Our mission is to use floral and agriculture as a pathway to empower Chicago youth with hands-on-education , mentorship, and entrepreneurial skills- connecting the beauty of floral design with the business of growing, creating, and building within their communitites.

Each student will receive a 4-part youth floral entrepreneurship experience, that invites each cohort to learn what it takes to create, preserve, sell, and brand their own businesses. This initiative culminates a final showcase, where each student presents their art and business concepts to community , family, mentors and more!

Our first cohort begins October 24, 2026 - Join us Today!
