Really enjoyed Saturday's 'Pimped Up Pumpkins' workshop - we had a lovely group of ladies and gent joining us and it was great to see their creativity unleashed crafting some fabulous trios of pumpkins with our sustainably homegrown, pesticide free dried flowers and foliage.
A big thank you to the lovely Laura and Jayne for helping me out - you are both absolute diamonds π and I'm so lucky to have you as friends β€οΈ
We are back at St Alban's on Saturday 30 November for Christmas/Winter wreath making if you'd like to join us at 6-8 pm with free parking right outside π

Mini-vases with an airy, wilder meadow type vibe filled with smaller headed flowers and grasses for a lovely couple's engagement party recently at the Barn at The Cadeby Pub and Restaurant, Doncaster. It is a long time since I've been to Cadeby and it is gorgeous there, I am going to have to return soon and treat myself to a meal out!
Congratulations L & J and our best wishes to you both for a long and happy life together π

It's world bee day today and to celebrate here's a big and beautiful Queen red tailed bumblebee on some gorgeously scented sweet rocket. You can spot she's a Queen by her colouring and how big she is - just under 2.5 cm, the worker bees are about half that size. She will have a nest underground somewhere, probably under the old wall, I'll have to keep a look out!
Bees and other pollinators are declining rapidly and need all the help they can get from us ... And we need them for our own survival too so please help save them. This is one of the reasons we don't use pesticides and weedkillers on the farm and you can see the difference this makes all around π

I'm afraid the pop up at the gate is closed today but we will be back open late morning to early evening tomorrow (Sat) and Sun or you can message call us to order.
In the meantime here's the ducklings from the school hatch project this year now - don't they grow up quick!
Way back in November, when we set up our stall for a Christmas market, we had a chance meeting, a chat about wreaths, dried flowers, flower farming and bees with a customer. Unbeknown to us at the time, this was Ben, one of Wolfgang Buttress' team and after a couple more meetings, this led on to the opportunity of a lifetime with a large, bespoke order of dried products that now form part of an amazing exhibition - Bees: a story of survival at the World Museum in Liverpool.
We have been invited to the Private View/world premiere later this week and can't wait to share the pictures with you!
It opens to the public soon - tickets available via the World Museum's website

Open today until early eve at the gate again today.... And here's a progress update on the ducklings - don't they grow up quick! All the fluff is nearly gone and their adult feathers are coming through already ... We're just starting to introduce them to last year's boys and figure out how many girls and boys we have - may need to buy in some extra females!
Easter/Spring themed workshop.....please message or call us to book.
One stroke pot painting (and planting) coming soon!
We were inspected yesterday by RMBC and I'm pleased to say we were awarded a 5 star food hygiene rating so you'll now be able to enjoy some delicious, freshly homemade cakes made with natural ingredients at all our workshops and the PYO weekends we'll be having in the summer π
Happy Valentine's/Galantine's Day to you all. We're celebrating sustainably with a planted heart wreath .... And we'll have more workshops coming up for Mother's day, spring and Easter soon β€οΈ
