WORKSHOPS
Workshops are very popular and not just around Christmas time when wreath making classes are in great demand. There is increasing evidence that Workshops have a significant beneficial effect on Health & Wellbeing. As a result, there is a flourishing appetite for them all year round.
Carole runs both face-to-face and online workshops. Face-to-face workshops have obviously not taken place during lockdown (COVID-19). However, we hope to re-establish them later in the year when safe to do so. By contrast her online workshops using Zoom have been very popular.

OUR BUSINESS
We are a family run studio-based florist, in Barnsley, South Yorkshire. We specialise in providing bespoke flower designs for all occasions. The giving and receiving of flowers are special moments in our lives. Moreover, flowers can contribute so much to both happy and sad occasions.
Choosing us as your florist gives you the opportunity to work with Carole to achieve your desired arrangements. In other words, your own bespoke arrangements. Bespoke to us does not mean expensive. It means giving you the choice and flexibility to have what you wish for. In other words, not being restricted by what is available in supermarkets, with certain online retailers, and even some high street florists.
Of course there are some limitations to being bespoke not the least of which is the seasonal availability of some flowers – and this likely to become more significant post-COVID-19. However, the positive side of this is the anticipation of each season’s offerings.
Cost does have a bearing on the ultimate outcome of your individual requirements because quality flowers are not cheap. Furthermore, independent florists do not have the bulk buying power enjoyed by the supermarkets and other large chains.
However, for most people this is more than compensated for by the beautiful arrangements and the customer service that you will receive from us. In addition, we are renowned for the quality, variety and longevity of the flowers.
Please contact us and see what we have to offer you as an Eco Friendly Premier Florist.

‘Immerse Yourself In Colour While Staying Green’
Our aim at Wickham & Taylor is to reduce our impact on the environment as much as possible while still providing a top quality floral service.
We endeavour to use recyclable and biodegradable packaging wherever possible. For example, using paper and raffia instead of cellophane and poly ribbon to wrap our bouquets. In addition, we supply our customers with flower food which is in compostable packets. We can provide a vase and box replenishment service for regular customers. This enables them to get more value for money as a result of not paying for packaging.
Water retaining foam is used sparingly and where possible is bio-degradable.
The majority of flowers sold in the UK are imported which by association affects our carbon footprint. Where possible we try and offer our customers products that are grown in a more sustainable way. For example, by using British grown flowers when feasible we are both reducing our carbon footprint and helping to prolong the heritage of British horticulture. Supporting UK growers can really help rebuild the industry in this country. However, the availability of UK grown flowers can be limited, for example, when specialist flowers are required and at certain times of the year.
In addition, there are environmental benefits to the expansion of the UK flower industry which include increased biodiversity. For example, growing flowers across local farms and gardens gives much needed support to wildlife such as bees and butterflies.
