Come and enjoy a morning with Hydons' talented florist, Lara Spooner. She'll show you how to transform autumn foliage into your very own stunning wreaths and displays. Bringing wonderful autumnal colours into your home for you to enjoy as the year comes to a close. 

Each workshop place costs £65, and includes all flowers, foliage, materials and refreshments.

Lara started her flower journey watching her mother, a botanial painter, work!

Lara embarked on doing floristry courses for fun but then found that she was hooked and has enjoyed working for Meadowfolk, Hayloft Florals amongst other very talented florists.

Lara joined Hydon’s Flowers in February 2023, helping out on the patch, creating our bespoke arrangements for events and running our workshops. She enjoys foraging to add something 'a bit different' to her designs, and loves imparting all that she has learnt to others. She especially loves to see the difference it can make when people spend time in a creative and safe space. 

This workshop was such a lovely getaway. It felt peaceful and creative! I feel like I earned extremely useful knowledge on proper flower care and design. I can take these tips to raising and arranging flowers in the future.

The team are so knowledgeable and shared that knowledge freely. I felt relaxed on the farm and was completely in a flow state while making the arrangement. It didn't matter about the end result, it was the process (doing) that is the most beneficial to me. Thank you.
