The heart behind Botanical Love

Why do we do what we do?

FOR OUR CHILDREN * FOR THE LIFESTYLE * FOR THE LOVE

Okay, so what are we? We are a small, predominately online family business. It started with little old me having an idea, my lovely hubby cheering me on and my tiny human side kick helpers sticking close for the ride.

In the beginning it started with Botanical Love Skincare. I started making my own skincare when I realised so many toxic chemicals were hiding in the products that I had been using. My love affair with the supermarket stuff ended. I started by ditching the soap. I tried making my own and failed, many times over. Google and other experts became my friend and one day came my breakthrough. My next mission was to get rid of my petroleum filled lip balm, which I learnt was drying the heck out of my lips. One thing led to another...and another... and, you get the idea.

And surprise! I didn’t stop at skincare. I started a floristry course. Here I learnt that many flowers sold in the industry are grown overseas and flown in. I wanted to do better to reduce that carbon footprint and improve on the freshness and quality. So I started to grow my own, and fast-forward a few years…. My husband and I have turned our two-acre plot of land into a sustainable native flower farm that serves both our customers, and the local wildlife population. What we can’t pick enough of yet (some of our plants are still babes), we source from other local flower farms. We specialise in native flowers (Australian and South African varieties), and aim to always provide a range of colors and textures in every one of our bunches. The selection is constantly changing depending on what is in bloom. But what never changes is the quality. It is picked fresh from our farm, arranged and delivered on the same day.

So that is our story. I think it is safe to assume you can tell that I am passionate about what I do. And I do love to chat, but I will stop now. But seriously, thanks for sticking with me. I think it is important to know the heartbeat of the little local business that you choose to support. I personally see each order that comes through and I am appreciative of each and every one of them, as they are what allows me to continue doing what I love x
