Cut Flower Garden Workshop
Growing and Arranging Cut Flowers
There is nothing like going out into the garden and picking flowers for your home, whether it's a vase of scented sweet peas or a beautifully arranged bouquet of summer annuals.
​
This workshop will bring you from 'seed to vase' and is suitable for anyone who would like to learn about growing, harvesting and arranging flowers for their own home, it is also for people who don't have the time, the space, or the mobility for a normal garden but would like to garden on a very small scale. A raised bed as small as 4' x 4' will work.
The process of sowing seed to arranging your flowers will bring you lots of joy and connect you with nature.
