About Erin


Hello and welcome, my name is Erin Benzakein. 
I’m the flower obsessed founder of Floret, a small organic flower farm and design studio just north of Seattle Washington.

Before we go any further, there are a few things you should know about me.

First off, I believe in fairies…..for real.

I also love kale, I can’t eat gluten, I listen to rap and hip-hop while flowering, I swear like a trucker, I had my babies at home, I love exclamation points and anyone who uses them, I hate naysayers, I'm afraid of flying, I love passionate people, I believe anything is possible, I adore flowers, I savor every moment of making a bridal bouquet, I procrastinate terribly, I collect little elderly people and make them be my friends, I married my high school sweetheart, I LOVE being an entrepreneur and in my heart of hearts I believe flowers can change the world!

I started this blog as a cure for writers block and over the years it has certainly helped me find my voice. I'm still not sure where I'm going with it all but if you'd like to come along for the ride, I'd love to have ya!

Alright, let's do it then!


P.S. if you'd like to hear the back story on how this all got started along with a bunch of random, personal tidbits head over to Lotte&Bloom for a fantastic interview.
