Business is blooming at local flower farms - Toledo Blade

Jane Berry, of Posey Jane in Ottawa Lake, and Laura Brewster, of Barn Swallow Farm, said they hear similar positive comments about their locally grown bouquets at farmer’s markets.“We’re kind of following the paradigm of local food,” said Lindsay Daschner, who supplies area florists with a comparatively larger operation in Fairest Flowers. “People are like, ‘I want to know where my food comes from.’ The next thing is: Where do my flowers come from?”But there are practical reasons to look local, too, as growers like Ms. Daschner and florists like Mrs. Geiman are quick to point out. Local growers can often provide a wider variety of blooms, including more delicate ones that would not weather an overseas journey well.Vibrant and multi-petaled dahlias, which have been blooming in local fields and greenhouses recently, stand as one example.Local growers can also test out less-than-common varieties, and in turn offer those to florists at a reasonable price, with a versatility that larger overseas farms often cannot.“Maybe we can grow just a little patch of something that might be expensive to ship in,” Mrs. Brewster said. “For us it’s no big deal. [Florists] can afford to play with it.”And, as both florists and consumers tend to appreciate, local growers can generally offer fresher and consequently longer-lasting blooms than their out-of-country counterparts. Whereas an imported flower might be cut immaturely, so that its petals will be ready to open by the time it’s unpacked from a dry box, growers like Ms. Daschner or Miss Van Houtte can afford to wait for ideal conditions.“Our flowers are at peak ripeness,” Ms. Daschner said. “There’s no compromise in color or fragrance or vase life.”Local operations range significantly in scope. Fairest Flowers, which began under Dean Miller about 30 years ago, operates as a full-time business year-round through heated greenhouses. Ms. Daschner, who works with Mr. Miller, said they supply about 75 area florists.That compares to Ms. Berry, of Posey Jane, who first planted her half-acre or so of flowers beside her home three years ago. Her interest was piqued when she and her sister did their own floral arrangements for a handful of family weddings. Ms. Berry sells primarily at farmer’s markets and considers her flower business something of a hobby and side job.Somewhere in between those two is Barn Swallow Farm, where Mike and Laura Brewster tend fields totaling 2 to 3 acres with the help of their five children. The children range in age from 5 to 15, and each keeps an eye on their own special crop.The Brewster family has been supplying local florists since the late ’90s and, this year, began selling their own bouquets at a farmer’s market in in Whitehouse. (Mrs. Brewster and 10-year-old Rosemary are the family floral designers.) It’s a full-time operation for the family in the summer, when Mr. Brewster, who is a science teacher at Otsego High School, can dedicate the time to fields of dianthus, lisianthus, celosia, and the always popular sunflowers.The Associatio... http://www.toledoblade.com/Gardening/2017/08/08/Business-is-blooming-as-buy-local-movement-spurs-growth-at-flower-farms.html

Flower shops spring back to life ahead of Mother’s Day after state lifts restrictions - The Boston Globe

The luxury florist Winston Flowers reached peak capacity for Mother’s Day orders on Wednesday in Boston, Greenwich, Conn. and New York City, citing “changes in the supply chain and our commitment to following all safety and health guidelines by limiting our staff in order to keep their workspaces distant.” Any new orders for the holiday will be delivered the following week.Flower orders typically hitch rides in the cargo compartment of passenger planes, allowing for efficient travel at bargain prices. But with limited international passenger flights between the United States and flower powerhouses like the Netherlands, Colombia, and Kenya, there are very few cost-effective ways to ship flowers now, even when there is a demand.Advertisement“That is the latest battle. Can you even get the flowers on a plane? Usually, I can have any bulb flower from Holland within two days. Or a rose from South America,” said Jackie Levine, manager of Central Square Florist in Cambridge, which has been passed down in her family over four generations. “Those that came took a week.”figcaption class=" img_caption margin_horizontal_0--mobile margin_horizontal_0--... https://www.bostonglobe.com/2020/05/07/nation/after-months-empty-shelves-closed-shops-florists-spring-back-life-ahead-mothers-day-surge/

Mid-Hudson region kicks off Phase 1 of reopening as business owners adjust to new normal - WPIX 11 New York

WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. — Like many small business owners, New York On PAUSE left Mimi Fong in financial ruin.“We had zero business coming in while we still had rent to pay, utility, every single expense on going,” said Fong.Within two months, her interior renovation company, Luminoso Designs, lost nearly a million dollars in revenue. As Westchester and six other counties in the Mid-Hudson region enter Phase 1, Fong’s business is open and she’s ready to rebound.“We survived 2008, I am confident we’ll survive this one as well,” said Fong.In Phase 1, businesses reopening include construction, manufacturing, retail locations offering curbside pickup, wholesale trade and agriculture.This means people will be getting back their jobs.Westchester was one of first counties in the tri-state area hit hard by the pandemic.County Executive George Latimer said Tuesday the disease is under control.Numbers of hospitalizations and deaths have gone down dramatically, which is why the region is moving forward.County leaders will continue to follow strict guidel... https://www.pix11.com/news/coronavirus/mid-hudson-region-kicks-off-phase-1-of-reopening-as-business-owners-adjust-to-new-normal

A Flower Shop Reinvented to Reopen - The New York Times

Elizabeth Wardman opened Wisteria Rockridge in 2015, specializing in custom arrangements. She’s had to pivot to premade bouquets at the moment.Credit...Kelsey McClellan for The New York TimesShe tried anyway. When the store opened on Mother’s Day, Ms. Wardman did her best to nod to the county’s rules — or not completely flout them. The metal rolling gate out front was still down, and the veranda, usually overflowing with a colorful assortment of seasonal blooms, was empty. The store was selling premade arrangements, not its hallmark custom bouquets. Customers were not allowed inside. A wooden bench blocked the doorway. For a day, at least, she ran an open-air business.“I keep thinking I’ll get through this, and then I’ll think about how I’m going to approach the next step. Then the rules change, and so I have to make another adjustment,” she said. “It’s a very confusing time.”Wisteria, like other San Francisco Bay Area businesses deemed nonessential, had to close its doors when Alameda County, which stretches along the east side of the bay, and six other counties imposed shelter-in-p... https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/12/business/coronavirus-small-business-california-reopening.html
