About Bloomistry – Cultivating Nature, Education & Community

Bloomistry was born from a passion for nature, sustainability, and the desire to reconnect people with the world around them. What started as a personal journey in beekeeping and flower farming has evolved into a mission-driven initiative to educate, inspire, and protect our environment.

Our founder, Conner Parrish, has spent years teaching garden and conservation-related courses, helping individuals understand the deep interconnections of nature. Through practical knowledge, hands-on experience, and community-driven efforts, we strive to make sustainability accessible to everyone.

At Bloomistry, we believe in paying it forward. A portion of our profits goes toward conservation projects, and we actively host free educational programs to spread awareness and empower change.
