Welcome to Floral Therapy!
Floral Therapy came to life in 2021 as a way to shine a little light on the world around us in the depths of a global pandemic. I was in the hot seat of community healthcare, with many friends on the front lines. We needed a pick me up! I began putting together mason jar flower arrangements to share with those in desperate need of a little joy. It was a fun way to ground myself in the earth and get creative as well.
After the death of a loved one and a disappointing Get Well Soon order, I found myself determined to make elegant and heart-warming floral arrangements more accessible and more affordable to all. My daughters and I devised a plan and got to growing! We started the seeds, we divided the perennials, and we saved all the jars. In the beginning we were fueled by donations and driven by our desire to help others smile. We focused on brightening nursing homes and homeless shelters and providing budget friendly pick me ups to those in need.
Over the years, our passion project has grown. We became a legitimate floral company! We are now able to order more specialty blooms and buy in bulk so that we can make specialty flowers more accessible for our community. As a nurse, I recommend nature and grounding as an integral part of ones health. Gardening is a beautiful way to tend to mental health in particular, and I aim to make it as easy as possible for anyone to learn and succeed. Helping clients start their own gardens and grow flowers to be enjoyed on the plant, or harvested to enjoy in a vase is another way in which we spread joy.
We are excited to embark on this journey and are looking forward to working with you to brighten even the darkest corners.
Breathe in, bloom out!
