From chaos to cutting garden.

See that overgrown mess? That’s our Safety Beach backyard.

But here’s what I see:
→ A little cutting garden producing flowers for Gathering Shores + Lola, friends and neighbourhood

→ Rows of ranunculus, sweet peas, dahlias

→ Bees pollinating everything

→ Workshops happening right here

→ A complete flower-to-stay ecosystem

Step 1: Cutting down trees, clearing years of overgrowth.

Next: Planning, building, planting.
Eventually: Fresh flowers in every booking.

This is the REAL beginning. Sweaty, hard work, no filters.

Why share this?
Because the same care we’re putting into this space? That’s what goes into Gathering Shores
and Lola.

Every detail matters!

From chaos to cutting garden. Follow along 🌸
