Alchemy Farm

I was fortunate enough to attend one of Alchemy Farm's Mason Jar Posie workshops. It was such a treat to spend the morning with Ingrid! This workshop offered so much... There was a phenomenal garden tour, then freedom to wander and harvest our own flowers to work with in her barn studio space. To top it off there was a splendid cup of tea and tasty cookies. I look forward to attending more workshops!

An elegant little stand where everything is simply perfect. There is much to choose from besides the usual selection of (in this case outstanding) fruits and veggies. I love the homemade apple cake and the Matrimony Jam, to say nothing of the flowers--fresh and vibrant, the nicest I have found on the island.

Thank you Ingrid for the lovely Alchemy Farm's Mason Jar Posie workshop. This was truly a beautiful experience. This is not only a flower bouquet making workshop, I learnt so much about flowers, plants from details about the species to the care needed, etc. The fragrance of the flowers is mind blowing (I’m a city girl), I felt like an alian arriving on earth and smelling a flower for the first time, I've never smelled such fragrance in any florists or places before. The tour of the flower farm and tea and biscuits in the workshop was just so charming. What I particularly enjoyed is the level of passion and knowledge from Ingrid but also her love and respect for the environment. Her energy is clearly guenuine which makes the experience even more special. I would highly recommend booking the workshop, you get to leave with amazing flowers and feeling happy.

Ordered flowers for a friend. Website is easy to navigate and place orders, then I got follow up email asking about writing a note and best delivery time. The flowers were delivered on time with my notes hand written. It was a very pleasant experience. I highly recommend that place. Special thanks for Ingrid.

Ordered some flowers for my mother for her Birthday/Mother's day and unfortunately we were hit with a loss her mom at the same time. Not only were the flowers absolutely beautiful, but in addition Ingrid demonstrated empathy in being flexible around delivery and dealing with all my emails, and being a supportive voice!Outstanding flowers and outstanding service. Thank you!

My experience with Ingrid was so wonderful. She is so generous with her time and to her customers. She has a wealth of information and her flowers are absolutely beautiful. I’m so happy to have met her and look forward to coming back to do another workshop with her.

We celebrated our wedding on Saltspring this past September. Alchemy Farm Flowers provided us with the most stunning bouquets, corsages and centrepieces I've ever seen. Ingrid's genuine kindness and unique ability to make you feel so special compliments her creativity, extraordinary talent and passion for flowers, nature and energy. Alchemy did not just provide us flowers, they helped plan our colour scheme, nurtured seedlings for months leading up to our special day and spent hours putting together beautiful arrangements. If you have a special occasion coming up please reach out to Alchemy Farm, visit and participate in one of her many workshops, and support local. We are SO happy we did!

Ingrid is an awesome florist. The fact she uses local flowers whenever possible and arranged them is incredible. There a hit with my fiancée. Thanks Ingrid!

My son, Jamie, from Houston Texas, found you on the internet, ansd ordered Birthday/Mother's Day flowers for me along with a basket of bathing treats. Wow! What an incredible surprise for so many special reasons. The bouquet was simply BEAUTIFUL and truly UNIQUE. I am very, very interested in learning more about your workshops as I feel Jamie has introduced me to an experience that I want to continue. Thank you so much. The delivery man was a true gentleman as well.

I had the most beautiful day with Ingrid yesterday. I was gifted a one on one workshop with her on beautiful Alchemy Farm. Ingrid gave me a warm welcome and then a tour of her beautiful flower farm while cutting flowers for a fresh bouquet. She generously shared her knowledge of all the flowers with me and then showed me how she designs her signature bouquets with the flowers we had just cut. I then had an opportunity to go out and cut my own flowers for my own bouquet to take home. What a treasure that was! I wanted one of everything in bloom! Her Dahlias are magnificent to say the least and there are hundreds of them! We then enjoyed some snacks and wonderful conversation together. She then had me make my own bouquet with the flowers I had cut assisting me along the way with her technique and expertise. I cant stop smelling and gazing at the gorgeous flowers I came home with! I would recommend Ingrid and any of her workshops or private one on ones for anyone in love with flowers as it is surely something you will never regret or forget!
