Hi all. I just want to let you know that on or about March 1st, there will be new owners of Flowers by the River.

Emily and JB McCollum of Wild Hill Flower Farm in Califon will run the flower shop and I will continue to work part time for a while so I can stay creative and help support Emily in her new venture. Besides……itll be hard to completely leave our wonderful town and the great friends I’ve made over the past 22 years working here.

Please continue to come in, chat and meet the new crew.
Thanks for your support and this job.

How to pass on to the next generation the collectibles no one wants. A customer had the ingenious idea of how to gift them.

We’ll be open through Saturday from 10-5:00 and closed Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and the 26th.
