Tulip Fest had to be canceled, but Wooden Shoe Tulip Farm finds new life for flowers - OregonLive

So far, the farm has delivered 6,000 pots of tulips to assisted living centers in Mount Angel, Molalla, Canby, Albany and Eugene.“The farm will never see back the lost revenue from the festival,” said Iverson. “The $15 covers just a bit of the costs it takes to do this delivery. But this is not about money, this is about goodwill.”Criscola said a person can request tulips be delivered to a specific assisted living center or let farm officials figure out where the tulips would bring a bit of joy.“We reach out to a center and figure out the protocol for a delivery,” she said. “We make sure everyone in the center gets a pot. We deliver them to the front door, and then step back.”Iverson estimates all the tulips will be given away within the next couple weeks.“It makes us feel like we are doing something for the community,” she said.[embedded content]-- Tom Hallman Jr; thallman@oregonian.com; 503-221-8224; @thallmanjrSubscribe to Oregonian/OregonLive newsletters and podcasts for the latest news and top stories. https://www.oregonlive.com/hg/2020/03/tulip-fest-had-to-be-canceled-but-wooden-shoe-tulip-farm-finds-new-life-for-flowers.html

Sad to see her forced to move, Berkeley community steps in to build flower shop owner a new space - Berkeleyside

The community is against this,” said da Silva, who immigrated from Brazil in 1995. “But I have the community. I have the love.”That’s one signal she’s received loud and clear. The Albany resident has been a neighborhood institution since opening the shop in 2002. She’s also the sole caretaker of husband Roy Bleiweiss, a former publishing attorney who has Alzheimer’s. As he has grown sicker, da Silva has found it increasingly difficult to care for him and work enough in the store to afford the rent.Da Silva is moving into a much smaller space. Which is OK, because it’s a gift.Todd Jersey is a Berkeley architect who heard da Silva was closing her doors, looked down Gilman Street, and came up with an idea. A block east, under the elevated BART tracks and across the street, sat the burned-out husk of a former kiosk, at Gilman, Santa Fe and Masonic. It was destroyed by fire in the early 2000s.Jersey went to work Sunday refurbishing the kiosk with two friends, while da Silva hurried to get out of her space up the street. The goal – for which they’re looking for additional volunteers – is to spend the next five Saturdays rebuilding the 120-square-feet kiosk into a place where da Silva can continue her business.Jersey not only has the blessing of the property owner to refurbish the kiosk. He also got him to waive da Silva’s rent for two years, so she can get back on her feet.Todd Jersey (standing) and Chris Delphey building a new kiosk for Ana Flowers and Gifts. Photo: Tony Hicks“This was Heidi’s Flowers,” said Jersey about the previous tenant as he took a break from stripping charred wood and wiping off years-old black ash from his hands and forearms. “She was Persian. Urban myth says someone firebombed it after 9/11. When Ana had to leave, I thought ‘Why don’t we redo the shed?’ (Owner Robert Kelso) gave her two years of free rent. That’s Berkeley. There’s no rapacious developer involved.”Sunday’s work crew was three strong, which they hope will increase. A question about the structure’s size drew quizzical looks.“I don’t know,” said Jersey, grabbing a tape measure. “Let’s find out.”The verdict was about 120-square feet, which may or may not require city involvement, according to an... https://www.berkeleyside.com/2019/04/03/sad-to-see-her-move-berkeley-community-steps-in-to-build-flower-shop-owner-a-new-space

Aces of Trades – Griffin’s Floral Design - The Newark Advocate

But he added, “I wouldn’t have it any other way.”  He and co-owner wife, Sarah, oversee four locations: Pataskala, Newark, New Albany, and a wedding studio in downtown Columbus.  “Relationship building is my true passion, always has been,” Griffin said. “I love to talk, unfortunately sometimes to a fault. I love having the freedom to meet new people, businesses and organizations. I love technology and learning how to incorporate it into our business. And I love event, party and wedding work, from big and showy to small and simple.” “Russ and I,” Sarah added, “have been fortunate to be able to work where God has led us. We like the flexibility that ownership gives us. We also have the sole responsibility of whether we ‘make it or not.’ We both like that challenge.”  “Becoming a florist has been very rewarding,” her husband agreed. “I wouldn’t change a thing, even after all these years.” “It’s funny,” he thought aloud, “that you often end up where you start.” For more Griffin’s Floral Design corporate store is located at 378 S.
