✨for Rhyarna and Jack✨

With massive thanks to Bramble Cut Flower Farm Egle Dubinkaite and Sue Fraser for the extra stems!

A brutal pregnancy, a colicky newborn, a rather energetic 2 year old and a million heatwaves this year have meant that the flower field now looks like the weediest mess 🙈 trust me, you think your plot/garden is messy, you ain’t seen nothin’! We’re also pretty exhausted! So, we’ve decided to take next season off (sort of) - we won’t be selling flowers or doing weddings or funerals but, we’ll be spending the time making the field look less like a jungle, finally building our studio and just generally making things a bit more manageable. If you already have a wedding booked in for 2027, don’t worry, we’ll obviously still be honouring your booking 😊

A little update…

I’ve been absent from social media for a while now and, the longer I’ve been away, the harder I’ve found it to come back. 2025 was an exceptionally hard year. I took on too much, pushed myself way beyond my limits and ended up severely burnt out.

I’m now pregnant, with baby number two due in July, and have been putting a lot of thought into how to work more sustainably going forward. Doug and I manage all our childcare ourselves and are increasingly set on home educating Lucy and her little sister or brother so, my days and focus will have to shift. And that’s ok. I’ll be intentionally slowing down while we find our rhythm with two little ones in tow.

This isn’t a goodbye post by any means - the flowers keep me sane (relatively)! It’s just a post to tell you that things around here may be a little slower, field expansion may take a little longer, everything may look a little messier and the stems may be a little wigglier. But, I’ll still be here, slowly growing the flowers, while also focusing more on my growing family.
