Dish the Dirt

From Bush Roses to Wildflower Advocacy – with Hannah Urquhart


Listen Later

In this episode of Dish the Dirt, I chat with the vibrant and driven Hannah Urquhart, whose journey into the world of flowers began with a love for agriculture and a deep curiosity about how things grow. After completing her agricultural science studies, Hannah joined Bush Roses in New South Wales, where she now works full-time, surrounded by the beauty and challenges of flower farming.

Hannah’s enthusiasm for Australian natives, her involvement with Wildflowers Australia, and her commitment to sharing knowledge are shaping her into a strong voice for the future of the industry. We talk about:

  • How her upbringing and education inspired her career in flowers

  • Life and work at Bush Roses — from early mornings to busy harvests

  • The unique beauty and value of Australian native flowers

  • Her role in Walk on the Wild Side, an event connecting growers and florists

  • Why collaboration and education are essential for the industry’s future

If you’re passionate about Australian-grown flowers, curious about how to start in the industry, or simply love hearing from people who are making a difference, you’ll find this conversation both inspiring and energising.
