FAQ

Are you wondering…

Our most-asked questions about British-grown flowers, starting a cutting patch, flower farming as a business, and Roz's books, courses and podcast.

Can I buy British-grown flowers directly from Field Gate Flowers?+

Yes. During the growing season we sell our farm-grown flowers in several ways, including our Flower Bank, one-off flower buckets and seasonal collections. Availability changes throughout the year because we grow with the seasons rather than importing flowers to fill gaps.

Do you supply flowers to florists and other flower businesses?+

Yes. We grow flowers specifically for professional florists, designers and other floral businesses, with a strong focus on beautiful varieties, excellent stem length and flowers that perform well in floristry. Wholesale flowers are available throughout our growing season.

Can you provide flowers for my wedding?+

Absolutely. We offer everything from full-service wedding floristry to DIY wedding flowers for couples who want to arrange some or all of their flowers themselves. We can help you choose the option that suits your wedding, budget and how involved you want to be.

Can I order funeral and sympathy flowers from you?+

Yes. We create natural, garden-inspired funeral flowers using seasonal British-grown flowers wherever possible. Coffin sprays, wreaths, posies and other personal tributes can all be created, and we're always happy to talk through something particularly meaningful.

Can I visit the flower farm or come to a workshop?+

Yes. We run workshops, floristry days and special events here at the farm throughout the year. Our workshops are very hands-on and are designed to give you the confidence to create, grow and learn in a relaxed environment.

Do you teach people how to grow cut flowers?+

Yes — teaching is a huge part of Field Gate Flowers. Roz has been flower farming for 15 years and teaches both enthusiastic home growers and people who want to grow flowers commercially. Our courses include online programmes such as Seed to Vase, alongside practical learning at the farm.

Do you offer floristry courses too?+

Yes. Through Floristry at the Farm, we host practical floristry workshops and professional training, including sessions with visiting florists. The emphasis is on beautiful, seasonal floristry, excellent technique and learning in a real working flower-farm environment.

Do you help people build profitable flower and creative businesses?+

We do. Roz offers business training, strategy days and mentoring for flower farmers, florists and other creative and horticultural businesses. It combines her experience of building Field Gate Flowers with more than 30 years in sales, marketing and business.

Do you run flower retreats and experiences?+

Yes. Alongside our UK events, we run carefully curated flower-farming, floristry and business retreats in beautiful locations in the UK and Europe. They combine learning, inspiration, great food, beautiful surroundings and time with like-minded people.

Where can I learn more from Roz if I'm not ready to book a course?+
