When the untamed beauty of the outback meets the delicate touch of an artisan florist, the magic happens.
We are thrilled to announce an exclusive collaboration between Callubri Station and Kenya Rose for a one-day immersive workshop that celebrates your creativity through the lens of nature and floral design.
Kenya Rose is renowned for her romantic, handmade aesthetic and her belief that flowers are a universal language of joy. Now, she brings her signature style and deep passion for detail to our rustic outback station for a creative experience like no other.
