About

I'm a florist who has recently gone back to her roots. From running a busy Florists business in Brighton and London, I've turned my back on city life and relocated back to the rural Durham countryside to grow a flower farm.

I'm going to continue sustainable floristry by using traditional seasonal practices. No single use plastics or floral foam. I'll be providing Wedding flowers and Farewell flowers as well as lots of workshops and short courses.

Growing my own flowers I'll supply British Flowers in Season during Spring, Summer and Autumn and in Winter I use dried flowers and small numbers of sustainable imports.

Until the 1970's we grew our own flowers in the UK now we fly them in. The majority of the UK's flowers are grown in Holland and Africa. Crazy isn't it? Buying local flowers means less airmiles and because they are not refrigerated the smell like flowers!
