CONWAY — North Conway has a new in-town florist shop, though the garden-design aspect of the business has been around for decades.
After doing professional garden design, installation and maintenance out of a Chocorua location for 20 years, last month Jordon Hewson opened Designed Gardens Flower Studio retail shop in a turn-of-the-century building on Main Street across from the Eastern Slope Inn in North Conway Village.
