Give Folx Their Flowers While They Are Still Here…

In 2023, my community buried multiple leaders and loved ones in just a few months time. My heart ached heavily. I was unsettled by the amount of online tributes and kind words that were shared: we never tell these people how much they mean to us when they are amongst the living.
I decided I wanted to give my loved ones their flowers while they were here. I wanted to honor our friendship; their dedication to holding me down, in my personal life but also as a co-conspirator and for the amazing contributions they make to our communities and to ensuring a just future. These amazing human beings are teachers, organizers, leaders, healers and most importantly, parents to the next generation of human beings.

Give Folx Flowers became a true labor of love. A brunch with delicious food, small tokens of appreciation and great company. With so many amazing women in one place, these spaces became a place of networking and relationship building.
Give Folx Flowers only happens once a year, but the joy is felt year round.
