How we cut artisan flowers for a wholesale order

- Опубликовано: 15 июн 2022
- Flower farmer and florist Georgie Newbery of Common Farm Flowers goes cutting for a wholesale order and has a chat about how different this kind of work is to her usual retail bouquet work. It's worth thinking about what kind of flower farmer you want to be - after all, there are many different ways to earn a living growing flowers, and it's unlikely you can do everything. Have a follow along and while it's British Flowers Week have a think about ways that artisan growers in the UK may be working in a post-pandemic/post-Brexit/oil-crisis world.

You teach me so much. I’m a first year flower farmer and navigating all the new things that are second nature to someone like you. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!!! 🥰
You are so welcome! x
I love coming over just to admire your flowers. It brightens my day.
So nice of you x
Sitting back, exhausted from gardening in the heat, seeing your beautiful farm and listening to your sage advice is soothing and reassuring ~ as I forge a head in my second year of this. I can’t wait to have the beautiful established rows of roses and shrubs and babies, as you do! A
Lovely video

Những bông hoa tuyệt đẹp tuyệt vời , chúc bạn ngày mới may mắn
Can’t imagine you doing anything that’s not perfection! Any wholesaler that buys from you will get a product that is as close to perfect as is humanly possible. I don’t know many people that take as many pains as you do to make sure your clients receive value for their money. I’m sure you will be successful in this new venture should you decide to go for it. Your friend in South Carolina believes in your new integrity and good heart.
ah thank you x
I love your honesty and to the point chats...Thank you!

Very interesting (not that I will ever be a flower farmer). Such a lot of effort but beautiful flowers. You obviously love your work. 🧡💐
thank you x
Very beautiful variety awesome presentations nice video
Thank you so much 🙂 x
Love your videos! I’m interested in selling stems to florists but from a very modest plot… less than 100 stems. Not sure this is reasonable. How do you determine how many stems you should have available, at minimum? Thx!
talk to the florists you plan to sell to and see what they'd like - if you have a small space grow greater value per stem that's my biggest tip.
How do you work out how much to charge please? Its something we are finding very difficult
Come on my flower farming workshop or my lifestyle business workshop - both have a discussion about this difficult topic x
I hope this isn't a stupid question but I'm interested to know where you may have acquired your trolley. Thank you
it's available to order online and it's called 'the handy'
Most kind. Thankyou
I would love to know what kind of roses those are and the name
in this video I cut Gertrude Jekyll, James Austin, Queen of Sweden, Gentle Hermione, and Wollaton Old hall x
_What kind of flower farmer are you?_
I'm turning out to be a rabbit flower food grower...
_You can always tell where I am, if you listen for the rattle of the trolley._
Lol it sounds like you're a ghost. On some cool summer evenings you can hear the faint rattling echo of her trolley as if she were still tottering about the garden.
_There's my falling down barn_
Didn't you say your mother-in-law lives in the barn 😨?
How's your bare root roses you planted? I planted a few, and they are pretty sad looking.
Something I've come to realize is that a lot of tasks take way more time than I imagined, like cutting. "Surely it can't take that long to cut a bunch of stems," I thought. Ha.
bare root new rose stock settling in nicely but not enough to cut this year. Granny lives in the tractor shed. Cutting flowers is time consuming x
