Cass was a Dairy Farmer for eleven years and previously an Event Manager for NZYF northern region, before turning her hand to flowers and retraining as a florist. Having grown up and worked outdoors in nature most of her life, she saw that she could utilize her agricultural background, while also trying a more eco friendly approach to the floral industry.
Cass loves animals- both big and small, if she’s not amongst the flowers, you’ll find her hanging with the honorary Flourish team members- dogs Pip & Rollo, and pet cows.
ABOUT
Flourish Events is a boutique, sustainably minded Flower Farm and Florist, with a bit of event planning and hire thrown in for good measure! Run by Cass Heath.
We use natural/reuseable materials wherever we can. Any product not used fresh is either dried/reused or composted. All wood used for our event hire products is made from locally sourced and milled wood. We are proudly Floral foam free and use sustainable floristry techniques.
90% of the product we use is grown seasonally on our flower farm in Oxford, North Canterbury. We use regenerative techniques and an organic approach to growing. Anything we cannot grow ourselves is sourced from other local growers.
We are members of Floral Collective Canterbury, which sells locally grown wholesale flowers direct to florists in Christchurch.
Flourish Events has a Flower Shop on our flower farm for all your daily bouquet needs. We also make our own cold pressed soap on farm which we sell in the shop, along with our resin homewares.
We are proudly #grownnotflown
