A little note before you book We are a working flower farm, so this is a true farm experience. Our workshop begins out amongst the growing fields rather than along a traditional paved path. You'll be walking through grass, uneven ground and garden beds, and conditions can vary depending on the weather. Please wear comfortable enclosed shoes and clothing suitable for being outdoors. Our fields are not fully accessible, and guests need to be comfortable walking and standing on uneven ground during the field portion of the experience. We want everyone to have a safe and enjoyable time, so please consider whether the terrain and physical requirements are suitable for you before booking.

Welcome to our flower farm — where growing flowers is a way of life
We’re Bel & Mark, a florist and horticulturist who share a love of growing, designing and working with beautiful seasonal flowers.
Our family farm is nestled in Silvan, in the heart of the Yarra Valley, where we grow speciality cut flowers with the seasons. From fragrant garden roses and sweet peas to dahlias, hydrangeas and wildflowers, everything is grown, harvested and cared for by hand.
Come and learn with us.
Explore how flowers are grown from seed to stem, discover what makes seasonal flowers so special and get an insight into the realities of running a working flower farm.
Sustainability is at the heart of what we do. We work with the seasons, care for our soil and grow flowers without relying on imported blooms.
