Get Ready for Labor Day Festivities with Flowers

Labor Day is just around the corner on the first Monday of September. This year, that falls on September 6th. It's a day to celebrate all the American workers do for the companies they work for and their efforts to fuel local and national economies. Although most see Labor Day as the official end to summer and a three-day weekend to relax and enjoy, it's important to remember the reason it exists and bring awareness to the value of American workers, including their talent and energy. This also includes business work who often work endless hours to sustain their business. Here in Cedartown and Rome, Georgia, our flower shops also celebrate our talented staff and their hard work.

Flowers can be a part of that through decorating the house for a festive feel, adding flowers to summer weddings and events, and sending flowers for all the special occasion days and personal celebrations for this season.
