The Flower Shop Series will take students through the workflow of running a flower shop in a simulated environment. This business management program is intended for students interested in working in a flower shop and learning necessary skills, including wrapping orders for delivery, managing orders and having an authentic flower shop experience. All students will learn to write a business plan to put their ideas in motion. Students will learn these skills through classroom teaching as well as hands-on practice taking & fulfilling orders. If you are interested in working toward a career as a florist, gaining confidence as a florist, or just practice in making professional arrangements, this program is for you.
