Pugh's Flowers is once again sponsoring Camp Good Grief. The fundraising event is now in its twelfth year and we are so excited to continue to do something that benefits those in our local Memphis community, including customers, employees, friends, and family members. This year's Camp Good Grief will take place during the weekend of October 3. It will include both an in-person and virtual 5K run/walk with funds from the event going to Camp Good Grief. This is the Mid-South’s bereavement camp that was designed for children. Since 1999, Camp Good Grief has helped more than 1,500 children, ages 6-12, who have lost a loved one. And, over the past year with the pandemic, grief has become an even more critical topic to address for those of all ages. Camp Good Grief has been able to continue thanks to grants and donations from individuals, organizations, and partnerships with local businesses like ours. The goal this year is to raise $25,000. We need your help! You can register here. You can also register at the event. The race will occur on Sunday, October 3rd at Memorial Park Cemetery. The address is 5668 Poplar Avenue, Memphis, TN 38119. There will be a Kids' Zone, dove release, awards presentation, and post-race party. Come spend the day with us! Come by and get some flowers to wear during the competition or a bouquet for your favorite participant. Our fall floral collection is here with some beautiful ways to show your support, including sunflowers and fall roses. Camp Good Grief is just one of many Memphis community events we commit to each year. From our inception, helping our neighbors and fellow community members has been a hallmark of our Memphis flower and gift shop. We look forward to seeing you at this event and many others this year as we hope to get back to more in-person events where we can raise awareness and money for important issues that impact so many of us.

Get Ready for Labor Day Festivities in Memphis with Fresh Flowers from Pugh’s Flowers
September is just around the corner and with it comes Labor Day on the first Monday of the month. This year, that falls on September 6th. While some see Labor Day as a three-day weekend that serves as the unofficial end to summer, others recognize that the day was created to honor the American worker. Many businesses actually close down on Labor Day, which gives many the day off to enjoy rest after working so hard. However, not everyone is so fortunate like those in retail and other service businesses. Business owners often don't get Labor Day off either. Whatever the case, Labor Day is the opportune time to show others how you appreciate what they do in helping our local and national economy. This includes small business owners who provide jobs and generate work for more people. From freelancers to employees, there are so many people out there, working hard throughout Memphis and across the country. We are so thankful for all the talented individuals who work hard in our Memphis flower shop. We also are here to help you show your appreciation this Labor Day with flowers or provide you with event flowers for an upcoming Labor Day event. Here are some ideas for using flowers this Labor Day. For business owners with employees you want to reward for their hard work, consider a bouquet each. We have many wrapped bouquets and cube vase bouquets that are a beautiful and cost-effective way to show your thanks this Labor Day. If you have a small team, we also have a wide range of special gift packages that include flowers and other thoughtful products. These package deals provide a way to say thank you and show appreciation for all the dedication your staff delivers. Even if you are not a business owner and just want to send love to someone you know works so hard, any of these floral gift items also are a nice way to transmit that sentiment. It could be an entrepreneur, freelancer, or just hard worker but it's a friend, family member, colleague, or neighbor who you know deserves some extra kudos. We also can help you with Labor Day event flowers for any Memphis venue, including your backyard or local Memphis park. Adding flowers provides a special touch to add to the overall Labor Day party. We offer centerpieces and other floral displays. Call us to make your appointment today! For other flowers and floral gifts, you can order in-person at our Memphis flower shop, call us, or use our online order form found on our website. We offer local Memphis pick up at our florist location or contactless delivery.

Celebrate Others During August During National Smile Week and Romance Awareness Month
With so much going on around the country and world that has created stress not to mention all the day-to-day worries all of us face, it's good to focus on positive things to help alleviate some of that fear and concern. August has us all getting started on the right foot with putting kindness first and being more thoughtful with two special occasions. These are National Smile Week, which is the second week in August, and National Romance Awareness Month where we celebrate month every day in August. In doing so, we may be in the habit of then continuing to put kindness, others, romance, and other positive behaviors first. Not only will we help others, but we will also feel better practicing these behaviors. If you plan on celebrating one or both of these August occasions, your favorite Memphis flower and gift shop has some wonderful and thoughtful ways to show others you care about them. Let's start with National Smile Week, which is occurring right now. Our Complete Gift Package Collection is a great place to start because it has so many cheerful and generous packages to choose from. Each package includes a beautiful bouquet along with other goodies, such as greeting cards, baked goods, balloons, spa products, and/or stuffed animals. Another option sure to make your recipients smile is our Sunflower Collection. The sunflower has to be one of the most cheerful flowers that Mother Nature has gifted us. Always inspiring to our floral design team at our Memphis flower shop, we now offer a wide range of floral designs and gift packages that include sunflowers. Now, let's talk romance. We've got a wide selection of floral designs, bouquets, and gift packages to show your love. For example, our Someone Loves Me package in red includes a large arrangement of red roses along with a cute plush skunk, a balloon, and greeting card. We also have stunning floral arrangements that include other premium flowers like orchids and lilies. Many of our other floral designs are also romantic and overflow with beautiful flowers like hydrangea in pastel colors. Let us know how we can help you bring more romance and kindness to those around you. For ordering, call or visit our Memphis flower shop. You can also use our website to place your order for these two special August occasions.
Celebrate Elvis Week 2021!
In 2020, it was disappointing to not have all the festivities that Memphis and Graceland usually have around Elvis Week. This has been a tradition for many years in Memphis and one that had not been interrupted until 2020 and COVID--19. However, this week, we are happy to report that it looks as though we are back to a full celebration of everything Elvis and we couldn't be more excited! According to the Graceland website, Elvis Week 2021 promises to bring us a lot of fun events and ways to celebrate the King. The events will be held during Elvis Week, which is from August 11th to August 17th. Some of the events include: A 50th anniversary concert celebrating Elvis’ Nashville recording sessions Blue Hawaii Luau Ultimate ETA Contests and concerts Elvis tribute artists Elvis in concert on the big screen Fan experiences Celebrity guests There will also be some online events for Elvis lovers who cannot attend Elvis Week 2021 in-person. There are tickets and packages available online. It will be so exciting to be able to celebrate together with others once more. If you are attending in-person and would like to leave some flowers at Graceland or celebrate the magic of Elvis with loved ones, our Memphis flower shop and website are both here to help you. For those celebrating at home, you can also decorate in celebration of Elvis with stunning floral displays, balloons, and more.

Celebrate Friends and Make New Ones on International Friendship Day
Things and experience are both nice to have, but something that beats everything else out in terms of value is friendship. Your friends are invaluable because they provide you with comfort, support, advice, and fun in a way your family and others cannot do. While you may be thankful for them each and every day, International Friendship Day on July 30th is a good day to let your friends know just how much they are loved. Here are some ideas on what you can do to make International Friendship Day memorable: Do something different than the normal routine with your friends. These unexpected events might include a show or weekend trip versus the usual movies and a meal out. Or, try something new like a pottery class or skydiving for more adventure. Think about what you've talked about doing but never have and then plan that. Instead of getting a greeting card, write a note the defines what the friendship means to you. This will be more meaningful and memorable for your friend or friends. Friendship so often involves laughter, so do something that can make your friend laugh, such as send them a funny meme or video. If you can't see them in-person, then call or FaceTime your friend or friends so they know that you are thinking of them. Make every day a friendship day, showing them appreciation and doing your best to be just as good a friend to them as they are to you. Of course, getting some of your friends a gift is also a nice gesture on International Friendship Day. Our Memphis flower and gift shop as well as our website offer you many great gifts for your friends: We have all types of plants and plant packages that may include a green or blooming plant along with a greeting card, balloon, or other add-on item. If your friend is a foodie, consider our charcuterie basket or if they love to be pampered, send them a spa gift package. Any flowers that match their preference makes a good gift or you can be more symbolic and get them yellow roses, sunflowers, or any other yellow flower since this color is a symbol of friendship. International Friendship Day is also a good day to actively seek out other people to be friends with and expand your social circle. It's also a good opportunity to practice the traits of friendship with everyone around you, emphasizing kindness and. thoughtfulness for everyone you come in contact with.
