About Us

We are Wildflower & Rose Bookstore, an event and pop up only bookstore based in Petersburg, IL. This dream started between two new friends that envisioned a lovely little bookstore joining the other incredible businesses of our beautiful town. As two working moms, we are taking this endeavor slow, but slow & steady wins the race, right? 

We cannot thank you enough for taking the time to learn about this little dream of ours. We hope you'll shop our shelves online or at our next event.

Our Founders

Cheyenne is our Wildflower and Laura is our Rose, the two sides of this venture.

Cheyenne is a veteran of the Illinois Army National Guard, mama of two, Bestselling Author, and lover of all things bright and colorful.

Laura is a mom of three, aspiring writer, nonprofit & workforce development nerd, and chronic hobby cycler.

Together the two enjoy sharing their love of this community & literature through the bookstore.
