Give our elders their flowers while they're still here.

Flowers is a small membership community for family caregivers and the elders they love — brunches by the water, dinners at one long table, and an hour of honest talk when the week has been heavy.

Membership checkout opens soon — nothing is charged yet.

Caring for someone you love is beautiful, heavy work — and it can be lonely work. Flowers exists so it isn't. Founded by Sharawn Connors of Mahogany Homes, who is caring for her own Nana, it gathers caregivers and elders around tables in and near Oakland — to eat well, to be seen, and to give our elders their flowers while they're still here to smell them.

However far the stream flows, it never forgets its source.

Coming up

Come to one before you decide anything. The brunch is free — bring your elder.

Membership

$20 a year. That's the whole of it.

Membership keeps the gatherings going — the room, the flowers on the table, and the seat for someone who couldn't otherwise come. Members save their seats in the app, carry their tickets on their phone, and are welcomed in by name at the door.

Rather pay in person? Come to a gathering and see Sharawn — that counts just the same.
