Long before I was a designer at the Northwest Flower and Garden show, I started as an attendee, marking up my catalog and planning my day around seminars and show gardens. I then became a volunteer, shadowing Lloyd and helping out wherever needed. Eventually, I stepped into designing show gardens, and this year I’m doing something new again. I’m speaking at the event for the first time and competing in Container Wars.
Today, I want to talk about my journey through the show and the important role it’s played in my life since moving to Washington. This episode kicks off a series we’re doing as we count down to the show. We’re about four weeks out, and over the next month, we’ll be sharing conversations with other designers, the people working behind the scenes, and reflections from our team as we prepare our next garden. If you’ve ever been curious about what the Northwest Flower and Garden Show is all about, or what it takes to create one of these gardens, this series is for you.
