We were thrilled to have Francoise Weeks and Jenn Ederer as guests for the second live taping of the BB Podcast during the BB Garden Style Workshop on April 2, 2019. The interview was structured as a Q&amp;A with the audience of attendees at the end of the workshop day. Because the BB community is spread far and wide and couldn’t all be there with us that day, we want to share the conversation with you! Francoise and Jenn shared their heartfelt ideas on:  efficient use of social media while forming and respecting boundaries people who have inspired and supported them during their careers overcoming fear how Jenn handled staffing as she scaled her business while growing over the years  Special Thanks We’d like to say a very special thank you to our BB Garden Style Workshop partners. We could not have accomplished this workshop and continued to fulfill the BB Garden Style mission without them. We’re incredibly grateful for their support and encouragement! Save the date…we’re doing it again on November 4-6, 2019 with three more flower friends who are anxious to share their knowledge while supporting the BB Garden Style initiative…Susan McLeary, Phil John Perry, and Holly Chapple!  Click here for details on the next workshop!   April 2019 Partners  Market 1023 Ten23 Photography Greenleaf Wholesale Oasis Floral Product Urban Rubbish Thistle Floral Design Moosefeathers Florist Bramble &amp; Bee Events to Remember The Queen Theatre Downtown Bryan Association Copy Corner  Live Podcast Production Team: Joel McGee | Chris Hoover | Landon McGee How to Connect with Botanical Brouhaha:  Blog Instagram Facebook BB Garden Style Workshop Series BB Garden Style Shop
