Wholesale market selling local flowers blooms in Spokane - The Spokesman-Review
Tuesday, August 13, 2019Wednesday morning at the Spokane Conservation District.Local flower farmers launched the weekly market this year to provide florists, event coordinators and brides with an alternative to imported flowers.“It’s more about community and caring for one another and not competition,” said Kim Lango, flower market organizer. Lango also owns Prairie Sky Farms in Cheney, which boasts organic peach and apple orchards along with a selection of flowers. The flower business is something Lango said fascinates her, and she said knowing the history of where Americans buy flowers is important.Over 90% of flowers are imported because the U.S. government gave incentives to countries in Central and South America to grow flowers rather than growing cocaine, Lango said.This seriously depressed the cost to import flowers, hurting U.S. growers. When that trend combined with an appetite among American buyers in the 1990s for small roses and gerbera daisies, Lango said the U.S. flower market was devastated.But she is hopeful that it is on its way back.“We have the ability to grow every type of flower in the continental U.S.,” Lango said. And she said there has been a recent push to revive the American flower market because it’s more sustainable.
