gifts, and a plant-finder tool helps customers track down specific varieties in stock. The site has a large free car park with disabled parking, wheelchairs available for loan, and a dog walking field; dogs are welcome on leads around the grounds and in the tea room garden, though not indoors. The tea room serves breakfasts, lunches and cakes with its own phone line separate from the main garden centre desk, and hours extend over bank holidays. The business trades from a single Witham site rather than as part of a multi-branch garden centre group, and its combination of nursery stock and café trade draws both dedicated gardeners and casual visitors passing on the Maldon road out of town.
