Incredible Flower Arrangements at the Pop Up Shop
Smile Farms welcomed the season by bringing a summer Pop Up Shop to Ocean Club, Atlantic Beach. The organization is dedicated to providing meaningful work opportunities for adults with developmental disabilities at local farms and greenhouses.
1800Baskets.com partnered with Smile Farms and 1800Flowers.com to help make the shop a success and to raise awareness for the organization. 1800Baskets donated containers of various sizes for the Pop Up Shop. Smile Farm’s employees planted the containers with beautifully arranged flowers and plants grown at Smile Farms at IGHL located in Moriches, New York. The arrangements were available for purchase at the Pop Up Shop and every one of them sold!
Continued support is essential so that the organization can raise awareness for a much deserving population. Want to help? Get involved today by attending one of the upcoming events!
