Field to vase morning - May 24 2025

Date: May 24 2025
Time: 10:30 - 13:30
Place: Outbloom flower farm, Betws Bledrws, SA48 8PA

Have you ever wanted to peek behind the scenes of a working flower farm? This is your chance to visit our beautiful farm in the Welsh hills. You'll get to enjoy a tour of the field and polytunnel, select your favourite flowers, and learning how to arrange them beautifully in your favourite vase. 

May is emerald green and positively exploding with life and beauty. This is when hardy annuals and outdoor flowers start to bloom including Snapdragons, Aquilegia, Sweet Rocket, and Laceflower. 

Join us for a hands-on morning led by John, the farmer-florist behind Outbloom Flower Farm. Here's what you'll experience:

Farm Tour: Explore where and how we grow our flowers and get a glimpse of the farm’s daily operations. You'll see how we grow keeping nature in mind and how we are working towards a fully regenerative farm.

Pick your own: You’ll have the chance to cut a selection of your own flowers straight from the field. You'll learn at what stage to cut each flower to get the most life in the vase.

Care & Arranging: Learn how to condition your flowers to make them last longer and arrange them into stunning displays.

Tea and Cake: Take a break and refuel with a hot drink and home-made cake.

What if it rains?

Don’t worry! In case of bad weather, we’ll still do the tour (so bring wellies and waterproofs!) and will always be able to cut from the polytunnel. However, we might pre-cut a selection of outdoor flowers for you to work with so they are dry.
