Wellesley in Bloom flowering through Mother’s Day (May 10th)

May 6, 2026 by admin

SPONSORED CONTENT: Wellesley in Bloom kicked off last weekend and is still alive with a celebration of spring. The town-wide event features floral fun, pop-up experiences, and creative collaborations throughout Wellesley’s shopping areas. The idea simple and fun—Wellesley in Bloom invites everyone to stroll through town and discover unexpected moments of beauty, creativity, and local charm.

We bopped around town over the weekend to enjoy the energy In Bloom brought to town.

Mahjong & Canasta Pop-Up run by The Canasta Connection at black and blue Steak & Crab. Partial proceeds benefited the Accelerated Cure Project. Goody Bags were stuffed to the brim with generous gifts from participating stores and businesses and a potted orchid from Winston Flowers.
