Meet Emily
the artist behind root+stem
hello!
Iโm Emily
I have loved flowers ever since I was a little kid. I was the only 9 year old I knew that had her own flower garden growing in the backyard of our Northern California home. Fast forward a couple of years and I was working in a flower shop - sweeping up, scrubbing buckets and assisting customers, but I didn't do much more than process the flowers. Fast forward another lifetime and I was learning to design in another shop out in Western New York. It was there that I began doing wedding work. I was lucky enough to work with many events at the historic Chautauqua Institute. Only a few years later I was working in Napa Valley and in San Francisco, learning the ins and outs of weddings and events on a grand scale.
After a while I decided to move to a place where the grass is quite literally greener and took on weddings on my own terms. I am mostly a one woman show when it comes to events, unless I need extra hands based on how large the event is.

Our Values
quality
We have spent years researching what the best blooms are for events. What holds up in the heat, what lasts out of water. Root + Stem values quality and will make the extra effort to ensure that your florals are the best they can be.
locally grown
Whenever it is feasible Root and Stem will purchase flowers from local growers. We believe that the best quality often can be grown right down the road! As a small business we strive to support other small businesses as often as possible.
affordability
In a world where gas and grocery prices are constantly sky rocketing, we understand that florals for your event may not be the highest priority. However, at Root + Stem we will strive to make your floral vision a reality while making the effort to be economical as possible.
