Our business is called Lily’s Field, we are flower farmers based in St. Mullins, Co. Carlow. We have been trading at Carlow Farmer’s Market since 2018.
Saturday morning at the market is relaxed and friendly, there is always time for a chat and a laugh with customers and fellow stall holders.
We trade from late March to the end of September and also in the run up to Christmas each Saturday in December.
Our fresh flower season starts in late March when our autumn planted bulbs come in to flower – Narcissi and Anemones are soon followed by tulips and Ranunculi. During this time we are also busy sowing seeds that will provide our extensive range of beautiful brightly coloured flowers all summer long.
Seasonality is at the core of our business and we place a strong emphasis on protecting the natural environment. We keep our business local and avoid using harmful pesticides on our crops.
In addition to our beautiful fresh flowers we also sell dried flower arrangements, bouquets and wreaths etc.
To supplement our fresh flower business we also sell dried flowers and a small number of plants, cards and other flower related products, all of which are available on a Saturday morning at our stall or alternately can be purchased through our website http://www.lily’sfield.ie
It goes without saying (but say it anyway) that we particularly enjoy our mornings at the market – it’s a very positive experience for us as we have many loyal customers who visit most Saturdays.
Should you have any floral requirements we would be delighted to meet you at the stall, or you can call us on 086 4031052 or email shirley@lilysfield.ie. Examples of our work can be viewed on Instagram and Facebook
