ABOUT FIELD & BLOOM
Field and Bloom was established, by me, Jan Falkingham, in 2017.
From the start, the vision has been to supply locally grown seasonal flowers and foliage for the Yorkshire market.
The business has grown gradually and I sell to florists in Sheffield, Leeds, York and surrounding areas.
I also sell DIY buckets and bouquets locally delivered between Howden and Pocklington or flowers can be collected from the field at Wressle.
GROWN WITH CARE
Nature doesn’t hurry, yet everything is accomplished.

WORKING WITH THE SEASONS
I provide seasonal cut flowers and foliage for collection or delivery from April through to October.
The majority of flowers are grown outside and my product is truly seasonal. From large branches of blossom in spring and tree foliage for installations through summer and autumn to spring bulbs, dainty annuals and robust perennials for bouquets and arrangements from April to October we grow to suit all requirements.
The flowers and foliage available change with the seasons and from year to year making the mix available each week unique and inspirational.
Find out what’s growing and book ahead to order your blooms.
WANDER THE FIELD
TIP TOP CONDITION
The field is laid out in 1 metre wide planting beds with hedgerows and shrubs located to provide shelter as well as foliage for customers. Plants are grouped by type and time of flowering to maximise efficiency.
I'm lucky enough to have sandy loam soil which is lovely to work with. I use a range of organic fertilisers, compost and soil improvers to keep the soil in tip-top condition as it is a key ingredient to plant growth and flowering providing the essential nutrients that are required alongside water, sunlight and warmth.
NATURAL CYCLES
I work with the natural rhythm and cycles of nature to grow beautiful blooms.
It all started with a small poly tunnel in the corner of a 1.75-acre field at Wressle near Howden. I've gradually expanded and by year 4 was utilising the whole field for my flower-growing business. The latest addition is a larger polytunnel that will help to increase the range and quantity of flowers available early in the season. Something to look forward to in 2024.
