You Pick flower events
Pick your own flowers in Te Puke
This year Funky Foliage Gardens — a flower farm on No. 2 Road, Te Puke — will be hosting You Pick flower events on Saturday mornings and Friday and Saturday evenings. Grab a friend or a carload and come and experience the joy of picking fresh flowers in the Bay of Plenty. No weeding required.
Book a sessionBookings are essential
Bookings are essential as we are weather and flower-production dependent. All You Pick events will be announced on Instagram and Facebook, and booked on the booking page.
Charge — $2 per stem for as much as you want to pick.
What’s included
- A quick discussion on how and which stems are ready for picking
- Pick from any row of flowers you wish
- Picking time 1.5 hours (early morning and late afternoon are the best times for picking flowers)
- Picking bucket and snips provided
- For younger children, we have rounded snips available, but please ensure children are supervised or strapped in a stroller when on site
This is a working flower farm
Please be aware there are bees on site and uneven ground, so good footwear is required. We encourage you to bring a bucket to transport your flowers home. Looking for flower picking near you in the Bay of Plenty? Book a session before you come.
