One for the flower farmers

Join Georgie at the farm this October

Visit the farm in October for a 1, 2 or 3 day intensive workshop

The Flower Farming Intensive Workshop is a 1, 2 or 3 day workshop, delivered by Georgie at Common Farm Flowers, between Bruton and Wincanton, in Somerset.

The aim of this workshop is to help you grow your flower farming business. You can book the full 3 days or book 1 or 2 days individually, if you prefer.

This workshop is suitable for people who’ve some experience of growing flowers for sale, but who want to refine their processes, strategise to optimise their time and their crop growing, make more of their land, and make sure they are taking advantage of many different possibilities for earning which flower farming offers. (If you’re earlier on in your flower farming career we have an online or at the farm introduction to flower farming workshop that you might like to look at).

Here’s what we cover on each of the 3 days of the Flower Farming Intensive Workshop:

Day one:

Land management and growing practice for a flower and foliage crop you can rely on

Day two:

Business planning and marketing

Day three:

Cutting and conditioning your crop, and floristry

Here’s what previous students had to say about the 3 days:

“Brilliant 3 days at the farm with the team visiting & revisiting the nuts & bolts of running a real flower farming & artisan floristry business. Good pace, enormous amounts of practical information shared & the right amount of ‘doing’ to bring home key points on organisation & budgeting of both time & resources. Plenty of individual inspiration & support. Excellent number of students in group & what a lovely bunch! Delicious no faff lunches from a local farm shop. Not my first workshop & likely not my last.”

“Just completed the Flower Farming Intensive Workshop. Georgie's wealth of knowledge and experience made the workshop invaluable. I am beginning my flower farming journey, but my fellow 'learners' have developed businesses and Georgie encompassed our, very diverse, knowledge with consummate aplomb. I left feeling empowered with much food for thought... onwards and upwards!!”

“Great three days spent with the inspiring Georgie learning about how to set up & run our own flower business. Georgie was generous with her time, experience, knowledge & flowers. Another bonus which I hadn't realised would be of such value was meeting other attendees to keep in touch with & share the experience. Georgie did a fantastic job of ensuring that the course was tailored to meet all our needs at a pace that allowed lots of questions as well as being practical & hands on. Lots of relevant information that is just not available anywhere else that builds confidence & helps your structure your business from every angle. Highly recommended.”
