My flower journey from the beginning…
Our story…
When I was just 11 years old my mom got me a book called ‘‘Cut Flower Garden’’ by Erin Benzakein. As soon as I started reading this book I was hooked and I couldn’t put it down. From there, I knew I wanted to pursue this dream and share the beauty of flowers with people.
I then became obessed and wanted to learn everything I could about flowers. I discovered a flower farming workshop, but it was expensive. I started fundraising and after almost a year, I finally was able to pay for the flower farming workshop. Now it’s been over 5 years since my love of flowers started. I’m so grateful for my parents who believed in me and have been supporting me through this journey. My mom has been learning alongside me the entire way and has helped bring my dream a reality. We are a mother/daughter, farmer/florist and have a flower farm located in Waialua on The North Shore of Oahu.
My hope is to share the magic and beauty of flowers with the world.
With love,
Belle.
Why I grow flowers…
Flower arranging is one of my favorite parts of why I grow flowers. I think of all of the work that goes into planting one flower seed and how I get to watch as it turns into the most beautiful flower. As the seasons change, I get to watch every stage of that flower bloom. When I'm arranging, I get to bring it all together, and turn all of the hard work into a beautiful flower arrangement. I like to think I’m catching this fleeting moment in time.
