About

Hullo I’m Gill Hodgson After some 16 years of growing and supplying flowers as a keen flower farmer in the East Riding of Yorkshire, I'm gradually turning myself back into just a gardener. Growing and selling flowers has taken me from a stall at my local farmers’ market to two Gold medals at RHS Chelsea Flower Show and an MBE for services to floristry. I’ve been named Mentor of the Year at the Northern Power Women Awards and seen my own flowers in Westminster Abbey at the King’s coronation. 2021 saw me celebrating the 10th anniversary of Flowers From The Farm, the organisation I founded and whose great website you’re now exploring. It's given me wonderful times and made me some fabulous friends. If you're thinking of becoming a flower farmer - do it! If you've bought my flowers, chatted with me at shows, listened to one of my talks or been here to PYO, then I'd like to say a sincere thank you for your company. x
