HELENA — West Mont Flower & Trading Company in Helena offers people with developmental disabilities the opportunity to learn and develop basic vocational skills in a structured environment.

Leading up to Valentine's Day, the staff has to hustle to keep up with orders.

Each order is made with love, and helps provide a purposeful job for people with disabilities.

Robin Farrell, one of the supervisors, said, "When you see them walk to a door with an arrangement and somebody excited to get their flowers, like everybody is, that really completes the process, and when the client comes back to the car with a huge smile and the client's completely proud of what they did and what they helped out together. You know, that's pretty special."
