Meet Casee! She's a Comet senior and is in her 3rd year of the district's Agriscience CTE Program. As part of her 3rd-year work study assignment, she has developed Casee's Creations & Produce, a floral arrangement business based in the Coleman Community Market within the Greater Midland Coleman Family Center. Her business is supported by the Coleman Agriscience program. Students grow the flowers and produce in the Ag programs' pollinator field in our land lab. Casee's earnings from her shop flow back into the Ag program, further investing in her store and supplies.
Casee says that Year 3 of the Ag program has allowed her to blossom and hone in on what she loves -- working with flowers. She has even earned her certificate of floristry, which will help her with her future plans of continuing her floristry business.
Casee loves to create arrangements and enjoys tackling custom projects. She even took orders for custom corsages and boutonnières during Homecoming season! Her absolute favorite flowers to work with are sunflowers and marigolds, and her favorite arrangement to date is her pumpkin design, pictured below.
