Gather and Bloom Twilight Pick

21 Feb 2026 (+9 more)

Gather and Bloom Twilight Pick is a unique seasonal event at Bloom Into You Flower Farm. Just over one hour from Melbourne, this immersive twilight experience invites visitors to explore a boutique flower farm as the sun sets, gather their own blooms, and enjoy an evening of food, music, and connection in a serene country setting.

Stroll along grassy pathways lined with dahlias, zinnias, and cosmos glowing in the golden hour light. Breathe in the scent of fresh blooms and listen as gentle acoustic music drifts across the fields. Guests can elevate their evening with The Bloom Graze for Two, a premium picnic box, or relax at their styled Bloom Table for eight.

Perfect for Melbourne day trips and weekend getaways, this seasonal event offers stunning photography opportunities, hands-on floral activities and a memorable connection to Victoria’s rural beauty. Visitors are encouraged to linger, soak up the peaceful surroundings, and leave with a hand-picked bouquet as a memento of their evening.

As part of A Summer in Bloom, guests may also enjoy Brunch Among the Blooms, a premium long-table dining experience, or stay overnight at Villa Minto, a luxury accommodation overlooking the flower farm, to complete their country escape.

Numbers are limited to maintain an intimate feel. Early bookings are essential.
