Flying Bear Farm + The Original Founders
Flying Bear Farm was the original 3/4 acre flower and herb farm owned and operated by Benjamin Courteau and Melissa Brown, the founders of Flying Bear Flower Shop. They are still nestled in the wooded hills on the edge of Langley, WA on South Whidbey Island Known as the “village by the sea” Langley is a thriving arts community and is a popular weekend destination. On Labor Day Weekend, 2017, they created the sweet brick + mortar shop in downtown Langley called Flying Bear, which provided a direct connection between their flowers and customers all year long! They offered hand-grown flowers, medicinal herbs and locally foraged greenery, and specialized in floral design magic, steeped in a green aesthetic rooted deeply in the beauty of nature and working with the land, that featured their heirloom botanical products. It fortunately also became a favorite, magical space for many to visit over the 9 years of their stewardship.
As of October, 2026, Melissa has handed this stewardship over to the new owner, Norma Fickel, a local artist and so much more, with the same dedication to magic, nature and community!
