We at Middletown Florist & Gifts would like to take this opportunity to thank all local artists who show their work in our shop.

The fourth annual Art Reception was held March 25 in honor of our local artists.

Villa La Brenta was on hand to pour a glass of wine for shoppers and artists alike.

While many businesses would have you believe 2009 was a bust, we are happy to say it proved to be a record year for Middletown Florist & Gifts.

We say: Thank You!

We are a single-location, independent store dedicated to courteous and thoughtful service and to finding unique products that honor the creative spirit in all of us and in all of nature.

You will find that a large percentage of our selections come from small companies and from independent artists and craftspeople.

We like their personal involvement with the product(s) and their willingness to work with us to guarantee your satisfaction with any item you purchase.

We welcome your comments and suggestions. We wouldn't be here if it were not for all our loyal customers and artists.

After the holidays passed we went through the shop and discovered that over 75 percent of our shop is priced under $25. So again, thank you and we look forward to serving your needs in the future.

Tina and Tenae Stewart own and operate Middletown Florist & Gifts.
