About

Hullo I’m Gill Hodgson If you’ve recently lost someone very dear and are looking for the best flowers for the funeral, then I’d love to help. I’m in the East Riding of Yorkshire. If that’s not your area then do look at www.farewellflowers.co.uk to find someone closer. I’ll use flowers I’ve grown myself wherever possible, and I never use floral foam. 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.
