Come and join us on our flower field during the British growing season, where you can enjoy filling a bucket with beautiful seasonal flowers, lovingly grown and nurtured by us. Our flowers are very different from any that you'll find in the shops, with a diverse range of varieties as the seasons change.
In a small group, you will start your PYO experience with a short tour of the flower field. We will show you what is blooming best and how to harvest stems for the longest vase life. Then we will leave you to enjoy picking your bucket of flowers at your leisure. When you are happy with your selection, we will wrap your flowers for you to take home and arrange.
Picking your own flowers is a wonderful way to slow down, breath in the glorious scents of our blooms and be at one with nature. The perfect activity for one, to do with friends or loved ones.
We release PYO sessions throughout the year, so be sure to check back regularly for dates or subscribe to our newsletter to be the first to hear the latest flower farm news.
