Saturdays bring freshness at the farmers market - The Tide

You can take your time and get your coffee in the morning, and people will be a lot more helpful to you than at a grocery store. It’s more personal.”Linda Miller agrees. She works for Keswick Creamery, whose tent at the market houses at least 20 different kinds of cheese and offers free samples of them all. Unusual cheeses among her selection include hot and spicy Dragon’s Breath, soft and crumbly Bovre, and quark, a German-style cream cheese. “I think when you come to the market, you get to talk to the person that was actually producing the product, so it’s very intimate—it’s not like the grocery store and you have no clue where... https://thermtide.com/8970/features/saturdays-bring-freshness-at-the-farmers-market/

How Newport Became the Most Exciting Beach Town in New England - Travel+Leisure

Rizzo explained. The menu has gone from nachos and quesadillas to burrata from Narragansett Creamery and locally grown squash blossoms stuffed with house-made ricotta. Rizzo was combining some big, architectural monstera leaves with a bouquet of gladiolus and sunflowers grown on a flower farm just north of town.From left: A surfer arrives for an afternoon session at Sachuest Beach, a.k.a.

FerryRizzo's penchant for loose arrangements and unexpected combinations — instead of the hydrangeas and rose balls that were once de rigueur in a place like Newport — has proven popular. Because the town is one of America's premier wedding destinations, she's especially busy in summer, but she is in demand all year long. From La Forge Casino, we walked a few doors down to the Audrain Automobile Museum, another of her clients, which showcases some of the rarest and most precious cars on earth.

Berkeley Florist Remains Bitter That It Can't Do Curbside Sales While Whole Foods Sells Flowers Next Door - SFist

Last week, Ms. Simon told a reporter from ABC 7 that she planned to reopen Ashby Flowers for curbside pickups on May 8 along with other florists in the state just in time for Mother's Day, in defiance of Alameda County. But she later relented and chose to remain closed.In announcing the loosening of retail restrictions in his county on Wednesday, San Mateo County health officer Dr. Scott Morrow said, "The virus continues to circulate in our community, and this increase in interactions among people is likely to spread the virus at a higher rate. Whether these modifications allow the virus to spread out of control, as we saw in February and March and resulted in the first shelter in place order, is yet to be seen."As of Thursday morning, San Francisco had 1,999 confirmed COVID-19 cases, with 65 people hospitalized, and Alameda County has 2,178 cases with 79 people hospitalized. San Mateo County has 1,536 cases with 63 in the hospital.Related: Mayor Breed Gives Green Light For Most SF Retail to Open For Curbside Sales and Delivery on MondayPhoto: Facebook... https://sfist.com/2020/05/14/berkeley-florist-bitter-about-curbside-retail-rules/

Tommy Varela said Heavenly Creations in Ketchikan told his mother the business would not provide flowers for his wedding ceremony after learning there were two grooms, The Juneau Empire reported.Between 100 and 200 people attended the June 5 demonstration, lining the street and holding signs expressing support for the LGBT community.Kathleen Varela said she phoned the same florist her son used to get a boutonniere for his prom when she was seeking flowers for the nuptials in August.“I said, ‘It’s a wedding for two grooms, are you comfortable with that?’ And there was a long and awkward silence and then ‘No, I’m not comfortable with that,'” Kathleen Varela said.There was no exchange of names and she is not sure who was on the phone, but the florist has not previously expressed antipathy toward the LGBT community, Kathleen Varela said.“I guess I just wasn’t prepared for the ‘no,’ especially since we’ve done business,” she said.Heavenly Creations did not return messages from the June... https://southfloridagaynews.com/National/alaska-rally-supports-gay-couple-denied-service-by-florist.html

Social Distancing: The Big Flower Fight - KVRR

Watching A Floral Design Show With A Florist Is Entertaining May 25, 2020 This long weekend is a good chance to catch up on some shows.Even if you’ve already went though your queue, streaming services aren’t out of new stuff to drop.Which brings me to what I did most of the weekend. Netflix dropped a new floral design competition show called “The Big Flower Fight” last week.Teams of amateur designers from different backgrounds have to compete making wild, huge displays using different types of plants each episode.It’s impressive as heck. It always looks like the designs are gonna look like garbage, but then they snap together into something beautiful at the last second.I got through six of the eight episodes this weekend with my girlfriend, who happens to work in the floral industry.And oh man, it’s fun watching something with someone who knows the ins and outs of what they’re doing.She could barely contain her excitement.At one point she just started excitedly spouting gibberish. “Wrpgheriogh... https://www.kvrr.com/2020/05/25/social-distancing-the-big-flower-fight/
