The family-owned Sisseton Flower Shop is now owned by a new family. Local residents Joey and Bobby Jo Hamm purchased the shop on Oct. 12, 2022, from Jenny and Neal Nelson, who operated the store for more than 16 years. The Nelsons and all the previous staff will continue to work at the shop while the Hamms learn the ins and outs of the florist and décor industries. The Nelsons have committed to about two years.

While Joey is a co-owner nd helps as needed, he has his own business to run, so it is really Bobby Jo who is taking over the business. She is a registered nurse, and was most recently the executive director at Edgewood Assisted Living. After a long career in health care, and the added stress of the Covid-19 pandemic, Bobby Jo was ready for a change.
