Amy Backman

Owner, Spruce Flowers and Home
November 14, 2018
Studio 125 Fisk Building

In 1988, Amy landed an after-school job at a family-owned florist in the small town where she grew up. It was the start of a lifelong interest and, for nearly eight years now, her livelihood. After attaining a degree in retail merchandising, she entered the corporate world gaining valuable experience in product design, display, vendor relations, and marketing.  During her corporate years she began honing a vision to create a new-fashioned flower shop experience. With a belief that giving flowers feels as good as receiving flowers, she decided to follow her dream and open Spruce in 2010. Inspired by good design that ranges from classic, to modern to organic, she leads a team of talented florists and designers to deliver artistically crafted flower arrangements in the Twin Cities.
