designer of the year
Each year the Kentucky Florists’ Association host its annual Kentucky Designer of the Year Contest during the annual convention. This contest is the premier floral design competition held in the state and allows designers to showcase their talents through three popular floristry categories (wedding, sympathy, and arrangement). The four designers with the highest scores after the preliminary round will compete in a live, on-stage, surprise box challenge to determine the Kentucky Florists' Association Designer of the Year.
Congratulations to Chase Mosko KMF of Chase Mosko Design in London, Kentucky for being named the 2019 KFA Design of the Year.
