Simon Meet The Maker:

We’ve long adored Simon May as a customer, but after interviewing him to be our next featured maker, it’s safe to say we are full-on Simon and Spruce Flowers super fans.

Amidst Covid, Simon decided it was time to pursue a lifelong passion and bravely bought Spruce Flowers. When he acquired Spruce, like many small businesses during the pandemic, the outlook was bleak. But Simon worked tirelessly and devotionally to see Spruce bloom. He and fellow co-owner, Dean Miller, have created a business that puts particular care into the care of flowers. They treat their arrangements with so much TLC that their bouquets last longer than others on the market (usually about one week). Plus, you can pick from over a dozen carefully curated arrangements on their website, and Spruce will even send you text updates about your bouquet as its being arranged.

Listening to Simon explain plant care reminded us how life-giving following your dreams can be. And who doesn’t love a kind soul with a delightful British accent? Leaving a conversation with Simon, it’s hard not to notice a feeling of revitalization … perhaps like a wilted flower brought back to full bloom.
