The Floristry School

At The Flower Alchemist Floristry School Sussex, we want to give you the best learning experience that we can. Our classes are fun, informative, friendly and relaxed. Our teaching style is generous and thorough. With our depth of knowledge and experience, we will show you the correct techniques and mechanics needed for floral design. The floristry school caters for beginners through to advanced learning. All materials are included in the courses.

Whether you’re a group, a couple or just you, we offer various courses throughout the year using locally sourced flowers where possible, all set at our studio in the beautiful East Sussex countryside.

Let us encourage, inspire and help give you a mindful experience at our wonderful Sussex Floristry Studio.

Our Floristry School is closely located to the mainline train to London (Robertsbridge) and we also run a bed and breakfast onsite if you would like some mindful time away from it all. Follow the link: www.slidesfarm.co.uk to book a room.

What People Are Saying

 
 

Thank you, Lucinda, for a wonderful peony workshop. You made it such great fun and we learnt so much from your floristry tips. Pimms and chocolate cake too! We are definitely coming back for another session, not to be missed! My arrangement survived the trip home without any problems and I'm delighted that your workshop was so generous in every respect.

“Thank you so much to Lucinda for a brilliant workshop. We were shown how to select, prepare and tie our flowers to make a spiral tied bouquet. It was lovely to spend a morning in a flower-filled room and have a beautiful bouquet to take home. Thank you also to Sugar and Spice Cakes for bringing delicious cupcakes’”

— Emma

 
 

“My friend and I travelled down from London and arrived in a beautiful quintessential part of East Sussex.  A gorgeous workshop tucked away on a farm in Mark Cross where we were greeted by the lovely florist Lucinda. We were so impressed with the wonderful choice of flowers we could work with. Lucinda was extremely friendly, attentive and taught us the skills to make our beautiful bouquets. The early start from London was so worth it and the yummy cake and tea after was a real treat. I highly recommend the workshop and will be booking again with friends.”

“Couldn’t be a much better way to spend a drizzly Saturday morning than at the studio of The Flower Alchemist learning how to make a hand-tied bouquet. An abundance of beautiful blooms and Lucinda’s inspiring, patient teaching – pretty pleased with the results. Added nous of cupcakes from the talented Sugar and Spice Cakes – such a treat!”
