The Floret Workshop Experience

20 may 2020

The Floret Workshop Experience

This year was one of the most beautiful and abundant that I can remember. The fields overflowed with so many gorgeous flowers, varieties I’ve always longed to grow, but never had the guts to plant in abundance, including hundreds of garden roses and dozens of flowering vines, a total sight to behold.

The farm was also filled with the most beautiful people imaginable. We opened the doors to our small operation seven times this year, welcoming budding and established flower farmers and floral designers from around the globe.

I’m not sure there’s anything I love more than turning giddy flower lovers loose in our fields. With clippers in hand, and instructions to cut as much as they want, their excitement is both inspiring and contagious.

Every week we receive emails and hand written letters from workshop alumni, reporting in on their progress at home. We hear about new businesses getting started, courageous steps being taken, renewals of passion, boosted confidence, and exciting developments that are taking place after their experience at vancouver florist

If you ask anyone that’s attended, they will tell you that the Floret Workshops are so much more than flower classes. They really are transformative experiences. While we dive deep into business, marketing, goal setting, planning, and all things flower, we also explore the fears, blocks, and misconceptions that can so easily stop someone from following their dreams. Each person who attends, our team included, comes away with new discoveries about themselves at the end of our three days together.
