Join us for our upcoming event with Brenna Estrada of Three Brothers Blooms.
As lovers of flowers and the pansy in particular, our hope is that you will find a renewed love and appreciation for this little bloom. Brenna’s seed stock is highly sought-after and she will be here to discuss her personal journey & history with these beautiful blooms, with books to sign (and, possibly some plants to buy!).
