Join us for our first Flower Festival at Whitchurch Silk Mill.
Floral arrangements from local florists, makers and craftspeople will adorn the three floors of the Mill over this three day event. Outside, a floral installation will hang from the top of the Mill to the lawn, laced with flowers knitted and crocheted by a team of creative volunteers. The back lawn will display the pom poms made by local children and there will be a floral archway to admire too!
Soil Smiths will also be here on Friday and Saturday! Soil Smiths assist regen and conventional gardeners and growers to help create healthy soil through good land management practices and the application of microbe-rich compost extracts and organic plant feeds when required. Bring your compost/soil along to the flower festival and they’ll show it to you under the microscope!
Art‑K will be bringing a splash of colour and creativity to the Flower Festival on Saturday and Sunday, inviting visitors to get hands-on with a free, fun watercolour activity. Whether you’re feeling inspired or just fancy having a go, it’s a lovely chance to relax, play with paint, and create something uniquely yours, perfect for all ages and abilities!
Floral displays from The Garden Editor, Four Seasons by Sarah, Andover Flower Club, Whitchurch in Bloom, Loyalty Cottage, Abigail Rose Creative and many more!
