Hey there! I’m Rachel, founder of The River Flower. I’m based in New York, grew up in Texas, and was born and raised in Puebla, Mexico. I’ve loved flowers and animals for as long as I can remember, and creating floral arrangements is my way of sharing a bit of that love and happiness with you and your loved ones!
Flowers have always been a part of my life. Near my hometown, there is a “Pueblo Mágico,” a small, colorful village called Atlixco that is known for its ornamental flowers. When I was young, we used to take day trips there, and seeing their flowers always filled me with happiness and awe. I believe that flowers remind us how beautiful and special life is.
I chose the name River Flower to honor my two surnames, Rios (Rivers) and Rivera (Riverbank). Yes, my name literally translates to Rachel River Riverbank!
I also love sharing what I’ve learned and the happiness flowers bring, check out my blog and my monthly newsletter, where I share some tips, inspiration, and floral tidbits. I hope my work brings joy into your life!
