Josette Vest, owner of Bloomers Floral & Gift, admits that Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, and to some extent, Christmas, are the big holidays for business. however, she said, her store has also managed to find a nice Father’s Day niche. “(For Father’s Day) we have junk-food baskets with a grilling theme or sports theme,” said Vest. she said this caters to the father’s interests and favorites, like favorite sports teams or favorite foods. Bloomers also offers a delivery service for gifts, and while it’s sometimes the employees who do the delivering, Vest also likes to make deliveries herself. “I like to get out there and see that end of the action,” she said. “I like to see the look on people’s faces when they receive the gift.” Township or village of business location: Bloomfield Name of business: Bloomers Floral & Gift Street address: 6 Main St., Bloomfield Name of owner: Josette Vest, of South Bristol Number of part-time employees: Two Months business is open: Open year-round Products and services: Bloomers specializes in weddings and events, said Vest.
