Join Bel & Mark, the founders of Botaniculture, for a special one-off trial class at our flower farm in Silvan, Yarra Valley.
Meet Bel, florist and founder of Botaniculture, and Mark, horticulturist and flower farmer. Together, they bring the two sides of the flower industry together — growing and designing with flowers.
Spend the morning immersed in the world of locally grown flowers, sustainable floristry, and commercial flower farming. Learn about growing flowers for floristry, seasonal crops, harvesting, and the journey from seed to stem to vase.
You’ll also get hands-on experience with seasonal flowers and an introduction to the foundations of sustainable floristry.
This special trial class is perfect if you’re considering a career change, dreaming of working with flowers, or simply want to experience our 10-week Farmer–Florist course before committing.
Come for the day, meet Bel & Mark, get your hands in the flowers, and see if Farmer–Florist is for you.
Spaces are strictly limited.
