Beginner Growers Workshop

Have you wanted to start your flower journey, but all the things you need to think of are overwhelming that you have no idea where to start? Well this course is absolutely for you! With detailed information and worksheets you can use and all the information you need to start your growing journey, you will be so happy you invested in yourself.

The biggest thing I needed was information, but also to just get started and get my hands dirty. Well, you will be doing both on this amazing weekend jam packed with practical activities as well as loads of information, walks through the garden, demo’s and the business of flowers.

The information you will get is so valuable and is a combination of what I have learnt from growing, development to an established brand and farm.

Topics We Will Cover
Setting your floral goals & planning your space
Standard bed design and spacing
Organic growing and soil health
Cutting garden flowers
Succession planting
Seed sowing
Propagation methods
Seasonal flowers
Plant spacing guide
Expenses planning
Seasonal task calender
Dahlia propagating and planting for the Summer season
Growing for your market
Wrapping and pricing
Marketing your flowers
And much more

You will also get your hands dirty and sow your own seeds for the coming season with our organic seeds grown on the farm
You will get your gardeners tool belt which is a game changer for any farmer, event designer and general creative badass.
There are so many more great things we will include but wont give away too much.
All of this information as well as the following is included;
Morning snack, lunch and afternoon snack both days
Coffee and refreshing waters and homemade lemonade
Tool belt
Seasonal seed starter kit
Flower workable calendar
Booklet of information and all notes
Some nice surprises you will get a hint of that closer to the time.

Beyond my expectations! Teneale shares her knowledge and passion for flower farming with such generosity and energy! She has inspired me to get started growing and given me the confidence to build a business around it! The course is well designed and interesting - practical, yet with a good theoretical foundation.

Such a great and thoughtfully designed course, packed with info and tips. Teneale wholeheartedly shared lessons learnt, failures, and successes giving us the best possible start to our future businesses! I thoroughly enjoyed the practical work of seed starting, lifting and dividing dahlias, and making compost. I feel I’ve joined a fabulous community of people willing to share and support one another.

This growers workshop provided a thorough understanding of all the elements of starting , managing and growing a cut flower farm as a business. The course content around the business side was invaluable as topics covered everything from our social media presence to understanding what to charge per stem. Half of the battle is determining what to charge the end user without pricing oneself out of the market is crucial.



In terms of the practical aspects, I really enjoyed walking through the farm and being able to ask questions about flowering times and seeing the reality of a working farm. I gained a lot of knowledge going though the practical exercise of splitting dahlia tubers and knowing what to look for on a tuber. The section on seed starting was just as priceless!



The segment on making your own compost and seeing this practically done was very beneficial. Arina Duvenhage was such a breath of fresh air as she passionately spoke of regenerative farming methods. Her knowledge on health and the microbiome was fascinating to listen to.



In closing, this course is ideal for anyone who wants to either:

1: Learn about the power of flowers for the

first time or

2: Wants to get to grips with gaps experienced

by a seasoned gardener



The scenic views and hospitality of the family is also very personal and makes everyone attending feel as though they are part of something bigger.



Thank you!
