FLORISTRY COURSES

South Wales

AN INTRODUCTION TO SUSTAINABLE FLORISTRY

Learn the basics of floristry using only British flowers and foliage with sustainable methods and mechanics (no floral foam). This is a two day course which is run from my workshop at the farm. The course covers conditioning and care, bouquets, wiring, wedding bouquets and small arrangements. There is also a trip to a local flower farm included where you will learn how to order flowers and how they are grown. The course is suitable for beginners with no floristry experience. The course runs from March to November, please contact me for more details and available dates.

£520 for two days, lunch is included and you will get to take home your bouquets.

SUSTAINABLE MECHANICS

This course is for florists who would like to move away from using floral foam and start to work with sustainable mechanics instead. The course takes place in my workshop at the farm. We will look at the designs most used by your business and adapt these to be eco friendly. This course is for one day, extra days can be added and includes lunch along with all of the equipment and materials. Please contact me for more details and available dates.

£250 for one day.

FLORISTRY FOR FLOWER GROWERS

Come along to my workshop with your flowers, or I will travel to you. Learn how to work with your own flowers and create beautiful arrangements. The course can be adapted to cover wedding work, sympathy flowers, bouquets or events. All arrangements are made with sustainable mechanics and have British flowers in mind. This course is suitable for growers with any level of floristry experience. Please contact me for more details and available dates.

£130 for one day.

 WORKSHOPS

I offer seasonal flower workshops between the months of March and December from my studio at the farm and other locations across South Wales. All workshops are suitable for complete beginners and are relaxed with small class sizes.

Please see my Events page for the latest workshops or get in touch if you would like to enquire about alternative dates and classes.

We never use floral foam in our workshops, traditional methods are always taught. Where possible we will use flowers from our own cutting garden and use British grown flowers.
