Amy first started volunteering with the Wilmington Flower Market the first year we introduced the Beer Garden. Her husband James Malick first started volunteering with the Flower Market and was very passionate about it, inspiring all to get involved. Amy says, “Jim loved the Flower Market and I wanted to support him and his passion to raise money for the children of Delaware”. Ever since Amy has run the Beer Garden and now the Foods with the help and support of friends and family. Amy’s why is James and all of the children it helps in her home state.

 Kristin Jeanson 

 She is new this year on the Board, enticed to join by current members’ exuberant passion and the promise of improving local children’s lives through the many beneficiary organizations. She says " I am not a horticultural expert, but, I am excited to work with and contribute to the amazing team bringing joy each Spring to the greater Wilmington community."

Karin Meis

She has been involved with the Flower Market since 2009 holding positions in Beneficiaries and Treasury. She joined the team after being “strongly” encouraged by her boss at the time whose family was very involved. It has been a very important part of her life that she has enjoyed sharing with her daughter, who now serves on the Board too. Karin says, “We have helped so many children of Delaware over the years and it’s always been my favorite part to hand out the money in the end”. She also likes going back to visit the organizations and having them share the successes of their agencies through the use of our funds she says it is “extremely rewarding”.

Lindsey DiSabatino 

  Growing up in Wilmington, the Wilmington Flower Market was always the highlight of Lindsey's year. Some of her fondest memories were created there. As Lindsey grew older, she realized that WFM was not only about the fun and festivities but also about giving back. The event supports many local charities, and knowing that it helps those in need makes it even more special. Now, Lindsey is thrilled to contribute to the event that gave her so much joy as a child. As a Highlands resident, she is proud to support it as it continues to create memories in her own "backyard" and make a difference for generations to come.
