Instructor: Samantha Paradis

Samantha Paradis founded Sam's Stems in 2023, driven by a passion for using the art of flowers to foster a more interconnected community. Starting at local farmers markets, Samantha showcased her nature-inspired art in addition to offering unique experiences like fresh flower bars and custom dried flower crowns at New England festivals and events. As Sam's Stems blossomed, she expanded into private events and weddings, catering to diverse esthetics. Committed to supporting local flower farmers in Massachusetts and maximizing the life of each bloom through drying and preservation, Samantha blends sustainability with artistry in every creation.
