With the pandemic looming over the city, Kate Purnett of City Love Flowers felt the need to engage in more community-oriented projects. On April 22, 2021, she is re-launching her urban flower boutique as a social enterprise.
Kate Punnett, founder of City Love Flowers, creator of the Elderflower campaign, which was recognized by Awesome Ottawa and showcased by Ottawa Matters, is a multidisciplinary artist, activist, and community volunteer who gives back to the 613 daily in myriad ways.
August’s Awesome Ottawa award goes to the Elderflower Project, an initiative to bring flowers to isolated seniors; and building a social movement to do so at an even greater scale next summer.
