About Flower Casita
We are a full-service florist servicing Sonoma, Marin, and San Francisco Counties. Our shop is filled with locally sourced flowers, plants and gift items. We feel that supporting our local farms is imperative to the health of our community and the ecology of the planet. We look to our farmers for unique elements and color tones that we can elaborate in our designs.
Our design style is often called organic and wild as we weave natural elements into bouquets that move through and hold space. Our work emphasizes a farm-to-table ethic, sourcing and care of perishable goods, and a focus on sustainable and seasonal materials.
Our Story
In 2013, Tali Bouskila and her brother Chris opened a pop-up florist at an old firehouse in San Francisco, creating fresh arrangements and bouquets with seasonal flair, garnering instant popularity. This quickly flourished into a wedding and events-based floral design company, which they named Thistle. As the Thistle business grew, so did the need for a brick and mortar space. Tali began her search for an appropriate location in the Bay Area, and increasingly found herself drawn to Petaluma for its proximity to the fields and farms that provide the branches and flowers for her work.
That brings us to Flower Casita, named simply for being just that- a physical space that houses and supports events and celebrations, classes and workshops; a space for creativity and retail, a designer’s studio, and a gathering place for the community.
