Part & Parcel: Kara Hammett - Canton Repository

Dylan Foster, now 21, Ronald Foster, 17, and Nolan Foster, 14. She returned to West Point Market in 2007 after her then-husband was laid off from his job.“They put me in the bakery,” she recalls. “I was a supervisor there, and my boss said, ‘We need some help decorating cookies. You want to try?’ I said, ‘Yeah, I’ll try.’ She told me years later that, ‘I saw something that I wanted to help you cultivate.’ ”Hammett quickly found her love of the arts, particularly pottery, served as a good foundation for cake decorating.“The turntable for the cake is similar to the turntable for the potter’s wheel,” Hammett said. “The movements and gestures and coordination were already there. So it was an easy transition for me to do cakes.” By 2009, Hammett said she was “sucked in” and committed to making cake decorating her career. “I love to cook and I love food, so being able to do edible art was incredible,” she said.West Point Market also is where Hammett met her best friend, Brittany Bergquist. Bergquist started working at West Point Market’s bakery in 2011.“She’s the most talented baker I’ve ever met,” Hammett said.When West Point Market’s West Market Street location closed in 2015, Hammett and Bergquist went to work at different bakeries but still remained close friends.It was Hammett who approached Bergquist about opening their own bakery. “There’s no way I could open a bakery without you,” Hammett recalls telling Bergquist.Bergquist was reluctant but eventually warmed to the idea th... https://www.cantonrep.com/story/lifestyle/food/2021/02/09/studio-bakery-co-owner-kara-hammett-shares-her-local-favorites/4074529001/

How to Get Married During a Pandemic? With Tents, Masks and Fewer Guests - The Two River Times

DJ and florist, but Deo had to procure a tent, caterer, tables, seating and more. They used Brennan’s Delicatessen in Rumson for the food and Bay Ave. Bakery in Highlands for the cake. In the end they spent more than their original budget for the wedding which Deo said is not unusual for a tent wedding.“Don’t be surprised if your budget is going to be a little bit more, or equal to where you were with your venue,” she said, which always catches people off-guard. “You are no longer in a venue with a roof over your head, with air conditioning and heat and tables and chairs and staff and everything else. You are now in the middle of a backyard or farm… and we’re bringing in every single fork, every chair, every plate, every light, every everything, and you’re building this atmosphere or this vibe out of nothing.”“To create that wedding atmosphere and everything that goes into it is a lot of money,” Deo said.The Malloys invited about 185 guests to the October wedding and ended up with about 120, a hundred fewer than their... https://tworivertimes.com/how-to-get-married-during-a-pandemic-with-tents-masks-and-fewer-guests/

Highlands florist urges support for local shops as some take business to West Virginia - WSLS 10

The owner said people who are frustrated with Virginia’s mask requirement and pledging not to wear them while shopping are only hurting small businesses like 'mom and pop’ places.“We’re close to West Virginia and a lot people are just jumping over the border because it’s like nothing ever happened over there, and over here we’re still very restricted, but if you continue to take all of your business to West Virginia, then the businesses here are not going to be here when you come back,” said Erin Huffman, The Flower Center owner.Huffman said small businesses like The Flower Center are just doing what is required in Virginia. https://www.wsls.com/news/local/2020/06/13/highlands-florist-urges-support-for-local-shops-as-some-take-business-to-west-virginia/

Business at local flower grower Three Little Buds is blooming - My Buckhannon

Three Little Buds owner Joanna Webb, who is a chemistry professor at West Virginia Wesleyan College, talked to My Buckhannon from her beautiful gardens, located around her home in downtown Buckhannon.Webb said this is her fourth official growing season, but she has been growing flowers for a long, long time. She said her husband jokingly told her she could not grow any more flowers until she took part of her bounty to a local florist to see if they would be interesting in purchasing some of her blossoms.A market-style bouquet of flowers grown and arranged by local flower grower Joanna Webb. / Photo courtesy Joanna Webb“I had always kicked around the idea of selling flowers to local florists,” Webb said. “So, I took some of my dahlias to Anita’s Flowers of Buckhannon, and they told me they would love to buy local flowers.”She said she learned on the fly about growing flowers and started growing ones she found most beautiful.“I like the market bouquet-style of flowers,” Webb said. “With COVID coming in when most of the flowers were blooming, most of the florists were closed, and I had all of these flowers,... https://www.mybuckhannon.com/business-at-local-flower-grower-three-little-buds-is-blooming/

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

Family members set up a farm stand, sold a few flowers, and figured they’d be forced to let the rest rot.The family then received an email from a West Virginia nursery owner who had an idea and wanted to pass it along to nurseries across the country. The idea: Take flowers in the fields to assisted living centers where residents were living in isolation.Emily Iverson, 21, a family member and Wooden Shoe’s social media coordinator, teamed up with Lexie Criscola, 22, the tulip farm’s marketing coordinator, to make it happen.They created a ticket order on the farm’s web page where, for $15, people could pay for a pot of tulips to be delivered anonymously to an assisted living center.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]-... https://www.oregonlive.com/hg/2020/03/tulip-fest-had-to-be-canceled-but-wooden-shoe-tulip-farm-finds-new-life-for-flowers.html
