GROWING AT GARDD DELYN

At Gardd Delyn Flowers our aim is to grow beautiful blooms as sustainably as possible. We want to nuture our incredible surroundings so we use a range of innovative techniques that are good for the flowers and the environment, working in harmony with the ecosystem. We are always working to improve our growing practices, often trying completely new or very traditional ideas.
We minimise waste wherever possible and ensure everything we use is repurposed or recycled where we can, for instance our packaging is completely compostable, and we compost everything we can to put goodness back into our soil.
We use a soil blocking technique to sow our seeds to avoid the use of plastic trays and enhance the health of our baby plants. 
We use local materials to feed our soils such as sheep's fleece from neighbouring farms which would otherwise go to waste. This helps gives nutrients, gets rid of the need for weed membranes or any chemical sprays and conserves moisture in the soil, reducing the need for watering. Win win!

MEET THE GROWERS

Mother and daughter team Mary and Jess have always dreamt of growing masses of flowers sustainably. They now grow on a charming patch of land in the beautiful Carmarthenshire countryside.

JESS

Former Geography Teacher and sustainability geek, Jess loves making sure our flowers enhance our beautiful Carmarthenshire countryside.  When she isn't trying to optimise the compost bins she loves creating with flowers.
