Our Unique Flourish Online Programme
We know how hard it is to find the right course for you, and to commit to the right offer. We get it. Your cash is hard-earned and you don’t want to waste time or money on the wrong thing.
How are we different?
The traditional floristry training model is no longer relevant in today’s world. We recognise that you are coming into floristry from different starting points, and with different needs – depending on your current business model or situation. You need to learn at your own pace and fit it in with other commitments. You need to find people that understand your particular situation and background. You need to learn eco floristry that is relevant to YOU and YOUR level of experience.
What’s the solution?
We’ve thought long and hard about this, asked our students and our customers and listened to what you’ve told us.
We’ve developed and curated 3 distinct eco floristry training programmes, for 3 very different levels of experience and business or income stream areas:
So – whether you are:
A hobbyist – dipping your toe into this fabulous world of floristry
A flower farmer – growing your own flowers and looking to develop your floristry offer as an income
A florist – who was perhaps traditionally or bench trained, looking to update and upskill and ditch the foam!
We have got the answer for you!

“As a cut flower grower, sustainability has always been at the heart of everything we do. Having floristry skills increases the opportunity for diverse income streams such as providing wedding florals and funeral flowers – or even just for packaging and presenting our flowers to take to market and direct to consumers – it has really elevated our business growth. I’d encourage ALL flower farmers to look at the many diverse forms of income – it’s so important to have all of these areas covered, to be a profitable flower farm in an increasingly crowded marketplace“
Roz Chandler
“I now feel (regrettably) that I wasted too much time on the wrong training route. Hours and hours of out-moded theory that is no longer relevant in today’s marketplace, hours and hours watching demos and creating designs with the same ingredients as everyone else – so that everything looked the same – and ALL of it in nasty floral foam! I had to un-learn SO many bad habits, and then discover, trial and test eco-friendly, no-foam techniques on my own. I’m determined to teach people a better way”.
