Cosmos and Kale

Saison 3 · Épisode 1

mercredi 3 février 2021 • Durée 46:01

Ally and her family grow as many flowers as possible on their acre of land south of Hobart, Tasmania. Originally from NSW, Ally never believed flowers were an important part of daily life until living in Europe and Tasmania changed her mind. With techniques learned from regenerative market gardeners, cool and warm season annuals are grown alongside hardy perennials that can withstand Tasmania’s famously fickle weather and the sandy soil. Ally and the family also grow dahlias, roses and lots of edible plants. The flowers are harvested and arranged in mixed bouquets for their stall at Hobart’s iconic Sunday farmers’ market, The Farm Gate Market. Ally loves talking to customers about flower miles, sustainable flower farming and the local flower movement.

Acre of Roses

Saison 1 · Épisode 10

vendredi 11 septembre 2020 • Durée 54:43

As a young girl, Sandy would visit her grandmother in the garden city of Christchurch, New Zealand, on holidays. It was during those special visits that she developed her deep love of flowers. With the middle name Rose, Sandy has always been drawn toward these special flowers that bloom so abundantly.In 2009, Sandy left her corporate career in marketing to pursue her passion for flowers. After being mentored by a retired florist, she opened her own floral studio specializing in events and weddings.A few years into owning her floral design business, Sandy had the opportunity to purchase rose bushes from a nursery that decided to focus exclusively on trees. She bought all 1,000 plants.“I knew we had good conditions to grow them, and given that we are over an hour away from the local wholesale flower market, I thought it was a good way to end the 2 a.m. jaunts to buy roses,” Sandy says. “At that point I had just finished reading Amy Stewart’s book, Flower Confidential, and was mortified about the global flower industry and its environmental and human health impacts.”As other florists in the area eagerly snapped up her fragrant organically grown roses, they started asking, “What else can you source and provide?” This simple question started her quest to find other local flower growers who could provide seasonal blooms beyond those she could grow. Meeting and connecting with other growers who were equally as passionate about seasonal blooms led to the creation of Consortium Botanicus. Recently she was appointed to the board of newly created Flowers Industry Australia which will provide advocacy for issues affecting flower growers and florists across Australia
