Saskia, the daughter of former mayor John Marjoram, currently lives in East Somerset, but her heart is very much in Stroud, where many of her flower essences are produced.
Saskia says: “At the moment I am a flower essence producer and practitioner…and I have been involved with plants all my life, mainly as a professional gardener and florist, as well as being a mother of two sons. .
“I’ve been creating Essence for over 20 years. Originally with someone else, it was our side business… and about 6 years ago I started the company on my own and built the brand. I changed it and it became my only “job”…jokingly, it’s like having a boyfriend who thought he knew everything and we ended up living together.
“Since then, the depth of my knowledge and sense of the essences in our product lineup has increased exponentially, and I feel like I really understand what each essence has to offer. You may be surprised.
