Sowing, arranging & styling the cutting garden in May 

Join WLFC, photographer and stylist Janne Ford and floral designer Leigh Chappell to immerse yourself in the floral inspiration of the cutting garden in May.

The day will begin with refreshments and a tour of WLFC’s micro flower farm and glasshouses learning how we have grown our business and focused on environmental growing practices since we sowed our first seeds in 2017. We’ll spend a hands on morning sowing half hardy seeds together, talk seasonality, top tips for harvesting flowers and and then observe how Leigh selects her ingredients and creates a hand tied bouquet using seasonal blooms cut from our cutting garden. 

Following a simple, seasonal lunch we’ll spend the afternoon making bouquets and learning the key techniques from Janne on how to style and photograph your work for your own portfolio. 

Every participant will leave with a tray of seeds, their seasonal bouquet finished with a botanically dyed ribbon from The Natural Dyeworks and photographs to use in their own portfolio in the future.        

The day is open to all flower lovers, florists, gardeners and stylists.

If unable to proceed due to Covid-19 we are happy to refund or transfer your booking to another day
