Hello lovely people, Pick Your Flowers Thursdays will be starting an hour earlier than last year from 4pm-8pm. If you are picking please leave it no later than 7pm(ish) to give you time to pick and get your flowers wrapped. You can also guarantee a table by booking and reserving online on our website. There’s even an option for waiter service if booking for a celebration. Children’s containers will still be available for youngsters if purchased with a standard sized container. We really look forward to seeing you and thank you for all your support it means so much. It’s going to be a scorcher so stay hydrated and stay in the shade as much as possible! 🫶🌸 The BG team xx ...

Huge congratulations are in order to @flowersfromthefarm for not only their amazing show & PR at @rhschelsea but also for their work in getting the flower-growing sector officially recognised by government, funders and policy-makers.

As Georgie Newbery, Chair, Flowers from the Farm and owner of @commonfarmflowers says: "Getting this SIC code means that not only can we prove how much flower growers are putting into the British economy but that we`re in a position to be acknowledged and encouraged by government, because we finally exist! - and the most important thing is that we can now look at the biodiversity net gain protocol, which will give us protection. The SIC code also allows us to lobby for more, and if we can lobby for more, then it will be much, much clearer for consumers that the flowers that they are buying are British-grown."

Benefits to the consumer include:

Fresher, longer-lasting flowers - more local funding means a stronger supply of British flowers that reach vases days faster than chemically preserved imports

Easier sustainable/eco-friendly shopping - a thriving domestic market gives consumers a genuinely sustainable, low-carbon, and pesticide-light choice

Greater variety - investment into local growers will expand the availability of unique, fragrant, and heritage varieties that don`t survive long-haul shipping.

This really is brilliant news for British Flower Growers, and we should all raise a glass this bank holiday weekend, to the people who have made it happen! ...

Ranunculus are growing right now and these have got to be up there in our top favourite flowers ever! These will be featuring in our fresh bunches @loddingtonfarmshop 🌸#ranunculus #springflower #kentflowers ...
