I can't express how grateful we are for Conner at Bloomistry Garden Co. His dedication to educating the community about nature and flower health is truly commendable. Conner is incredibly patient during his visits to our facility, and it's evident that all our residents eagerly anticipate his activities. We're thrilled about his farm and the positive impact he's making in the community. Exciting times ahead for Bloomistry and the future under Conner's guidance.

I am the Lifestyle Director at Tuckahoe Pines Retirement Community and work with Conner very frequently on several different projects. Conner runs an outstanding business and is a pleasure to work with. He is creative, passionate, and most all, very patient with our residents. Our community loves having him here on a monthly basis to teach us the ins and outs of sustainability, flower farming, and all things nature. In addition to his well-prepared lectures/presentations, he leads several different craft projects to incorporate a hands-on learning experience. We look forward to continuing to work with Conner and would recommend his services to any and all who have interest.

Bloomistry Garden Co. has been working with my residents at Acclaim at Carriage Hill for two years now and providing them with lots of informational seminars regarding gardening and pollination. Conner has also provided some pretty neat crafts for them and they have enjoyed them very much. Conner is very knowledgeable about protecting and conserving nature. I would, without a doubt, recommend him to anyone!

Conner shared with me a wealth of knowledge about cut flower growing and sales - I greatly appreciated him taking time to speak with me and answer questions about starting my small business. He provided a valuable aspect on flower farming which I know will help me succeed. I highly recommend reaching out to him for help planning and managing your business!

Osher Classes (Art Classes) Reviews

A new creative experience for me. Conner seems to love teaching these classes. He works really hard to prepare for the class and to ensure everyone enjoys it.

Loved being able to make a beautiful wreath in an hour. Conner was great in guiding us in making our wreaths and at the same time allowing and encouraging our creativity. There was plenty of dried material to work with, which made it fun to experiment. We learned to use everything!

Informative, lots of fun, very interactive. It was exactly as advertised. He made the class fun as well as relaxing!

We pressed live flowers and chose dried flowers to decorate cards with. Conner provided helpful guidance and answered lots of questions as we did our “hands-on” work. He was extremely well prepared with materials, and very clear with instructions in a large group. We learned a lot and got to take home things that we made: a pressed flower greeting card and flower press with flowers.

Lifelong Learning Institute (Educational Courses) Reviews

Conner was well-prepared with excellent visuals and handouts to support his information. He was very patient with the multitude of questions from participants, and provided great explanations.

Excellent class - very informative; Conner is wonderful. He is so passionate, entertaining, and knowledgeable. I would take any class he is teaching.

Conner knows his material well and is very enthusiastic. The topic was very clearly presented and so interesting. He is great at explaining difficult concepts in a way we can understand. I was particularly impressed by his handling of some controversial opinions. He was professional and didn't talk down to anyone. I will always take a session with Connor! Great information to pass on and make a difference.

I always learn so much from Connor. He is so energetic and knowledgeable. Make sure you bring a bag for all the takeaways. It was amazing to get his soil recipe and other goodies. So interesting to learn how common soil and planting practices are not the best for our gardens. Can't wait to see the end results of our plants, veggies, and flowers when we follow his advice.

Conner is the very best instructor - so positive, patient, encouraging and very organized. So much fun for all skill levels. Would definitely do this again.

The class was fantastic. Who knew the soil was alive? One hour was not enough time. Needs to be a longer class. Loved it. Conner is a natural born teacher. Could have listened to him for another hour.

Consulting Reviews

After consulting with Conner Parrish, he recently completed a landscaping and hardscaping project at my property. From start to finish, Conner demonstrated outstanding skill, professionalism, and attention to detail.

Conner worked on building several raised garden beds in my backyard and creating stone borders around flower beds in my front yard. Throughout the project, he demonstrated excellent knowledge of landscaping and hardscaping techniques, as well as a strong understanding of design principles. The transformation of the space exceeded my expectations, and the project was completed on time and within the agreed-upon budget.

What stood out the most about working with Conner was his professionalism and communication skills. He took the time to listen to my ideas and provided valuable suggestions to enhance the design. The final result not only looks beautiful but also complements the overall aesthetic of the home. I appreciate how he kept me informed throughout the process, ensuring that every aspect of the job met my approval.

I would highly recommend Conner for any landscaping or hardscaping project. He is a true professional who takes pride in his work, and the quality of the finished product speaks for itself. I would not hesitate to hire him again for future projects.

Conner did a wonderful design incorporating exactly what my vision was for my landscape. I had specific colors I wanted and his design accomplished just that! Conner is a true professional and a joy to work with!
