Flowers to the Folks
Flowers to the Folks supports community healing and wellness through the soul medicine of flowers.
Flourishing Connections
This program is in collaboration with local community space maker & florist, Alexandria (Zandi) Saleem, who has been working with community & flowers as joy, grief, and soul medicine for the last 6 years. Alexandria loves how the relationship between flowers, pollinators, & thriving ecosystems remind us of the complex ways that the beauty of flowers intrinsically supports human wellness, and our earth.
Flowers to the Folks supports:
- Flowers to the Folks creates spaces of refuge dedicated for personal and community wellness, inviting the nervous system to experience the beauty of flowers and regenerative ecosystems
