Flowers Galore Gifts & More, a florist shop in Kimberley, recently changed hands. Sue Brown is the new owner and manager, and she is excited about her new store. Brown brings mountains of experience to the business, having owned a flower shop in downtown Calgary for over 20 years.

“We have always loved the flower business, because you really get to know people,” said Brown. “In Calgary, we have provided flowers for people as couples, then for their weddings, their children and even their children's weddings.”

Brown said she is looking forward to the same type of business in Kimberley. She is managing the store and her husband, Paddy, will take care of the wholesale side and ordering. The shop offers full florist services for any event and carries a selection of unique gift items. Greyhound also operates out of the shop.

The couple own and manage Willie's Weenies and Advanced Stove and Fireplace in Kimberley too.
