At Florida Flower Truck, we believe that every floral arrangement should tell a story—one that’s filled with freshness, vibrancy, and local charm. Our commitment to sourcing the freshest, locally grown flowers ensures that every bouquet we create is not only stunning but also environmentally friendly and long-lasting. But have you ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes to bring these beautiful blooms to you? Let’s take a closer look at our journey of sourcing fresh, local flowers for your arrangements.

The Importance of Sourcing Local Flowers

Sourcing flowers locally has a multitude of benefits, both for our customers and the environment. Here’s why we prioritize fresh, local blooms:

• Guaranteed Freshness: Locally sourced flowers don’t have to endure long shipping times, ensuring they arrive at their peak beauty and last longer in arrangements.
• Supports Local Farmers: We work closely with local flower growers, helping sustain small businesses and strengthening the community.
• Eco-Friendly Choice: By reducing transportation distances, we cut down on carbon emissions and support sustainable farming practices.
• Seasonal Variety: Local sourcing allows us to provide seasonal blooms, offering a unique and ever-changing selection of flowers throughout the year.

Our Process of Sourcing Fresh Blooms

Ensuring top-quality flowers in every bouquet starts long before they reach your hands. Here’s a step-by-step look at how we source and select the freshest local blooms:

1. Building Relationships with Local Growers

We believe that strong partnerships lead to the best flowers. That’s why we collaborate with trusted local flower farms that share our values of sustainability and quality. These farms specialize in growing flowers under optimal conditions, ensuring that every stem is nurtured with care.

2. Handpicking the Best Flowers

Unlike mass-produced flowers that often lose their vibrancy due to long transit times, our flowers are hand-selected at their peak. We visit our partnering farms regularly to inspect the crops, ensuring that only the freshest, most vibrant blooms make it into our arrangements.

3. Emphasizing Seasonal Blooms

To provide unique and exciting floral arrangements, we embrace seasonality. By choosing what’s naturally blooming in each season, we ensure that our flowers are at their healthiest and most beautiful.

Here’s what you can expect in different seasons:

• Spring: Tulips, daffodils, peonies, and ranunculus
• Summer: Sunflowers, zinnias, dahlias, and lavender
• Autumn: Marigolds, chrysanthemums, asters, and celosia
• Winter: Amaryllis, holly, poinsettias, and winter greenery

4. Eco-Friendly Harvesting and Handling

We are committed to sustainable harvesting practices. Our growers avoid harmful pesticides and focus on organic farming methods that protect both the flowers and the environment. Once harvested, flowers are kept in temperature-controlled environments to maintain their freshness until they reach our hands.

5. Bringing Blooms to You

Once we’ve sourced our flowers, they are carefully transported to our Mobile Bouquet Bar and floral design studio. Our team then works on creating beautiful, handcrafted arrangements that showcase the natural beauty of each bloom.
