I learned a ton by osmosis. As a result, at various jobs I was always the go-to girl for arranging flowers on the table, creating artwork, and tending the blooms.<\/p>\n<p>When I started working in a traditional florist shop, I missed the fragrance and variety of the flowers grown at home. This kind of reminded me of when I was a child and I had the 12 pack of pencil crayons, but I really wanted the 24 pack.<\/p>\n<h3>As a creative and a lifelong learner, I wanted to grow those flowers with delicious colours, romantic movement, and soul- stirring fragrance.<\/h3>\n<p>As a result, I\u2019ve invested a lot of time, energy, and money searching the globe for these rare blooms and have acquired the skills to grow them successfully. Now I am thrilled to be using these exquisite flowers to create our signature floral designs. Whether it&#8217;s for a wedding, a corporate event, or our enthusiastic flower club fans, our arrangements are custom made for your needs.<\/p>\n<h3>From the smallest boutonniere to a large scale floral installation, our designs are fresh, unique, and rooted in time and place.<\/h3>\n<p>When our family isn&#8217;t doing all things flowery, you\u2019ll find us enjoying snow-sports on the slopes in the winter, exploring local trails in the spring, dipping (skinny!) in the lakes in the summer, and foraging for chanterelles in the forest in the fall.<\/p>\n<p>***We are a home based floral design studio and micro farm, open by appointment only. Although we work from home, we abide by business hours, and ask that you respect the same.<\/p>\n<p><em>We welcome diversity not only in the floral and fauna at our micro farm, but also the beautiful diversity of humanity in our world. As such, we welcome and support all individuals and celebrate their personal expression. We are guided by curiosity and kindness, and strive to work in a culture of respect and inclusion.<\/em>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_text_separator title=&#8221;Our farm&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;]<figure class=\"vcex-image vcex-module\"><div class=\"vcex-image-inner wpex-relative wpex-inline-block\"><img width=\"1536\" height=\"2048\" src=\"https:\/\/www.twiggageandbloom.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_0438.jpeg\" class=\"vcex-image-img wpex-align-middle\" alt=\"Twiggage &amp; Bloom Flower Farm\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.twiggageandbloom.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_0438.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.twiggageandbloom.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_0438-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/www.twiggageandbloom.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_0438-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.twiggageandbloom.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_0438-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" \/><\/div><\/figure>[\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;]<figure class=\"vcex-image vcex-module\"><div class=\"vcex-image-inner wpex-relative wpex-inline-block\"><img width=\"1536\" height=\"2048\" src=\"https:\/\/www.twiggageandbloom.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_2768.jpeg\" class=\"vcex-image-img wpex-align-middle\" alt=\"Dog\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.twiggageandbloom.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_2768.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.twiggageandbloom.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_2768-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/www.twiggageandbloom.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_2768-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.twiggageandbloom.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_2768-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" \/><\/div><\/figure>[\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;]<figure class=\"vcex-image vcex-module\"><div class=\"vcex-image-inner wpex-relative wpex-inline-block\"><img width=\"1536\" height=\"2048\" src=\"https:\/\/www.twiggageandbloom.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_2907.jpeg\" class=\"vcex-image-img wpex-align-middle\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.twiggageandbloom.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_2907.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.twiggageandbloom.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_2907-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/www.twiggageandbloom.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_2907-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.twiggageandbloom.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_2907-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" \/><\/div><\/figure>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;143&#8243;][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=&#8221;136&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text] Hi, my name is Alexandra, but you can call me Lexi.
