$110 per person | 2 hours on-farm | Sunday 31st May 10am–12pm
Join us at Em’s Bees & Blooms Flower Farm for a hands-on, practical, and inspiring workshop designed to set your garden up for a productive winter and a beautiful spring beyond.
As we move into early winter here in Tasmania, this is the critical window for sowing cold hardy annuals, the flowers that bloom early and abundantly in spring, as well as nutrient-rich winter vegetables that will nourish your household through the cooler months.
With the rising cost of living, fuel, and groceries, there has never been a better time to learn how to grow your own food and flowers. This workshop empowers you with the skills and confidence to become more self-sufficient while reconnecting with the rhythm of the seasons.
I’ll share exactly what we’re sowing on the farm right now to ensure armfuls of spring blooms and a thriving winter vegetable garden, and how you can replicate it in your own backyard.
This is not a lecture; it’s a practical, confidence-building session where you’ll sow alongside me, ask questions, and leave with everything you need to get growing.
What are cold hardy annuals — and why they matter for early spring blooms
The best flower and vegetable varieties to sow now for Tasmanian conditions
Planning a productive winter vegetable garden for homegrown nourishment
Timing: when to sow, when to plant out, and how to avoid common mistakes
Seed raising techniques (demonstration and hands-on practice)
Soil preparation basics for autumn and winter planting
How to grow strong, resilient plants that handle frost and wind
Practical steps toward greater self-sufficiency at home
A guided, hands-on seed sowing session
Your own seedling tray sown during the workshop to take home
A packet of seasonal flower or vegetable seeds to try again at home
Take-home workshop notes for future reference
This is a relaxed, welcoming morning designed to feel both educational and nourishing.
Spots are intentionally limited to keep the session personal and interactive.
Spring flowers and winter harvests are grown months before they’re enjoyed.
This workshop will show you how.
