Meet Victoria Goss, the brilliant local florist behind our upcoming workshops.

With a lifelong love of art, craft and the outdoors, becoming a florist was always a childhood dream. After studying Fine Art and spending more than 20 years working as a chef, she decided it was time for a change and turned Berry Blooms from a hobby into a full-time floristry business in Romsey.

She particularly loves running workshops, sharing her creativity and helping people make something they’re proud of. Take the opportunity to join Victoria at these upcoming workshops:

🍁 Autumn Wreaths - Sunday 11 October 2026

🎃 Pumpkin Flower Arrangements - Saturday 17 October 2026

🎄 Christmas Wreaths - Friday 4 December, Saturday 5 December, Sunday 6 December, Sunday 13 December 2026

Think you know what to do with a pumpkin? Think again! 🎃💐

Swap the carving knife for flowers and create something completely different at our Pumpkin Flower Arrangements workshop with the fabulous Victoria Goss at SeaCity Museum on Saturday 17 October.

You’ll get to turn a pumpkin into a beautiful autumnal centrepiece, with your own choice of arrangement and take home an autumn decoration you won't find anywhere else.

We’d love to see you there. Don’t miss out!
