Learn how to grow your own edible flowers and discover fabulous things to do with them on these fun, inspirational and delicious Edible Flower Workshops.
I’ve been growing edible flowers for many years, at home and as part of my work, including growing edible flowers for acclaimed restaurants and clients.
As well as growing, harvesting and selling these gorgeous blooms, I write about and teach what to do with your colourful, fragrant harvests.
Here at my homestead I grow edible flowers year round (even in the depths of winter) and I look forward to sharing my enthusiasm for growing them with you.
Find out about the other courses I run here at the homestead and across the UK here. I teach this workshop at other locations across the UK (and beyond) and offer a shorter one hour talk in person or via zoom – please contact me to arrange this.
What you’ll learn on the Edible Flower Workshop
As far as possible, we’ll be using edible flowers grown in my garden here in Wales, as well as flowers foraged from the hedgerows. Part of the course will include picking flowers for your recipes and crafts on the day.
On the Edible Flower Workshop you will learn:
How to grow edible flowers year round, whatever your space
The best edible flowers to choose for your needs
Companion planting and boosting biodiversity with edible flowers
How to pick edible flowers to maximise productivity
Seed saving (so you can grow them for free)
Preserving, packaging and storing techniques
How to dry the flowers for year round use
Recipes for sweet and savoury dishes, drinks, preserves, pickles, flower sprinkles and more.
