If you didn’t know and are either looking for a new challenge, or have a job vacancy you need to fill, there is a jobs board on the market’s website.

Go to https://newcoventgardenmarket.com/jobs-board/today and you’ll find floristry job opportunities posted in the last few days by Mary Jane Vaughan Designs and The Glass House and a job in the world of fruit and veg The Menu Partners

These positions are all local to the market but we often have jobs further afield in the UK and overseas. We’d love more companies to post their vacancies and give professionals of all ages another place to find opportunity knocking!

Well, for most of us at the market, Sunday’s world cup final is not quite the endgame we wanted. But it has at least given us an intriguing market match-up!

You may remember that, after the first phase of group games, we asked people around the market who they thought would win the world cup. Well, everyone has fallen by the wayside except for Covent Garden Tenants’ Association (CGTA) Chairman Gary Marshall and the CGTA’s Secretary Ann Harding, who now lock horns on Sunday for bragging rights!

As the short and sweet film shows, Gary picked Spain and Ann plumped for Argentina, and their Hispanic crystal balls have come up trumps.

Who wins? There’s only one way to find out - watch the final at 8pm on Sunday.

Semi-finals bound!

After a huge win over Norway, England are just one step away from the final and the excitement is being felt across the market.

We’ve taken another look at some of the predictions from the market community to see who’s been calling England’s journey correctly so far... and there have been some impressive shouts!

Drop your predictions for the semi-final in the comments below!

Ahead of tomorrow’s big match, we thought it would be fun to look back at some of our predictions from last time and see just how accurate they turned out to be...

From score predictions to tournament expectations, there were a few hits, a few misses, and plenty of talking points along the way!

Wishing the England team the very best of luck - let us know how you think they’ll get on by comment your predictions for tomorrow’s game below!

We’ve all seen every team play once now, so which nation does the NCGM community think will win the world cup? Spoiler alert - there might be a few who think it’s coming home!! 

17/06/2026

The World Cup is about to start - well, for England fans anyway - and we asked a few people across the fruit and veg and flower markets to give us their answer to two questions:

1) How will England get on in the 2026 ?

2) Why?

We got some pretty mixed responses, as you might expect!!

Tune back in after the first round of matches finishes to find out who the market community thinks will win the World Cup - after they’ve had a chance to see every team play once.

.flowers.week was founded 13 years ago by New Covent Garden Market. It is now expertly managed and led by Flowers From the Farm, the UK’s leading trade association for independent flower growers.

We created the annual campaign to celebrate the wealth, variety, and sustainability of the UK’s cut flower industry; to champion local growers, wholesalers, and the florists who bring British blooms to life.

And while we have taken a step back and become supporter rather than organiser, we’re naturally delighted to see it getting the exposure it deserves - including a lovely piece on Radio 4’s BBC Woman's Hour yesterday.

According to Flowers From the Farm, small-scale growers now generate £30 million a year and women account for 80% of its members. Two of them, Olivia Wilson, a florist and flower farmer, and Georgie Newberry who has a flower farm in Somerset, feature on the programme, which you can listen to through the link in our bio

From all of us here in Nine Elms, best wishes to everyone celebrating and showcasing homegrown flowers this week!

Sweet peas are now well and truly in-season and Essex girl Liz from alongside other florists who visit the market are making the most of it.

Sweet Peas have been treating everyone at the market to their delicate scent, dainty petals, and cottage-garden charm.

From soft pastels and creamy whites to vibrant purples, rich pinks, and sunset shades, they are one of the most loved highlights of the floral season.

Their season is fleeting, but that only makes them more special.

Whether woven into a wild, romantic arrangement or gathered in simple bunches, sweet peas have their own effortless way of bringing movement, fragrance, and elegance to every design.
