Community Involvement…Meet Harmony!

February 10, 2012 · Leave a Comment

Back in January one of the high school seniors in our community wanted to know if she could work with me for her senior project (each senior must complete a project to graduate, part of the project is volunteering and gaining hands on experience).  I believe it is important to get involved in the community I live and work in so I was more than happy to work with her.

Meet Harmony!  A mutual friend suggested that Harmony contact me and I am so glad she did.  It has been wonderful getting to know her over these past few weeks.  Harmony’s plan is to get a degree in business and potentially horticulture/botany at a 4 year university and then to hopefully attend an international floral design school.  She is currently attending a community college part-time as part of the local the running start program designed to complete some college credit as a high school student.

One of our first meetings we went to a local wholesaler to pick up flowers for one of my corporate accounts.  Here is a photo of Harmony with some of her favorite flowers…calla lilies.  Orchids are another of her favorites.  This weekend she will get a little hands on experience!  She is going to make the boutonnieres for her group of friends attending the Tolo dance at the high school.  We had a practice session earlier this week where she learned to make the boutonnieres and decided on the design of them.

Look for a blog post from Harmony soon.  She is going to share a bit about her experience working with Jen’s Blossoms!
