Getting To Know Us A Little

What separates Crow River Floral and Gifts from other Florists?  Our business motto that we operate by is that we promise to deliver a more personal touch to your floral needs.  Whatever you order, we give it our utmost attention, and make sure to add all the little details that let your loved one know how much you care! 

We are a local small-business florist located in Hutchinson MN.  As such, we are free to be as unique and creative as we want!  Community is very important to all of the employees here at Crow River Floral, and we are always excited to support other small local businesses with donations of flowers for their events! 

   Crow River Floral is a unique business because the building that we are located in, is actually a historic landmark.  One of the oldest houses in Hutchinson, it was declared a historic structure over 30 years ago and precautions were taken to ensure its survival.  It has been ruled that for preservation's sake, it can not be lived in.  The family who originally owned the house, decided to lease it for businesses under the strict instructions that no changes be made to the structure.

 Soon after the house was on the market for leasing, a floral business moved in: Cindy's House of Floral Design.  Cindy used the house as a business for roughly 20 years.  The great thing about life is that nothing ever stays quite the same, and so after years of owning the business, Cindy decided that it was time to move on to new things.

 This brings us to Jan 15, 2008.  Jeanne Schealler, a florist formerly of Ohio, had been running her business out of her home for roughly 20 years.  Just like Cindy, she was looking at opening a new chapter in her life.  the two of them met, and the business was transferred.  Since Cindy was no longer the owner, it made little sense to keep the old name.  Cindy's House of Floral Design became Crow River Floral and Gifts.  We still carry on the tradition of  creative floral arrangements and unique giftware.  We have added new elements such as wedding and event decor including backdrops, ceiling lights, and table linens.  We have become famous for our angel-themed giftware, stepping stones, various figurines.  The most important thing though, is that our customers, old and new, trust us with creating gorgeously creative arrangements for them and that we strive to make all of our customer's special moments perfect.
