Episode 16: Siblings in Business Together with Liz and Tim Shea of Grow Wild Studios

In this episode, we sit down with Liz and Tim Shea of Grow Wild Studios at their beautiful design space in Malvern PA.  This sibling duo likes to joke that they accidently started a floral studio on purpose.  Liz, the artistic arm of the operation, had been working in a traditional flower shop and found herself bristling against the unsustainable practices and imports there.  She drew her brother Tim into her budding plans to launch a studio grounded in community, sustainability and locally-sourced materials so that he could be the logistics and spreadsheet guy.  Together they've built an impressive portfolio and business model in just three short years.  They see flowers as a media for telling rich and emotional stories as well as drawing people together for supportive community.   If you'd like to get a glimpse at Grow Wild's designs, find them on Instagram @growwildstudios.   This podcast is brought to you by the Philadelphia Floral Guild, a collective of flower farms in the mid-Atlantic region selling together to florist and other wholesale buyers.
