Essex confetti fields: a new way to make farming pay

An arable farm is growing a more colourful crop of wedding confetti flowers, to draw in the public and make extra cash.

Hatter’s Farm on the Essex / Hertfordshire border has been welcoming children and adults to play and take photographs among the flowers.

Farmer Ross McGowan said he was “always looking at trying to grow other revenue streams” since farming became more challenging after Brexit.

After harvesting the flowers to sell as wedding confetti, local charities will be invited to gather the remaining bunches from Monday.
