Main Street Flower Baskets

June through September
Main Street and Prince Lane, Bristol, VT

The Bristol Main Street Flower Baskets project celebrates Spring by beautifying the lamp posts on Bristol’s Main Street and Prince Lane.

By enhancing the visual aesthetic of the Downtown with an eye-catching display of fresh flowers, the baskets are a beautiful decoration that can be enjoyed by the local Bristol community and all visitors to our town.

Help us promote Bristol as a great place to shop, dine, live, work, and visit, with the Main Street Flower Baskets project.

Bristol Bucks

A LOCAL CURRENCY THAT CAN BE USED AS A GIFT CERTIFICATE IN MOST BRISTOL BUSINESSES

Why is it good to shop locally?

  • Money spent at a locally-owned business stays in the local economy and continues to strengthen the economic base of the community.
  • Locally-owned businesses support local organizations via donations of items, time and money.
  • Local businesses hire local people, use local trades people, pay local taxes and cater to local needs, not national trends
