If you've ever wondered how we grow so many gorgeous flowers here in South West Scotland, this is your chance to take a peek behind the scenes.
On Saturday 15th & Sunday 16th August 2020, we'll be welcoming visitors through the garden gate. This is part of the 'Big Flower Farmers Weekend' of events across the UK, organised by members of 'Flowers From The Farm'.
The Galloway Flowers Farm isn't normally open to visitors & booking is essential.
The tour will begin promptly at 2.30pm each afternoon. Approximate duration 1 hour.
Rosie Gray, Artisan Flower Farmer & Florist & Founder of Galloway Flowers will welcome you & show you around the Cutting beds. Rosie has been growing & arranging gorgeous flowers in her 'just picked from the garden' style for many years. This is the fifth season for Galloway Flowers in Scotland. Our locally grown, seasonal flowers decorate many homes, weddings & funerals each year.
