Mother's Day is quickly approaching! If you're thinking of gifting a dog loving mom in your life a bouquet here is a great graphic from our friends at Veterinary Health for some pet safe and toxic flowers.

Be sure to keep your pets healthy by researching which flowers and plants are safe especially if you have a curious dog or one who likes to graze through a garden.

See the full Flower Moon on May 5th. 🌸🌕🌝
The fifth full moon of the year is known as the Flower Moon according to the teachings of the 13 Grandmother Moons and the Ontario Native Literacy Coalition where the naming of the moons also has a cultural teaching that explains the cycle of life and nature within the Indigenous cultures of Turtle Island. The moon will reach its peak 1:34 p.m. EDT.

During the Flower Moon, all plants display their spirit sides for all the world to see. This life-giving energy is one the most powerful healing medicines on Mother Earth. During this moon, we are encouraged to explore our spiritual essences.

The naked truth about a florist:

We love flowers.
We love every aspect of the flower. The journey it makes to our shops and allows us to participate in its journey.
And along the way, florists get our share of nicks and nacks - not just in our backs.

The lugging and lifting of floral creations, supplies, and oh those water buckets!

The stripping and snipping of thorny stems, slicing their way into our skin.

The late night designing.
The early morning deliveries.

The all day standing and working on our feet.

The last minute wish to grant.
The desire to make dreams come true.

The head bumping, hand cutting, knee breaking moments we ignore.

We work through concussions, bleeding fingers, swollen limbs, and our own heartbreak.

Being a florist means to do for others, create memories, and most importantly deliver messages of love, comfort, and healing.

The petals and oils of healing pass through our fingers keeping our spirits lifted.

However underneath the smiles, and beneath the fabric of our aprons is where we must care.

So often we neglect our own needs to get an order done.
We honor that working with flowers is precious, perishable, and priority.

Our hands, our backs, our knees, our legs, our families, our life…we wouldn’t want it any other way but we do need to keep ourselves healthy to keep make it another day.

Tomorrow more work will call our name and this past week - Valentines filled our days.

This weekend I wish all florist time to refresh themselves in rose petal baths and hydrating beverages.

Valentine’s Day takes a toll on the body. After years in this industry, I am now tending to repair my own wear and tear.

It’s not a a job it’s a calling.

The eve of Valentine's Day is always a mad rush for flower shops, but inflation is causing the product to be more expensive than ever before.
