My name is Valerie and I have been working with flowers since I graduated from TSTC's floral department. I worked for 10 years in the floral industry, I took a break, and I worked in the sales field for 26 years. I was let go after Covid, so when it was time to go back to work, my sons encouraged me to open my own flower shop. I had been doing flowers out of my home during this time but we wanted to open a store front. I wanted to visit with customers and have a place for customers to come in and pick up a gift.
