Summer Weddings

This has been a summer full of flowers.  Despite the rain.  Not only from our garden to sell in the shop, but flowers for weddings!  Laura was commissioned for flower arrangements for several small weddings in July and August and has been gaining confidence as the customers appreciate her work. Here is a sampling from the latest; just finished yesterday, with a mix of flowers from the garden, local flower farms and the local wholesale supplier.
