Hi,
I would like to know if there’s a possibility to Pick your own on Saturday the 9th of May 2015.
Thanks and regards,

Hi Jo-Ann,
Apologies for the slow reply… we don’t usually get messages via our website – or at least normally they are 99% spam. Sorry to miss yours. We usually only offer PYO Weds-Fri, but we often make exceptions. What actual day are you getting married? Best Wishes,
Jen
Hi my wedding is on September 12th 2015 I was just wondering when is the best time to come to see you and pick my flowers for wedding etc please x
Hi Lauren,
Our plot starts to come alive in May really, so you are welcome to come along any time after that — just drop us a line first. We should be here Wed-Fri during the summer. Or, come along to one of our PYO days, and see how we work. We usually recommend picking on a Thursday, for a Saturday wedding. September tends to be pretty busy (though also best for masses of flowers) so I would recommend getting in your order, as soon as you have an idea of the quantity of flowers that you need. I can advise, if you give me an outline of items needed. The order can be adjusted nearer the time, if you decide you need more flowers.
I hope this helps. Regards,
Jen
