We were all so thrilled to receive one of these each this week from the lovely Mike and Nadine to celebrate this amazing garden we were privileged to be a part of.
Such a special momento we are so chuffed 🙏 thank you so much from me, Ruth and Jane.
Can’t wait for the next one! 😉

Perfectly imperfect…. This is our last flower of the year, and it sums up our last year pretty well.
We’ve had to scale back a lot this year, which was the opposite of our plans for year four. But life throws you curve balls and we all know about those don’t we.
We’ve been dealing with bereavement and personal loss and facing up to losing our flower farm. We’ve felt very lucky to have each other to navigate this challenging time and also grateful to our families, friends and Instagram community for being there for us too. Thank you to all our fellow flower farmers for checking in on us and being such a support. We love this community of strong women.

We’ve missed our wonderful workshops and but we’ve also pushed on through and fulfilled some beautiful weddings! Thank you to all our brides and grooms this year. You’ve all been so amazing to work with and shared our vision for wild wonderful British flowers and sustainable floristry. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Thanks also to all our wonderful customers and brilliant florists who have supported us this year.
It’s great to share our joy of flowers with you all.

We might be down but we’re far from out…this is not the end of Meadow Cut Flowers , just a new beginning. Watch this space!

Lots of love Shirley and Ruth.

Yesterday we had the lovely job of providing floral arrangements for 95 years young ladies birthday bash. All the flowers and foliage grown here on the farm. Bitter sweet moment as the last event of our flower season this year.
This year has been full of challenges for our business but we hope to be going onwards and upwards next year with all the love and energy we naturally bring to this flowery life. We love what we do and we think it shows.

We loved making your spectacular bouquet Nyah and we send you and Victor our huge congratulations on your wedding. Xx

Thanks so much to Emma and James for sharing these great photos of their wedding last week. The brief was wild with citrusy, zingy colours. These colours were amazing to work with and everything really popped!
Thanks to their photographer for letting us share these photos.

We love supplying our local florists with seasonal British flowers. Hats off to all the florists who are discovering the joys of locally sourced flowers.
Fresh as they come and beautifully scented. New things to work with in your designs are always a joy. Hope you enjoy working your magic on these Esther

Two weeks ago we did the wedding flowers for the lovely Geo and Seb. It’s always lovely to be sent some of the official photos and these taken by the very talented are so beautiful. Thanks so much for letting us share them.

For our friends today. The skies may be cloudy but the flowers are bright.
We have a few big events in the next couple of weeks. But after that we will have dahlias for all. If you’d like from August just message us and we can sort. Flowers=weekend=joy
Love Shirley and Ruth.

We had such a fun weekend with team Green JJam Nurseries at Hampton Court Flower Show. Gorgeous plants and an incredible display. If you’re going to the show check them out in the floral marquee. Good luck Jules and Adam. Xx

Ranunculus are pretty much over now that there’s some heat in the sun. Always sad to see them go. Looking forward to the dahlias now!

The first of the Copper Boys this year. Love this dahlia. We can’t wait for more.

It’s British flowers week and we are picking these beauties at the moment.
But the fun of using British flowers is that we have new things coming into season all the time while others go over. These are the result of our last planting of ranunculus back in March. Latest we’ve ever planted them and it was a gamble. The other earlier sowings were eaten by some unknown apex predator (probably a rabbit but as yet no proof).
But we’re glad we tried again as these are so worth it. They’ll produce for maybe another week or ten days then we’ll be onto the next thing. Enjoy them while they last!

Flowers enhancing the art today.
Especially for our friend who is running a yoga retreat here this weekend. Wish we were joining you for this weekend of sheer yoga bliss in this gorgeous location. 🙏. Namaste to you all and hope you enjoy our flowers. .

Well that was a surprise. Can’t believe how beautiful natures fireworks were last night. Subtle and quiet and moving gently across the sky in sheets off rose and green. We got quite emotional watching it.
Chance of it again tonight I think so check your weather if you missed it and get out there if you can.
