My story so far

I’m Olivia, known by my family and friends as Liv, a self-taught Flower Grower and Florist. Located in East Devon, between picture- perfect villages and the terracotta cliffs of Budleigh Salterton, sits Stowford Farm - a very special place for me and my family. Not only is it our farm and home, it is now my workplace. Here’s a little bit about how Stowford Flowers got started…

Stowford Flowers is a tiny flower farm and floristry studio based in East Devon ran by me, Liv. I first discovered seeds and in particular, flower seeds, about four years ago. I quickly became fascinated with the growing process, nurturing tiny seedlings, potting them on and planting them out into the patch. My mum was given a greenhouse by neighbours down the lane, and I just remember thinking that I couldn’t wait to start filling the shelves with tiny vegetable plants! Having had no previous experience, I spent a lot of time experimenting and was surprised by the amount of flowers I had grown. It didn’t take long for me to become totally hooked.

Over the past few years, I have established a loyal and very lovely set of local customers who receive my bouquet subscription service, trust me to create their wedding flowers and attend various flower based workshops at the farm which I run.

I’m so happy you’ve found me here, and I look forward to chatting with you soon!

Working in nature and making people happy with my flowers is not only my job, but something that brings me pure joy, there is truly nothing better.

It’s just yards from the flower fields. Here I work with the very best of what’s in season to create bespoke bouquets and displays for lovely locals

Low-waste, low-impact

  • We’re entirely foam-free and plastic-free, and try to be as sustainable as we can with the materials we use

  • All our flowers are grown by our fair hands, meaning a minimal carbon footprint. And when Stowford’s flower season ends, we work with a local grower who cares about provenance just as much as we do
