On the first Sunday of every August, Friendship Day is recognized around the world. The celebration of purely platonic love even has an international emissary; in 1998, Winnie the Pooh was named the world’s Ambassador of Friendship at the United Nations. The organization officially declared the International Day of Friendship in 2011.

This year’s holiday will take place on August 6. Here, the florists of Laurel Grove Florist in Port Jervis, NY, give some ideas for sharing the love.
