The Boerma Family
The Boerma family is in the flower business since 1896. In that year, the family started growing and selling flowers in Maastricht in the south of Holland. In 1985 the family started to conduct courses in English in Aalsmeer. From all over the world professionals come to the school, individually as well as in groups. For over 30 years now, Boerma Instituut® has been specialized in giving national and international professional floristry courses. Teachers at Boerma, such as Gregor Lersch, Sue McLeary, and Frédéric Dupré are very experienced and capable in teaching, demonstrations and giving workshops, in countries all over the world.
Boerma Floral Design on YouTube
During the Boerma flower arranging online demonstrations, teachers show their skills during a live stream on YouTube. Mike Boerma edits the videos using a video editing app in a shorter format for you to watch at any preferred time. During the following session, Mike creates a hand-tied bouquet, a foam-free arrangement fit for a hotel or restaurant and a big flower arrangement for events.
