Meet The Founder
Hi, I’m Tiera- founder, floral designer, and hopefully, your new favorite florist.
Originally from Greensboro, North Carolina, I made my way to Raleigh to attend NC State University (Go Pack!). My path there wasn’t exactly linear, and honestly, I think that’s part of what makes TG Floristry what it is today.
I studied Global Sustainable Development, with minors in Psychology and Spanish, before continuing on to graduate school in Agricultural and Extension Education. Along the way, I worked with AmeriCorps and the County Extension Center, connecting small farmers with resources, supporting community programs, and exploring the many ways food, agriculture, and people intersect.
Then came flowers.
What started as a part-time job in produce and floral quickly became a creative outlet I couldn’t put down. During graduate school, floral design began as a hobby and slowly, almost organically, blossomed into something more.
One arrangement became another. A hobby became a handful of weddings. Then came subscriptions, a growing team, and a presence in local grocery stores. Somewhere along the way, I realized I wasn’t simply designing with flowers—I was building something of my own.
Today, TG Floristry is where all those seemingly different pieces of my story come together: flowers, creativity, sustainability, agriculture, and community.
Hence our mission statement
"Thoughtfully Curated, Ethically Sourced, Community Centered"
We believe flowers should feel personal, joyful, and a little unexpected. Whether we're creating an everyday arrangement, designing your wedding flowers, hosting a workshop, or simply helping you celebrate life's moments, our goal is to make the experience feel just as beautiful as the flowers themselves.
Welcome to TG Floristry. We're so glad you're here. 🤍
