Ep. 80: Lauren Palmer + Leah Palmer (The Wild Mother)

Today we're visiting with Lauren Palmer & Leah Palmer, owners of The Wild Mother located in the Arts District, Downtown Oklahoma City, Oklahoma on Kickapoo, Osage, Wichita, & Comanche land. We're grateful for the opportunity to continue the conversation we began in Episode 70. Today we're digging a little deeper on some of the ways Lauren and Leah lead The Wild Mother to use their artistry for #morethanjustflowers (as they like to say). Join us as we talk about: the legacy work they feel strongly about carrying on the anti-racism curriculum they developed for discussing systems of injustice in America how they find ways to celebrate, remember, honor, grieve, and educate through their floral medium how they will flower with purpose as collaborators of the Tulsa Race Massacre Centennial Commission to memorialize the 1921 Greenwood Massacre ways we, as floral creatives, can join The Wild Mother in offering healing gestures using flowers GoFundMe for #SendFlowersTo Greenwood LINKS MENTIONED IN EPISODE 80: Lay of the Land | An Online Course for Creatives on Building Affirming, Equitable, and Just Brands LEARN MORE ABOUT THE WILD MOTHER HERE: Website | Instagram | Facebook The Botanical Brouhaha Podcast is brought to you by: BLOOM TRUST CO.
