FARMINGDALE, NY — Flower Shop of Farmingdale won best florist on Long Island for a third straight year in the Bethpage Best of Long Island Awards.
The flower shop, at 316 Main St., won the award for the first time in 2022. It has not been beat since.
“We are honored to win Best of Long Island for the 3rd year in a row!!” Jeanette Zimmerman-Schmidt, owner of the store, told Patch. “Most don’t realize the hard work that goes into receiving a beautiful arrangement at your door!! It is so nice to feel appreciated and loved by winning this award consistently!”
Zimmerman-Schmidt lends the shop’s consistent award wins to treating each order like it was their own bouquet of flowers. Every piece is created by a skilled designer with many years of experience, and then it is inspected upon wrapping for quality and all components that should be included before being sent for delivery, she said.
“We would like to thank everyone for being diligent in voting for us each day!!” Zimmerman-Schmidt said. “We work tirelessly to make sure each piece gets the special attention your loved one deserves. We always do our very best and put our heart into each arrangement and it is so nice to feel the appreciation coming back to us from our community. Our next big holiday is Valentine’s Day and it’s coming quickly, just one week away!! Make sure your Valentine feels loved by placing your orders early to ensure a beautiful delivery!”

The florist also sells chocolates, teddy bears, and balloons — items that Zimmerman-Schmidt called “gifty” and said are nice add-ons for flower arrangements.
The flower shop was established in 1984, and the florist deals in projects, weddings, events, and more, according to the Bethpage Best of LI page. The shop is open seven days a week.
