Cosentino: Walking through the floral minefield - Auburn Citizen

You could have saved the $14 or $20 service fee by selecting a florist in the receiving town and calling direct. Or, better yet, you might have called one of our locally owned brick and mortar florists who belong to a wire service like FTD or Teleflora, and had them handle the transaction.

Muncie Origins: Normandy Flower Shop continues family florist tradition - Ball State Daily News

We try [to keep supplies in stock.] I try more now than ever to carry everything there is. So many people, instead of just calling us, a brick and mortar actual flower shop, go through what we call order gatherers… They pretend to be flower shops, but they aren't even a flower shop. They're just getting your money.”Even with the changing industry, Benken said she enjoys the challenge when someone gives the shop the creative freedom behind a flower arrangement. “[I enjoy] when we can do something creative, and it’s not a picture of something [a customer] has seen online,” Benken said. “They give you some money, they give you a general idea and you just run with it.”Contact Pauleina Brunnemer with comments at pdbrunnemer@bsu.edu or on Twitter @pauleina15. ... https://www.ballstatedaily.com/article/2020/02/daily-lifestyles-normandy-flower-shop

New floral shop in one of the oldest sections of Opelousas signifies revitalization - Daily World

Moss Floral and Gardens hosted a grand opening party last week at the new business inside a quaint, brick antebellum structure that, over the years, has served as law offices and the Jim Bowie Museum, which included parish artifacts in the 1960s. Lex Jagneaux estimates the building his business is in, which includes pine and cypress flooring, probably dates back to sometime around 1830, although he is still researching the exact year it was built. Next door to Moss Floral and Garden is the acclaimed Jim Bowie Oak that Lex Jagneaux estimates is more than 200 years old. Included on the side of the massive live oak tree, with root tentacles that extend far underneath the pavement, is an open, bricked courtyard that Jagneaux notes was once the floor of a blacksmith’s shop. The couple's floral business is located between the Wild Child Boutique, located in a 19th Century building, and the new Chicory’s At The Palace Café that is expected to open this month.

Victoria's Mobile Flower Shop is always in bloom with a new brick-and-mortar store - Tribune-Review

Up until recently, Smith was running the business out of her Brookline basement, where she lives with her husband Josh and their dog Harris.Victoria’s Mobile Flower Shop now has a brick-and-mortar store in Avalon.It’s a bright and sunny space located at 643 California Ave. Years ago, the building housed a barber. When he retired from the hairstyling business, his wife transformed it into a flower shop.The shelves are relatively bare — lined with a few locally made products, including soaps, T-shirts and candles — but that will change after the holiday season when Smith has time to make the place blossom.Since opening in early December, she’s hosted classes on everything from block-printing and hand-lettering to wreath-making and cocktail mixology. The studio also is available to rent for private parties. There’s a large white table in the center of the store where people can work and mingle. Harris, a friendly pup who looks like a Muppet come to life, greets customers at the door.“More than anything, I want this to be a community space,” Smith says. “I even had a sign out front last week that said, ‘Don’t come in here for flowers. Come for conversation and a cup of coffee.’ ”Giving back to the community is important to Smith, which is why she launched an online Pay It Forward campaign. People can donate money through PayPal and, once the pot reaches $25, Victoria’s Mobile Flower Shop will deliver a bouquet to someone who could use a morale boost. Smith has already compiled a list of nursing homes and hospitals in the area.Aside from making deliveries, the truck will be parked for the winter. Smith is taking requests from individuals and businesses who want to book it for events when the warm weather rolls in.She hopes the Daihatsu – which boasts the license plate FLOWERS – is a welcome sight in every Pittsburgh neighborhood and inspires people to pick a bouquet.“A lot of times people think flowers are a luxury they can’t get for themselves,” Smith says. “But, when you make them accessible and it’s something you can grab one or 40 of, it makes your day.”TribLIVE's Daily and Weekly email newsletters deliver the news you want and information you need, right to your inbox.More Allegheny Stories... https://triblive.com/local/pittsburgh-allegheny/victorias-mobile-flower-shop-is-always-in-bloom-with-a-new-brick-and-mortar-store/

Sunflower selfie craze is center of Springfield festival - Burlington County Times

So that very next season we thought why not turn our little driveway patch into a five-acre field and really put on a show.”Johnson's Locust Hall Farm is located at 2691 Monmouth Road.

F.C. Florist Sends Bouquets to Congresswomen Targeted by Trump - Falls Church News Press

Born in the Soviet Union-controlled Uzbekistan, Rabinovich and her family traversed through multiple countries before finally getting clearance to come to the U.S. She would grow up in the New Jersey/New York area, earning her citizenship by the time she was 16 and would later go on to get her degree in visual merchandising and interior design. AdvertisementsHer first job was working in a flower shop, an occupation that was always seen as a fallback for Rabinovich whenever she was in between gigs. She later realized she enjoyed working in flower shops more than any other job and started her own business out of her apartment in Arlington. Rabinovich wound up purchasing Galleria Florist in July 2015 when searching for a production space to operate out of, and last December she became an owner of Nosegay Flowers in Washington, D.C. — a former employer of hers.She re-emphasized that the flowers were merely a show of goodwill, but did add a general message to all Americans that, “The U.S. is a melting pot. It stands for inclusivity, not exclusivity. That’s what’s going to keep us going; diversity and the knowledge our immigrants bring to the country.”Share this:Comments comments... https://fcnp.com/2019/07/31/f-c-florist-sends-bouquets-to-congresswomen-targeted-by-trump/
