Shield Green Nurseries has been recognized for its dedication and service in Hexham’s marketplace
Hexham: Shield Green Nurseries is a charming family-run business located near The Dipton Mill pub. They’ve been around since 1970, and it’s a real family affair with three generations involved.
Jim and Marjorie Robinson started it all, and now their daughter Kathleen and her husband Steven Dunn are at the helm, with their son Graeme also pitching in. It’s clear they love what they do.
Living in the area their whole lives, they’ve built a loyal customer base that keeps coming back. Their stall at the Hexham marketplace is a go-to spot for many.
They offer a fantastic selection of perennials, shrubs, and seasonal plants. It’s no wonder they were voted Trader of the Week by readers who appreciate their hard work, rain or shine.
People like Zoe Keen and Haley Stokoe have praised them for their dedication, showing up no matter the weather. It’s heartwarming to see such community support.
Besides plants, they also sell bird care products, eggs, and cut flowers, some of which they grow themselves. They even had a shop in Newcastle’s Green Market until 2000.
Steven shared how much they enjoy being part of the Hexham community. They love seeing familiar faces each week and welcoming visitors who stop by to buy a plant or two.
Feeling honored to be named Trader of the Week, they strive to be there every day for their customers, no matter the weather. They’re committed to being a reliable spot for locals and tourists alike.
Open from Tuesday to Saturday, Shield Green Nurseries is a staple in Hexham, and they’re grateful for the support they receive from their community.
