VERIFIED, hands-on cut-your-own experience: guests are led into Poppy & Fern's working flower field within The Farm Byron Bay, given a growing/harvesting tutorial, then personally cut their own seasonal blooms to take home (product page: 'You will leave with a beautiful selection of un-arranged seasonal flowers chosen and harvested by yourself'). This is a private, pre-booked guided session (email [email protected] or purchase online), not a casual drop-in/self-serve field — priced at $650 AUD for up to 5 guests ($85pp extra), morning or sunset sessions, ~1-1.5 hours. Confirmed currently active: the product is listed live (add-to-cart enabled, not sold out) in Poppy & Fern's 2026-dated online workshop collection alongside other confirmed 2026 events, and their Facebook page shows a post from 2 days ago, so the business is genuinely operating now (checked 18 July 2026) — this resolves an initial concern that the standalone thefarm.com.au event page (which listed specific July-2022-dated Friday sessions) was stale archived content; the underlying private-session product itself is current. Kids must have their own ticket and be supervised by an adult (not a simple kid-friendly yes/no). Cafe/restaurant on site refers to the broader Farm venue (Three Blue Ducks restaurant, The Bread Social bakery, Baylato gelato), which sits immediately next to the Poppy & Fern shop. Not a duplicate of any existing listing — no Farm Byron Bay or Poppy & Fern entry currently in the directory list provided. Region fit confirmed as northern-rivers (consistent with existing nearby entries Farm & Co, Cudgen and Blueberry Fields, Brooklet).
