Making the world a beautiful place, one bouquet at a time

This past week, someone told me that my job is to inject some color into the world.

To build something truly exciting for people to experience. Something they can get involved with.

This guy’s a motivational speaker, of sorts.

He doesn’t know me. He knows that I own a business, but he doesn’t know what kind of business.

He doesn’t know that I have a FLOWER farm.

Know what he said next?

That it’s my job to create beauty. A beautiful business.

And I was like, dude, that’s LITERALLY what I do!

I grow FLOWERS.

What’s more beautiful than a flower?

Flowers are the secret to happiness.

I’m SO LUCKY because I get to make the world BEAUTIFUL.

And I get to share that beauty with you!

And then you share that beauty with someone you love.

And you take that beauty home with you.

Flowers make the world beautiful.

My world. Your world.

THE WHOLE WORLD.

THANK YOU for being part of this beautiful farm.

For bringing your friends and family to pick flowers.

For telling people about this farm.

For choosing to support my flower farm.

For helping me make the world more beautiful.

You make all the hard work, long hours and even occasional tears worth it.
