CELEBRATING ‘MUMS" AND SPECIAL 'SOMEONES’ THIS MOTHERS DAY

Given the past year’s events and the ad-hoc, often tumultuous lock downs, the COVID19 pandemic has reconnected us with the importance of social bonds - be they family, friend, community or nation! 

This year Mother’s Day falls on Sunday the 9th of May and what better chance to tell your mother, grandmother, aunty, wife, friend, neighbour just how much they mean to you?

With rules being rewritten across the globe, the way in which we work, play, shop, connect and communicate is evolving daily. We have had to stop, reflect upon and rethink virtually every facet of our daily lives, often necessitating that we reach out not just to mum but to many of the other special ‘someone’s’ in our lives.

So this Mother’s Day, Farmgate Flowers Direct have said “let’s not just celebrate Mum but all those other ‘Mum’ figures” in our homes, neighbourhoods, communities who have helped guide us - our grandmothers, aunties, sisters, sisters-in-law, mentors, neighbours and friends. Let’s use this wonderful opportunity to remind those ladies in your life that they are special and important to you.

This Mother’s Day, make time to take Mum or your special someone, for a stroll and discover a market stall at your local Farmers Market. It may offer her a special celebration feast, a sweet treat to fill a picnic basket or a sea of green, farm-fresh flowers to fill her home, providing valuable support to a local small business, artisan, craftsperson or farmer in her community!
