To give back to the community, The Poppy Caravan will be donating 10% of the sales to the Healthy Bellas Foundation, a prominent nonprofit organization with deep roots to the Miami Latina population and dedicated to creating opportunities and programs for young adults with special needs. According to The Poppy Caravan founders Stephanie Landess and Paula Edwards, “We conceived The Poppy Caravan in the hopes of gathering together women in unity and we hope this is just the beginning of working together with this worthy cause.”
ABOUT THE POPPY CARAVAN
Founded in 2021 by Stephanie Landess and Paula Edwards, The Poppy Caravan is an elevated pop-up event experience designed more as a garden party than a traditional trunk show featuring a carefully curated mix of brands that celebrates all things style, home, and family. It travels to key destinations in the US annually with scheduled dates at Charleston, SC, followed by stops at Sun Valley, Idaho, Nantucket in the summer, and the Colony Hotel in Palm Beach in the winter.
The Poppy Caravan reflects Stephanie and Paula’s shared interests and extensive experience in travel, managing and hosting events, as well as their innate talent for recognizing potential in unique brands. It developed out of wanting to build a community of women – married, partnered, single, divorced, widowed or empty-nester. And to give back to each community, a portion of sales is donated to a chosen local non-profit.
The first year drew such crowds eager to discover treasures from small objets d’art to big ticket buys that plans are underway to expand the scope of the merchandise or add more city stops. But Stephanie and Paula promise that no matter what, they intend to maintain the same personal touch that make The Poppy Caravan events such gracious, friendly, and one-of-a-kind gatherings.
