FLOWER FARM
What started as a small cutting garden at the front of the Rebel Rebel house has now expanded into a large field nestled amongst woodland, filled with No Dig flower beds of seasonal organically grown blooms. We pride ourselves on using locally sourced flowers where possible in London, but when the opportunity came in Italy to grow our own flowers we jumped at the chance. Growing everything from sunflowers to tomatoes, we have an extensive range of flowers to choose from.
We now run a range of workshops and bespoke courses and services from the flower farm.

ACTIVITY AT THE FLOWER FARM
FEBRUARY 2025
February has been an exciting month with the arrival of our new polytunnel! We have placed it in a sunny spot in the field, close to the pergola, which makes it a great space to work. We lost a couple of trees next to where the polytunnel is placed, and we realised that the stumps were perfectly positioned for a bench and small table - for those little moments we get a chance to relax and reflect on the farm with a refreshing cup of tea (or glass of wine?!). It's always sad to lose a tree, but if we can utilise the stumps they remain part of the story of the farm. We are a sentimental bunch when it comes to nature, so this suits us very well!
JANUARY 2025
We have had some crazy wind storms here in the Garfagnana over the winter, and during December this caused a tree to fall on our precious polytunnel! At first we thought it was destroyed but on closer inspection discovered only the door and first section were bent out of shape. With the help of our trusty handyman we have saved it by making it a metre shorter. We have also placed an order for our second polytunnel which is really exciting... watch this space!
