The Floral Dream

Olivia McCord is a passionate home gardener, freelance writer for gardening magazines, and the founder of Crawford Road, a cut flower seed business. After starting her career in beauty marketing, Olivia discovered her true calling when she transformed a bare land project into an organic kiwifruit orchard and edible flower farm. A self-taught gardener, Olivia later gained qualifications in horticulture and has built a career around growing and arranging flowers. Now, she shares her knowledge to inspire fellow gardeners. A busy mum of two, Olivia enjoys rural life, growing and cooking with seasonal produce, and studying garden design through the English Gardening School in London.
