Joelle is originally from Garyville, but has been in Ascension for over 20 years. She’s a mom of two humans and a mom of 5 rescue dogs. She has been a licensed florist for 21 years and originally worked for the Floral Cottage back in 2003 for six years. She started back to us earlier this year and boy are we glad to have her! She is an excellent cook and always so thoughtful with sweet gifts and tasty treats! She also has the best sense of humor that helps keep us going on those long days.
