6 weeks and counting till The Jubilee

It dawned on me this morning that there are only 6 weeks until The Queen's Jubilee weekend and our stall at Hay on Wye's 'Jubilee Fair on the Square' as part of the Hay Festival.. Eeek!


Following on from the stall's success last year, we will be there with the lovely Chloe from BareBlooms with a stall full of lots of flowers and flowery related things.  Exciting stuff, especially as it's another outing for us as member of The Flower CoOperative which was set up to help and support local flower growers and to 'bang the drum' about how wonderful British grown flowers are.

Now it's a time of growing and fingers cross(ing) that all our flowers will be in bloom in time and that the weather will be kinder to us than it was last year during the 'Fair on the Square.'


If you're going to the Hay Festival over the Jubilee weekend (June 2nd, 3rd, 4th etc) then please stop by and say hello.  We'll be right in the middle of Hay on Wye at the Market Square.  You won't be able to miss us from the festival site if you walk into town.  We'll be the ones with a big colourful stall full of flowers.

Meanwhile there's still a mountain of work to do such as potting on, sowing yet more seeds, weeding and maintaining the plots not to mention lots of wedding flowers too.  


Oh, and the apple and pear blossom is out at last.  Which is great news as we're hoping to use blossom and Lily of the Valley in a Bride's bouquet this weekend.

Now the sun is trying it's best to make an appearance and the flower plots are a calling me.


Toodleoooo
