We’re pretty much ready to get out of winter now, and with Manchester looking pretty grey at the best of times, we’re absolutely crying out for some colour. One thing spring brings is beautiful tulips, and although they grow pretty freely around Greater Manchester, there’s one place you can go and pick your own, take home and display in your very own space, and that’s Birch Farm Flowers in Salford.
Step into spring with Birch Farm Flowers’ delightful ‘Pick Your Own Tulips‘ session, a perfect escape after the long, dark winter. Over two hours, you’ll be guided through the beautiful tulip and daffodil beds, beginning with an informative talk about the stunning varieties they grow – and there are plenty. Learn about the unique characteristics of each tulip, then take your time wandering through rows of vibrant blooms, picking your very own hand-selected bunch.

Once you’ve gathered your blooms, the Birch Farm experts will guide you in crafting a simple yet elegant hand-tied vase arrangement to take home, a reminder of your time spent amongst the flowers. End the session with a sweet treat, and enjoy hot drinks and delicious homemade cakes with fellow flower enthusiasts – what could be better?
This is more than just a chance to pick flowers – it’s an opportunity to embrace the new season, celebrate growth, and surround yourself with beauty and peace, perfect for beginners and flower lovers alike.

This opportunity to connect with nature offers a rare appreciation for the earth and all it does, allowing you to embrace the springtime bloom and rejuvenate your senses after winter’s long spell. Learning from experts, you’ll gain insight into these beautiful flowers, creating some much-needed time out and a new area of expertise you wouldn’t otherwise get.
