Flower Farming for Beginners

Georgie teaches Flower Farming for Beginners

Spend a day with Georgie teaching the flower farming year: tricks, tips, planting lists: pest control, balance, contingency planning. Do you NEED a poly tunnel? An introduction to what it takes to farm flowers on however small a scale.

- designing & building a commercially useful cut flower patch
- what to grow and when
- keeping your season flowering all year round
- feeding a hungry patch for optimum results
- planning for cutting for weddings etc and every day bouquets
- conditioning home grown flowers and wildflowers for cutting
- a useful reading list and supplier lists
and those niggly questions: organic or not? peat free or not? do you need a polytunnel?

The price is £150 per person including lunch. We keep the group really small so that everybody gets a really good chance to find out what they specifically want to know and cover information for their particular patch.
