Some opportunities are more than just a class—they’re dreams realized. 🌿
This week, our lead designer, Gretchen, had the incredible opportunity to learn from internationally acclaimed floral artist and botanical designer Francoise Weeks
For years, Françoise’s work has been a source of inspiration for Gretchen. Her innovative approach to botanical design, her use of natural materials, and the way she transforms flowers into works of art have influenced designers around the world.
To see Gretchen experience this in person—to walk through Françoise’s garden, spend time in her studio, and learn directly from someone she has long admired—was incredibly meaningful.
At Moose Lake Florists, we believe that the best way to serve our community is to never stop learning. Investing in education, creativity, and our team means bringing fresh ideas, new techniques, and inspired artistry back home to every arrangement we create.
We’re so proud of Gretchen for embracing this opportunity, and we can’t wait to see how this experience inspires future designs in our shop.
A heartfelt thank you to Francoise Weeks for so generously sharing your knowledge, creativity, and passion. It was an unforgettable experience.
Here’s to honoring our roots, investing in our people, and always continuing to grow. 🌿
Gretchen, thank you for always pushing yourself creatively and for bringing that inspiration back to our team and our community. We are so lucky to have you. 🤍
