Flowers Just Because

image 7 768x1024 - Flowers Just Because

What a year 2020 has been. Every single one of us has had to dig deep, find our strength and resilience and feel so many emotions as we have navigated this whirl wind of a year. Who could have predicted that this year would bring on this life altering pandemic which has effected the world and so many people in so many different ways.

Luckily, we humans are resilient and have shown that we can pivot to get through just about anything that life throws at us. Sometimes it takes a bit more time to adjust to our new normal. And sometimes we may have found that this new way of functioning has brought about unexpected surprises. Whatever it might be, just know you can get through it!

Our flower shop was challenged during the pandemic, like many other small businesses. We had to pivot and think outside the box to re-establish our business in a different direction. With that came our farm stand that has grown into something we couldn’t have ever imagined! We had challenges, but most of all we had community support and the BEST customers buying from our little front yard flower market.

With winter upon us and the change of seasons, we are ready to take on what the rest of the year has for us and what the new year will bring us! We, as always, truly believe that a fresh bouquet of flowers brings joy, comfort and more colour to you or a loved one’s life in the best way possible.

With the second wave in the future, it is still unknown what it will bring our way. We will be taking it day-by-day and thinking of you all as we do so. May many blessings come your way over the holidays while you spend it with loved ones, taking in the moments, whether that be in your bubble or over FaceTime or Zoom!

This years holidays may look a little different. We believe that bringing joy into your home is the perfect way to celebrate in your space. We offer many different options of wreaths, bouquets and flower arrangements that will fill your homes with smells of the outdoors and vibrant colours. Send us a message! We are more than happy to help in any way to bring more joy to your holidays. Flowers are a simple gesture to uplift spirits around this time of year.

The Effects of Covid-19 on Small Business

90635109 1092989474403064 688750241305853952 n 1024x682 - The Effects of Covid-19 on Small Business

Small businesses is what brings so much charm to where we call home in Victoria, BC. Much of Victoria’s businesses are built around small businesses. From many many locally owned coffee shops on every corner and tucked into every neighbourhood to kids consignment shops and artisan shops. Small business is what makes this city so unique. Victoria government has implemented many initiatives for locals to support businesses around the city. Folks that live here are all about supporting the small in anyway possible.

This month has changed it all. Covid-19 Pandemic aka Coronavirus has put a halt to business in and around Victoria, as well as throughout the world. Cancellations, isolation and closing regulations have put a hold on business for the next few months, but we are left wondering how long it will effect our small business, and family.

We worked with Chelsea Smith from Vintage Chic Photography in her project to show the families behind the small businesses all while keeping her distance. Like Chelsea, a full-time boudoir photographer, owners of small businesses have had to put their professional life on hold through the pandemic. She came to Foxgloves headquarters to help show the story behind the business through photos of our family.

She has found a creative way to fill time and spread joy by bringing the Front Steps Project to Victoria (a photographer in the States had started it and she found it on Facebook and decided to start it in Victoria).
