Harvesting willow for making Christmas wreaths
Join flower farmer and florist Georgie Newbery of Common Farm Flowers in Somerset as she harvests an order of willow for @petershamnurseries5296 in Richmond, west London. This willow will be used as wreath bases for 100% biodegradable Christmas wreaths. It's great that such a high profile nursery like Petersham is blazing a trail like this, cutting plastic and wire from their Christmas products so that our winter celebrations don't cost the earth. If you'd like to see how and learn to make both mossed twig-based wreaths and willow wreaths with no wire, floral foam, or plastic, please see the link below to order downloads. We have some festive wreath demos online, which are now available to buy. Click here for details: https://www.commonfarmflowers.com/col... You can see our full workshop calendar here https://www.commonfarmflowers.com/pag... If you're booking a place on our workshops or demos the website will ask you to choose a delivery date - any date will do! And if you can't join our sessions live then you are still very welcome to book as we send the recording and notes of the workshop out to everyone afterwards, so you can download the session and refer back to it as and when you need to. If you enjoy the tips and tricks Georgie gives you here, or would simply like to support the channel, the link to her Buy Me a Coffee page is here: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/COMMONFARM Follow Georgie on instagram @commonfarmflowers And on Twitter you can find Georgie at / theflowerfarmer #willowwreaths #willowharvest #willow #harvestingwillow #flowerfarmersyear #winterflowerfarm #novemberflowerfarm #sustainablefloristry #sustainableChristmas
