After the retirement of Sandra from Marjorie's Greengrocers we would have all been forgiven in thinking it was an end of an era, and that the village had lost its independent fruit and veg shop forever.
To the surprise of many, the shop in Church Hill, Milford on Sea is not to just to reopen, but to reopen as a greengrocers, selling fruit & veg as well as flowers. As the new shop's leaflet says; 'The best is fresh'.
The new owner is Jane Fielding, and she plans to keep continuity with the past by trading under the original name of Marjorie's Greengrocers. Jane is not new to retail floristry and fruit & veg as she has a depth of experience in the trade. Her parents have also run a number of similar shops across the New Forest for many years. Jane will also be supported by her husband, sisters, and she hopes in time some local faces.
Jane is hoping to open this Saturday should all plans go well. We think it is great to see a new venture in the village and hope that they get the support they deserve.
Having chatted to Jane, she is very friendly, so why not pop in and give her a warm welcome to Milford on Sea, I am sure she would love to see you.
