Instructor
Skylark and Wren is a small flower farm and creative workshop studio on Inishbofin island owned and run by me, Patricia Concannon with the help of my family.
We offer flowers that reflect and respect nature.
I have experience in floristry, teaching and running workshops. In 2021 I enrolled in the Floret flower farming course. I am a member of Flower Farmers of Ireland and of the All-Ireland Pollinator Plan.
Seasonal and sustainable floristry which respects wildlife is very important to me. If I need to supplement my own flower stock, I buy from Irish flower farmers who have a similar ethos to my own. I never import flowers.
I run creative floral workshops in small groups which focus on fun, friendship, and the joy of having something natural and beautiful to take away. During the workshop we take a tea and coffee break with home bakes to enjoy.
Workshops include, a garden style bouquet, flower crowns, wreaths, starting a cut flower patch, seed sowing and pressed flower/ dried flower art. Private workshops may also be arranged.
I also take orders for flower bouquets and seasonal wreaths. During peak season bunches of flowers are available from our honesty box stand.
