Ep. 72: Inside The Flower Summit with Jessica Eckford-Aguilera: Celebrating Women, Flowers and Creativity in Australia
In this inspiring episode of The Backyard Bouquet Podcast, host Jennifer Gulizia sits down with Jessica Eckford-Aguilera, the visionary founder of The Flower Summit and Newcastle Food & Flower Markets in Australia.
Jessica shares how her lifelong passion for creativity and community led her to build one of Australia's most beloved floral destinations, complete with a flower market, café, and floral design school. That journey eventually blossomed into the creation of The Flower Summit, a global platform celebrating women in floriculture.
Together, Jennifer and Jessica explore:
🌸 Jessica's leap from corporate events to full-time floristry at just 23 years old
🌸 How Newcastle Food & Flower Markets grew into a thriving hub for education, weddings, and local blooms
🌸 The story behind The Flower Summit, a first-of-its-kind event uniting female florists, growers, and creatives around the world
🌸 Why local flowers and global collaboration matter more than ever
🌸 What attendees can expect when they gather in Newcastle, Australia in November 2026
If you love hearing stories of creativity, connection, and women building beauty through flowers, this episode will fill your heart with inspiration and new ideas for your own journey.
