06 May 2025
Whether you're a seasoned gardener, a flower enthusiast, or simply looking for a delightful day out, the PYO flower farms in Devon and Cornwall offer a unique and delightful experience. Imagine wandering through vibrant fields, hand-picking your favourite blooms, and creating stunning bouquets to take home.
The best PYO Flower Farms in the South West
Devon
Located in Combeinteignhead, Newton Abbot, Amelia’s Flower Farm is a family-run farm, café, nursery and shop that is definitely worth a visit. The flowers are grown in a field that’s free from pesticides and chemicals, so you know everything is natural.
They grow a large variety of flowers, from heirloom to scented, and some more unusual flowers. The Pick Your Own (PYO) flowers costs £20 to fill a bucket (which they provide you with, as well as the secateurs). They can sell you the bucket for £1 to bring your flowers home in, or you can bring your own bucket to transport them.
They’re open from June to November from 10am - 4pm, so make sure you round your best friends up and book in your flower picking session. You can also bring your four-legged friends as they’re dog friendly!
The Secret Garden is situated in Cullompton and is only open to PYO flowers on certain days, so make sure you check ahead of time and book a place, as you may be disappointed. They also hold ‘Cream Tea and Flower’ days, so you can make a day of it and enjoy a homemade Devonshire cream tea!
They also hold a range of other workshops, like flower farming and flower arranging. There’s even a pressed flower workshop which is a lovely way to make pretty, sustainable cards. There’s also a ‘Pick a Posy and Perfume Making’ workshop which could be a nice activity for a Hen Party or a birthday.
Strawberry Fields has been all the rage recently on social media with their Tulip Fest! It’s a farm shop located in Lifton, which is well-known for pick your own fruit fields, but they also arrange various PYO flower events throughout the year.
In March, you can pick your own Daffodils, in April it was colourful Tulips. Next up, is the Lavender Festival which will be in full bloom in mid-June 2025! Wild flowers are available all through summer, and you can pick your own Sunflowers in late summer.
Strawberry Fields are also infamous for their Instagrammable sets around the fields, so it’s the perfect place to shoot some cute photos with the family.
Cornwall
Based just a five minute drive from Chiverton Cross, the Cornish Flower Patch is right in the heart of Cornwall and they’ve been growing flowers since 2016.
Offering varieties of flowers that you don’t see every day, you can PYO flowers during peak summer and the early autumn seasons. This can be pre-booked through their online shop.
Getting married soon? The Cornish Flower Patch also arranges wedding flowers, whether it’s decorating the venue or making bouquets for yourself and your bridesmaids. You can’t pick them yourself, but if you’d like some seasonal and locally grown flowers, this is a great option.
Petalon Farm offers visits to their regenerative farm for £245. This may seem quite pricey but it’s a whole experience with a schedule, and you’ll only need to pay a £50 deposit initially.
The experience starts at 7am and ends around 15:30pm. You’ll start with a quick introduction and be shown how to cut the stems of certain flowers. Then you’ll be free to roam around the farm and cut as many flowers as you’d like to arrange later on in the day. You then get taken on a tour around the wooded areas of the farm which takes you to around lunch time where you get served a three-course meal outdoors.
After lunch, you get to choose a vase from their selection, and learn how to arrange your flowers.
