We’re a garden centre in Mayfield Park in Southampton, and we aim to bring about positive change for people struggling with their mental health. Every penny we make from plant sales is ploughed back into helping people with mental health issues. We're a social enterprise and a subsiduary of Solent Mind.
We provide a place for people with mental health issues and learning disabilities to develop new skills and be part of a supportive, friendly community. Through our schedule of wellbeing groups and training programmes we empower people to make dramatic improvements in their mental health, confidence and self esteem. All our services are now taking place virtually.

We stock a full range of plants for your home and garden.
According to season, we have luscious bedding plants, hardy perennials, roses, climbers, herbs, seeds and bulbs, beautiful house plants to aid your wellbeing and many associated plants and products for sale. If you’re looking for something in particular, we may be able to order it for you.
There is a small, independent fruit and veg shop on site as well as craft and gift shops.
Our Sunflower Café is a perfect spot to unwind with coffee and cake after a stroll through the beautiful grounds of Mayfield Park – and dogs are welcome on leads! **Please note the Sunflower Café is currently closed**
Whatever you get out of your visit to Mayfield Nurseries, every penny you spend goes towards our vital services supporting people who live with mental health issues to live the best lives they can and to work towards recovery.
