PYO open session

from £5.00

Having attend a PYO workshop and armed with all the knowledge you need to pick the best blooms, return to the flower field to refill your bucket throughout the growing season. You’re welcome to bring friends and family and share your knowledge with them and should they wish additional empty buckets are available to purchase for £5.

If you’re confident you know what you’re doing when it comes to cutting and conditioning British blooms, you are also welcome to choose this type of PYO option.

You can choose a flat fee to fill your bucket or instead opt to pay by the stem (£1 per stem). I’ll take a £5 deposit for this method on booking and accept cash or card on the day once you’ve finished picking. If paying by the stem, you can bring any vessel you like to fill with flowers.

I will keep this page updated with opening times for picking and you can let me know when you’d like to come during the checkout process. Please allow at least 24 hours between booking and picking.

Further Information.

Grove and Green is a working flower farm. The ground is uneven underfoot and we recommend closed toe shoes. Unfortunately we can’t accommodate children under 12 or pets during these sessions. PYO sessions are sadly not wheelchair accessible.

PYO events are very much an outdoor experience and will still go ahead in light rain so please dress accordingly. We do have a small area of shelter available should it be necessary.

It is important to bear seasonality in mind. Not all of the field will be blooming all at once but we will always have a good selection of flowers available.

PYO Open sessions are best suited to those who have previously attended a workshop to learn the optimum timing for cutting and how to condition. I will be on hand to answer any questions but this will be an unguided session.

Terms and Conditions.

In the event of extreme weather conditions forcing us to cancel, it will be possible to move your booking to an alternative date or receive a full refund.

If you are no longer able to attend a PYO event you have booked, refunds are not available. It is no problem to send someone in your place, collect a bucket of flowers to the same value or with at least 48 hours notice it may be possible to move your booking to an alternative date if there is availability.

No more than 3 stems of any one flower may be cut unless stated.

If you wish to pick additional flowers once your bucket is full, these will be charged at £1 per stem. Extra buckets will be available for £5
