I have been happily employed at Lockwoods for 4.5 years. I work in the production area in the spring, as well as the cut flower department in the summer and fall. I along with Traci and Becca make the fresh cut flower arrangements for the store, and for our cut flower subscribers. I also make many of the dried flower wreaths that are for sale in the late summer and fall. During the holiday time at Lockwoods, I help with making porch pots, wreaths, mailbox swags, arrangements and custom orders.

What I really love about the holiday season is the joy it brings to young people, spending time with family and friends near and far, and all the holiday treats!

I have been employed at Lockwoods for six years. Currently, I work in the production area, planting, watering, and supplying the store with the various annual plants throughout the spring and summer. During the month of October, I assist in decorating the store for Christmas and also assist in wreath and kissing ball arrangements. When it is not busy, I order and supply the store with pottery, hard goods, soils and fertilizers.

As for floral experience, I am one of the employees that picks flowers from our own cut flower fields and arranges them in jars to sell in the store. We also provide fresh floral arrangements, that are from our field, for bridal showers, retirement parties and various other celebrations.
