site Q: Why did you want to start this kind of business? A: I attended Cumberland Valley High School where I was a member of Cumberland Valley FFA. While in my senior year, I took a plant science class. One of the sections of the class was “floriculture” where we learned all about floral design, corsages, boutonnières and all of the flower arrangements for our annual banquet.
And I absolutely adored it; it felt natural. I always had a affinity for flowers, which I attribute to my nana. So this year, I took the chance and started floral designing professionally.
Q: How did you get your start? A: I truly just went for it. My partner is also a business owner; I truly couldn’t have done it without his constant encouragement and support. Q: What does your business sell or provide? A: Flowers for every occasion: special.
