Pick your own flowers on a Kent farm
Wander around our beautiful flower field and pick whatever catches your eye
Wander around our beautiful flower field and pick whatever catches your eye
We grow local flowers without pesticides or weedkillers on our beautiful Kent farm.
The 2024 pick your own flower season has begun! I am open on Fridays and Saturdays from 10am to 4pm (last admission 3pm) through to the middle of October. No need to book but please check the website before you head off in case of unexpected closure or updates on what is available
When you arrive choose from four container sizes - the Jam Jar (£10), Small Flower Bucket (£12), Slim Flower Bucket (£20) or Large Flower Bucket (£40). Pick your flowers into the bucket and either transfer them to your own container or take the bucket home for a few extra quid. When you have finished picking, we can take payment in the field either by cash or card.
Cosmos and dahlias are in their prime now along with ammi, snapdragons, zinnias and sunflowers. Sprinkles grass, achillea and sunflowers too. We're busy sowing for next season and will soon be planting camassia and narcissus bulbs.
British flowers are having a boom time - and it’s a good thing too. More and more people are seeing the appeal of flowers grown in season and within a few miles of home rather than flown in from thousands of miles away.
Here at Mitchell Flower Farm near Sevenoaks in Kent we are passionate about growing flowers naturally. We grow without chemicals and use peat-free compost to enrich the sandy-clay soil of the land our family has farmed for four generations. In my 'other life' as a gardening journalist, author and designer I have spent years building up knowledge about growing plants so it is a real pleasure to be able to take this back to the family farm.
Everyone loves fresh flowers in their home but there is something especially fun and beautiful about putting together your own selection. Feel free to wander the rows at leisure, snips and bucket in hand, and let your imagination go wild.
We can’t wait to welcome you to pick your own flowers.

When you turn up choose from four bucket sizes, the Jam Jar, Small Flower Bucket, Slim Flower Bucket or Large Flower Bucket. The Jam Jar is £10 and ideal for kids or for tabletop flowers and the jar (with lid) is included. Bring it back for a refill for £8. The Small Flower Bucket is £12 and is perfect for shorter-stemmed flowers like sweetpeas, calendula, nigella and cerinthe. You can pack a lot in to give you enough for a couple of tabletop bases. The Slim Flower Bucket is £20 and will give you enough stems for a beautiful bouquet or several small ones. The Large Florist Bucket is £40 which will fit even more stems, giving you one massive showstopper bouquet or several smaller ones.
For a small additional payment take your Flower Buckets home with you - ready for your next visit! Add £3 for a Small Flower Bucket, £5 for a shiny metal Slim Flower Bucket and £4 for a plastic Large Florist bucket. Alternatively transfer your cut flowers to your own container in the car.
After you have picked your flowers, we can take remote payment in the field.
