The Staff
Nola Schweitz and Betty Schlenker are our two full time designers on staff with over 60 years combined experience. Betty was the original licensed Head Designer when Prairie Floral opened its doors in March of 1974. Betty became the owner in 1977 and moved the business to its present location. Her daughter Nola has been working at her side since she was 12 years old. Nola attended Brainerd Area Vocational Technical Institute and became a licensed designer in 1983. Nola purchased the business from her parents in Nov of 2003. Betty has stayed on as a designer but does much more than designing floral bouquets. This twosome does everything there is to do. They are the sales staff, book keepers, delivery personnel, window designers, maintenance, cleaning ladies and the list goes on and on.
You won't believe all the wonderful things you will find at Prairie Floral and Gifts…you just have to see for yourself to believe how much is in this small store in the middle of Ellendale’s main street.
