Harvest Your Thanksgiving Table

If you've been tapped to host Thanksgiving this year, you already know you've got your work cut out for you. It can be a total joy to bring everyone together in your home, but it's no easy feat. One of the main considerations you have is where to put everybody who does come, whether you have to add chairs to your dining room set-up from the kitchen or improvise a kid's table to the side. We think it's the food that requires the most effort, but in many cases, it's the dining logistics. At Central Square Florist, we believe that crowning your Thanksgiving table with a stellar centerpiece is the most fun part of organizing it. Read More about Harvest Your Thanksgiving Table »

Patriotic Flowers for Veterans Day

Our town doesn't skimp when it comes to celebrating Veterans Day. The Boston area has a dozen celebrations and ceremonies on the calendar this year, which makes us at Central Square Florist very proud. We've been honoring those who served in our U.S. military in one form or another since 1919 when Veterans Day was known as "Armistice Day" and centered on commemorating the end of WWI the year before. As it evolved into what it is today, so did the tributes. We have parades, observances, and even 5Ks devoted to honoring our most important patriots. But the fanfare can also come in the form of a bouquet of patriotic flowers, something meaningful, respectful, and intended to bring happiness to the worthy recipient.
