Less than a week until Valentine's Day. You still have time to order, BUT....
ORDER LOCAL!!!!
When you purchase from "Order Gatherers" (1-800-flowers, FTD, etc...)you are NOT supporting local business.
( Hint they usually don't have a local address and usually have a toll free number.)
In actuality, they charge generally higher prices, have poor customer service, and the only way they can fill them is by calling one of us to fill the order. ( I have had 15 of these calls today alone. 🌹 ) The problem here is that they keep all of the profit. The other problem is that they do NOT support the community. They do not contrubute to community centers, churches, and sports teams. They do not support the other businesses in the community. In our case that means farms, potters, and crafters to name a few. This means if you don't support local, eventually you will not be able to obtain these goods & services, because our businesses will not be here to fill the order.
PLEASE, support you local businesses. In our area, that means :
Falling Run Flowers & Design LLC
Petals & Stems LLC
Tiffany's Flowers & Gifts
( My apologies if I missed anyone. )
