One small, but growing sector in farming is the British flower industry - flowers grown and sold here. Charlotte Myddleton's family have been florists for close to a decade and have always prized British grown flowers. But they didn't always find it easy to source locally grown flowers, which is how they began their growing journey. Now their six acres of farmland in Upper Broughton is devoted to growing flowers and foliage for weddings and events throughout the East Midlands and beyond. ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Leicester's Ben Jackson went to Leicestershire's Flower Farm to meet flower farmer Charlotte.
