About Us
Meet Amanda
OK the about me section! Nothing worse than having to write about yourself – right?
Its not an easy thing to do but oh well here goes! Yes this is me Amanda Owner of Crabb & Co botanicals.
Although Crabb & Co is a relatively new business I’m am in no way new to the business of floristry.
I started my career when I wanted to leave school in year 10 – I remember Dad saying to me you can leave if you find a trade you have a passion for.
My beautiful Mum and Sister encouraged me to look at floristry and now we are here 30 years later! And yes I’m actually more in love with what I do now than I think I ever have been! I actually mean that.
I have owned my own florist shop in Freshwater many years ago then was blessed with my 4 amazing boys Ben, Jack, Cooper and Max, anyone that knows me knows they are the light of my life.
So after a break having and raising my boys it was time for me to return to my other love Floristry!
I was lucky enough to have an opportunity to manage a large flower market for the next 15 years! I moved into the Wedding department 7 years ago and run this with great passion. But it was now time to work for myself and here we are Crabb & Co Botanicals was born.
So whether you’re getting married, having a party or event, need fresh or dried flowers delivered for a friend or home, a beautiful unique gift or indoor plants, drop us a line we would love to help.
Look forward to meeting you, with love and flowers
Amanda
