It's always a treat seeing our knits on screen including one of the main characters in this series wearing our Fishing hook vest (In season 2).

A really well made series to watch for the whole family!

Hi my name is Andy Chen, owner, operator and trainer at Sea Level Athletics. We are a Cross Fit gym and fitness community that has been serving Richmond and Vancouver residents since 2019.

At Sea Level athletics we have a diverse community of members that are dedicated to improving their fitness. Our main offering is one hour classes that combine weightlifting, gymnastics and high intensity cardiovascular movements. These classes are designed to be accessible to people of all levels and coached so that everyone can follow along. We have teenagers, seniors, office workers and professional athletes all training alongside each other.

I love my job and find my position extremely satisfying. The first reason is that I get to help people achieve things they thought were impossible whether that be their first pushup or pull-up or showing up to class on a regular basis and breaking a sweat. It's always exciting to see people build confidence in their physical ability and become healthier in the process.

The second reason is that I get to watch the development of our community. It's great to watch our members hype each other up to try and lift a little more weight or push a little harder for an extra rep. We celebrate each other’s personal records and when someone fails a lift, we give them props for having the courage to try. Doing a tough workout with a group of people inevitably brings them together and many great friendships have been formed inside the walls of our gym.

COVID-19 has brought us many obstacles, fortunately we have been able to remain open, but it has changed the way we operate. We follow many of the standard COVID protocols such as mask wearing and social distancing. In addition our classes have de-emphasized high intensity movements that require heavy respiration and shifted towards technique focused body-weight and weightlifting exercises.  

Supporting local business is important to me because local businesses take care of their communities through gestures both small and large. We make conversation with our customers and get to know them personally. When a beloved customer runs into trouble, we are often more flexible, understanding and willing to help.

Hi! I am Kelly Dunbar a floral designer and the owner of Botany and Bloom. Our happy place is an industrial space located in Vancouver, BC. It is a creative zone with interesting projects and ideas always in the works. It is pretty much the space where my dreams and ideas are being lived out daily. Working with beautiful flowers and having found a career I love is something I am truly grateful for.

Relationships are the core of a successful business and we are happy to have them all around us. We work with other amazing vendors, talented neighbours, and many corporate and private clients we are so grateful to have. I try to support local as much as possible in my home life and work place. We use local couriers, greenhouses and suppliers along with some amazing Vancouver talent that provide us with botanical products that complement our shop.

Our primary work is floral design for events, weddings and film. This past year we have incorporated gifts, plants and individual floral orders to our product list as we shifted from large scale events to intimate occasions. Styling homes and businesses with botanicals, in addition to dried and fresh flowers, has been well received and fun. The Covid pandemic has definitely been a challenge but with every challenge there is opportunity, growth and new relationships to build.
