It's been a challenging year for small businesses, but there's still much to celebrate. Our merchants shared what they're grateful for as Thanksgiving approaches.
Kelly Acock
The Flower Market
For the Flower Market, we were able to find our permanent home at 13426 Santa Fe Trail Dr. in Lenexa next to so many fun businesses! Renovating has some major challenges, but we are thrilled to be more a part of the Lenexa community and be closer to the Public Market.

Grateful for the community: a consistent group of guests that continued to support our business both in business and emotionally, just cheering us up with chatting, and support. They feel like extended family.

I’m thankful for the outpouring of support from our regular customers, and everyone that has been coming back in just to support local. I think that people understand deep down what small businesses are going through and want to help.
