We are in the final stage of transitioning off Riverdale Farm.
I have changed my instagram handle to .design
In time, my website will move to a new address.
You can expect garden and floral design inspiration as we renovate our heritage home overlooking the harbour and establish a new garden, albeit on a smaller scale.
Less is more...

Happy memories of a Taste Great Southern event Jim and I hosted last year with our friends Sue and David of Moojepin Foods
A highlight was having Sabrina as MC.
We had floated this idea some years before finally getting around to it. I have to say I am delighted that it happened in 2024 and will be remembered as a thoroughly enjoyable evening shared with our guests.
Seize the day, is my advice!

Happy Easter to all, we hope that you enjoy this time. As a family, catch ups together are not easy due to distance. But this week we are together, gathering around the table and enjoying each other's company. I will gather the last few bedraggled blooms from the garden and enjoy a little time with them.
Photo by on her visit last year. The weather will be a rather mixed bag, we will go between inside and the outside.

Garden gathered flowers picked from Riverdale, arranged in an antique urn for a special afternoon tea celebration yesterday.
What a joy to deliver to a client that loves flowers and cake as much as I do. It's the perfect combination, in my opinion!
Floret zinnias feature in this summer urn

This gorgeous photo was generously shared by one of our lovely workshop guests, Julia .
Hannah and I hosted 10 lovely women for a Floral and Photography Workshop.
These days are an inspiration to me always. Warm, generous guests soaking up the opportunity to work with my garden gathered blooms.
Hannah helped everyone with their photography, and there were many light bulb moments as people got to understand features on their phones and cameras.
Thank you.
