Thank you for helping us share an amazing 75th Anniversary Celebration.

The Central Street florist has been owned by the same family since 1981 and sold flowers to Evanstonians since 1949.

09/11/2024

Jim Preston founded Preston's Florist in 1949, establishing a family-run enterprise on Central Street, aided by his wife, sons, and grandchildren. The business underwent changes in ownership, first to Bruce and Rita Kuda in 1970, and then to Ron and Shirley Callgreen in 1981. Today, their daughter Terri Cornell serves as business manager, with Julie Heinz as store manager. We welcome you to join us on Saturday, September 14th, from 10:00 to 1:00, as we mark 75 years of business on Central Street. Preston's Florist

What is a FAVORITE Mother's Day gift you either received (or gave) from your kids? How long did you keep it?

I'll go first. The fun "school projects" the kids made. I have a clay pot with flowers made of construction paper and pipe cleaners, using the kids fingerprints or dried noodles as flower pedals, with their pictures in the middle. I still have them, 20 years later. I still enjoy them.

Hats off to Mom! 👒
