Birch Farm Flowers

30/03/2026

There’s something bittersweet about wedding flowers, so beautiful for just a few days, holding all the emotion of that moment, and then fading.

This bouquet was picked and arranged from the farm last summer, made for a wedding day that passed far too quickly. But the story didn’t quite end there. The bride chose to have it painted by the talented .custom.botanist giving it a new life and a way to hold onto that memory beyond the day.

I love seeing flowers leave the farm and become part of something bigger, grown here, arranged for a moment, then reimagined through another small creative business. Each step adds its own layer of meaning.

It’s a beautiful reminder that while flowers themselves are fleeting, the feeling around them doesn’t have to be.

If you’re planning your own wedding flowers, it’s worth thinking about how you might preserve them — whether dried, pressed, or turned into art. I’m always happy to help create bouquets that are beautiful on the day and leave a memory to treasure long after.

Thanks to the incredibly talented Hannah .custom.botanist for sharing and also for the gorgeous pictures.

Our spring workshops and the Flower Club have now fully booked, and we just wanted to say a genuine thank you to everyone who is joining us here this season.

It really does mean a lot.

If you missed the club this time, there are still plenty of ways to spend time at the farm over the summer.

In June, we’ll be marking the longest day with a relaxed Flower Crown Workshop, using seasonal flowers grown here in the field.

Throughout the summer, the Pick Your Own sessions will be open, simple, unhurried time to wander, pick, and enjoy the space.

And in September, when the garden is full and heavy with colour, the dahlia workshop returns.

If you’d like the details, just comment “WORKSHOP” below and I’ll send everything over to you.

You can also book via the link in the bio.

This week at the farm has been a quieter one outdoors, but still full in other ways.

I’ve been sowing more seeds, snapdragons, poppies, forget-me-nots and fennel, small but important jobs.

I finally tackled a tidy of the greenhouse and shed too. It’s one of those jobs I put off, but once I start it has a wonderfully settling effect, clearing space both practically and mentally.

The weather has been relentlessly wet, so I’ve stayed off the plot for now. The ground is too saturated, and I’d rather wait than risk damaging it. Hopefully a dry spell isn’t too far away and work can begin again properly.

Behind the scenes, I’ve been refreshing some of our website content, using these slower winter weeks to catch up on the jobs that get pushed aside once the season gathers pace. This month’s focus has been our wedding flower offering, and I can’t wait to start sharing more of that with you soon.

And despite all the grey skies, the snowdrops are out and the bulbs are pushing through the soil. Quiet signs that spring is on its way, whether the weather agrees or not.
