Butterfly Bears Flower Farm

What to expect

Together, we'll plant tulips for spring, pre-sprout Ranculus, move and divide perennials, weed the beds and give the garden an autumn tidy-up. As a thank-you for your help, you’ll also receive a bunch of tulips in spring, grown from the bulbs we plant together on the day.

This is a chance to get your hands in the soil, learn some practical gardening skills, enjoy the fresh air and spend time in nature in a relaxed, friendly setting. No gardening experience is needed — just a willingness to get involved and enjoy the day!
