Kea Weeks from Cloud Nine Flowers
Kea Weeks first began growing flowers while living in the Bay of Plenty, but a few years ago she and her husband, Greg, relocated with their children to a beautiful property in Fernside, North Canterbury, to turn their passion into a full-time flower farm. Committed to growing flowers the right way—slowly, sustainably, and with deep respect for the environment—Kea now supplies blooms to the Auckland UFG auction, online customers, and, most importantly, local florists. During the summer months, you can also find Kea at the Floral Collective Canterbury.
