Spreading Kindness With Flowers
Clementines
“…we decided that instead of just choosing 4 or 6 people to each receive a big, lovely flower arrangement we would instead send a little something sweet to EVERY SINGLE PERSON AND ORGANIZATION you all nominated! So we set off today with a car full of flowers, a stack of cards (to tell each person who it was that nominated them) and a full bottle of hand sanitizer!” Dawn Huss @clementines_ga Mentioned: On the Hill Flower Farm

“…But then it dawned on us that we could perhaps SELL the flowers to not ONLY brighten someone’s day, but to also gather funds that we could then distribute BACK into the community to make an even bigger impact! Food banks are top of mind for us right now, so we quickly started promoting over Instagram and with the help of everyone we know who actively shared our goal –– we ended up raising nearly $7,000 in just an hour and a half!” Follow Lauren and Rachel @sweetrootvillage Mentioned: Floret and Vine, Wonder and Whimsy Events, Potomac Flower Wholesale, DV Flora
