We’re still ploughing on in the Peony field with a (very overdue!) clear up. This is best tackled in mid/late October for obvious reasons but sometimes life intervenes!

Podcasts like make this laborious task a little less overwhelming and the company of my partner in crime, Mr Davies, is always welcome. Onwards!

Peony planting: The sequel!

This year we have a mere 300 bare roots to get in the ground which feels positively miniscule compared with the herculean task of 2,300 last year!

This year’s babies are Coral Charm, a very long-stemmed (Hello Florists!) coral-coloured variety that’ll knock your socks off.

Ready for harvesting in 2028, these beauties will be worth the wait ❤️

And the first phase of PYO prep has been completed 🥳

A huge thank you to my wonderful husband who has dug and bulldozed (!) his way around the site, levelling and evening out all the many lumps and bumps.

Now for lots of planning, mulching, dreaming and hoping…

Preparations of the PYO are well and truly underway 😎
The sun has shone mercifully on our backs this week and last.

Beneath the layers of grass, stone and rubble is Red Gold. Everything comes from the soil. Everything. And ours is blessed; rich, terracotta, crumbly loam. Heaven.

PYO progress! 🥳

We’re rapidly clearing the ground, removing decades worth of rubble and spoil.

The site is so much bigger than I anticipated which is both exciting and daunting in equal measure. We haven’t even extended into the field yet…! 😆

The sunshine has danced on iridescent leaves, the nearby river Yscir has gurgled contentedly as we’ve worked and clawed back workable land from scrub. The soil glows red and inviting; beckoning life and promise.

❄️ Our first frost here overnight at River Meadow ❄️

It’s not especially unusual to have such an early frost here in the valley floor. The chill rolls down our steep-sided hills to find rest in the still colourful beds of River Meadow.

Just 24 hours can reduce bright vermilion, star-bright yellow and fire-tinged orange to dull and hushed oblivion.

There will be many wintry delights taking place at River Meadow next year but for now it’s ‘Thank you’ for your unerring support and sideline cheering for this year 🙏🏻

I will still be very much reachable (and bookable!) for next year’s DIY weddings and I’ll soon be advertising 2026’s flower subscription offer and (New!) gift vouchers will also be available to purchase 💐🥳

Just a few short days ago and what a difference!

The Dahlias are still productive although they’ve been under the cosh thanks to the high winds!

They have been truly resplendent this year 😍 Next year there will be MANY more (we have big plans for Dahlias!) and of course they will make a welcome appearance in our PYO site. Watch this space!

Early September flowers are just gorgeous, aren’t they?!

The DIY wedding buckets are brimming with Dahlias, Scabious, Cornflowers, Phlox and so much more!

Watch this space for big changes afoot on my website and for the farm in 2026! There are lots of plans in the offing and there will be A LOT more flowers next year…!

Let’s talk DIY wedding buckets:

✨ How much do you get in a bucket?

- Around 50-55 stems

✨ How much are they?

- £65 per bucket

✨ How many different things can you do with 1 x bucket of flowers?

- It depends. 1 x bucket would make you 1 x lovely, full-looking Bridal Bouquet. Equally, from one bucket you could make 2 x Bridesmaid Bouquets. Or you could make around 3 x small jam jar posies or fill around 50 bud vases. Lots of possibilities!

✨ I like the idea of decorating my own venue but I’m too scared to create Bridal Party bouquets!

- No problem! I still offer all Bridal Party floristry so relax in the knowledge that all of that is covered. Just have fun with the buckets and let your imagination run wild!

✨ I still need a bit of guidance to make arrangements!

- No problem! You can arrange a floral masterclass with me at the farm where I’ll walk you through the basics: Urn arrangements, milk churns, jam jar posies and bouquets 💐

✨ Sounds wonderful! How do I book/enquire?

- Email [email protected] to discuss availability, prices and colour schemes

✨ Now taking bookings for 2026!

River Meadow’s August flowers are pretty spectacular 😍

✨ By supporting your local flower farmer, you are helping a small, SUSTAINABLE and truly LOCAL business to survive and thrive.

✨ You can be sure that whoever works on a British flower farm is PROTECTED by employment law and health & safety legislation

✨ Your flowers will be days FRESHER than those imported from abroad

✨ You will be able to enjoy SEASONAL delights! No two bouquets I produce are ever the same. Each week the flowers change depending on what’s looking great on the plot at that time

✨ You will be able to enjoy the most GLORIOUS blooms that this country and our fertile soil has to offer

✨ It’s time to back BRITISH 🇬🇧

Let’s talk DIY Wedding Flowers…

⭐️ What are they?

- Curated mixed buckets of flowers & foliage (tell me your colour scheme and I’ll work to it)

- Collect these buckets of gorgeousness from me and decorate your venue yourself

⭐️ Why are DIY wedding flowers so great?

- Because they are a very affordable alternative to traditional wedding flowers where you’re paying a professional to decorate your wedding venue and do time-consuming (and expensive) floristry

- They allow you and your bridal party to flex your creative muscles and be so PROUD of what you’ve created for your big day

⭐️ Can you give me a masterclass?

Yes! For an extra charge, I’ll be offering a floristry masterclass to all my DIY brides 🫶🏻 You’ll go away feeling confident that you can make simple jam jar and bud vase arrangements.

⭐️ Do you still offer any wedding floristry?

Yes! Alongside DIY flowers I’ll still be offering the following:

💐Bridal Bouquet
💐Bridesmaid Bouquet
💐Flower Girl Posy
💐Buttonhole

DIY wedding flowers are fun, save you money and let you have more creative control over your wedding 🫶🏻

Now taking bookings for 2026…

❤️ Chele & Tom ❤️

On the hottest day of the year (maybe the hottest day ever?! 🥵) I had the privilege of flowering the wedding of my sister-in-law and brother-in-law.

A beautiful day and a beautiful location, all perfectly captured by

The brief was simple: Colour and Sunflowers!

Thank you to my lovely friends and for a bit of extra pizzazz 🫶🏻
