Shopping Local ~ Thanksgiving Flowers

Thanksgiving Day is a holiday celebrated primarily in the United States and Canada. Thanksgiving is celebrated each year on the second Monday of October in Canada and on the fourth Thursday of November in the United States. Because of the longstanding traditions of the holiday, the celebration often extends to the weekend that falls closest to the day it is celebrated. Several other places around the world observe similar celebrations. Historically, Thanksgiving had roots in religious and cultural tradition. Today, Thanksgiving is primarily celebrated as a secular holiday.

In the United States, tradition in the eyes of a florist is that families celebrate together with turkey and all the fixings, but would not be complete without the flowers on their tables.  

Florists are very busy taking orders this next week for all the festivities.  Candle arrangements are very popular for the centerpieces in beautiful rustic shades of fall colors.  There are so many fall flowers to choose from this time of year.  

If you are traveling and letting someone else do all the cooking & preparing that perfect dinner, you should always remember the host/hostess and bring them flowers for the table.  You will be pleasantly surprised of how grateful they will be.  Everyone LOVES flowers!  They give off emotions and happiness as well as beautify the atmosphere.
