Open Flower Network: Expanding wholesale

Selling to Flower Shops

Dec 15, 2025

For many local flower growers, establishing a relationship with a flower shop can be an effective way to expand into wholesale. In this video, Theresa of Garden Party Flower Farm and Hailly of Camerons Flower Shop chat about how to build and maintain this relationship. Together they offer strategies and tips for finding a good match, setting prices, choosing flower varieties, and preparing your products for delivery.

If you’re a new grower, then find someone who’s new to bringing in local products. Because then you get to grow together.
